Features:

  - Lower input lag (compared to DOSBox inside Proton)
  - Steam features working as expected (e.g. Steam Cloud,
    Controller settings or recording of time played)
  - Better fullscreen support, especially on multi-monitor setups*
  - Steam Overlay working out of the box*
  - More configuration options and better defaults*
  - Automatic detection of MIDI hardware, with software
    synthesiser used as fallback
  - Automatic MIDI setup for supported titles
    (click Play and enjoy pre-configured MIDI music)
* - compared to vanilla DOSBox

This project is developed in parallel to https://github.com/dreamer/luxtorpeda - Steam Play compatibility tool for running games using native Linux open-source engines.
