Thats a shame, thank you for trying to get it to work on GNOME!
i have the same issue with ubuntu 22.04 and GNOME.The README mentions this:
IMPORTANT: Right now this doesn't work if there is anything drawing to the background (like a compositor, gnome, kde, nautilus, etc)
See #8
Wallpaper Engine Background(s)
Backgrounds i've tried; 3052905511 2991628385 1311534675 2980088441 1373816444
Console output
When a background cannot be loaded, it's usually due to some unexpected error that is logged into the terminal. Please attach the program's output so we can properly debug it if needed.
Screenshots
If you have any screenshot of it working on Windows that'll help so we can compare both outputs
N/A -- Currently don't have screenshots of the Windows variants at the time of writing this.

Additional context
Running
./linux-wallpaperengine [Workshop ID]
does work and opens an external window of the wallpaper as intended. my issue is assigning the wallpaper to a display with the./linux-wallpaperengine --screen-root eDP-1-0 --screen-root HDMI-0 [Workshop ID}
command, the terminal will claim that the GPU is rendering it however, nothing changes with my desktop.
