AbyssEngine
dsp: No such audio device
I managed to get it to run on Arch Linux, I needed to compile the engine from source (as of 2022.09.02) and copy the binary's and the libraries over the ones provided by the release files.
I was getting the same error message as seen above this message:
[2022-09-02 15:30:23.960] [critical] [abyssengine.cpp:85] Caught exception St13runtime_error: dsp: No such audio device
So compiling allowed me to start the game, BUT now there is another problem that halts any possible game play (as far as I can see)

It works with ALSA for me (I'm compiling on Gentoo)
How did you manage to compile it with OSS?
I didn't, that was the error message I was getting from the binary for linux in the releases section here. After I cloned the repository and installed the missing libraries it complained about, it compiled just fine and ran just fine as well.
That just means that we should remove the linux prebuilt binary. At least until a bigger part of the game is implemented, and reintroduce it then not as a binary, but as appimage/flatpack, because not every linux is ubuntu
