So, I have steam downloaded from the ubuntu software center and have been playing antichamber, which is linux enabled and doesn't require wine/playonlinux or anything to run. It used to run absolutely fine, launched no problem. Suddenly it won't do anything: I click the 'play' button, and a little 'running' message shows next to the name for a few seconds. Sometimes the screen distorts a little so that it looks like the game might open (you know how when you launch a game what's on the screen distorts a little before the actual game starts running), but then it doesn't. No error message, nothing, the running message disappears. Same thing happens when I try to launch the Stanley Parable, which is also linux enabled.
I tried backing up my game files, uninstalling and reinstalling steam, same thing happens. I can't find the clientregistry.blob
file (and I did check using hidden files and everything). What's going on? This just started happening one day and I have no idea how to fix it. Thanks in advance for any help.
EDIT: Result of entering command 'steam' in terminal
