Is this NixOS again?

AL lib: (EE) ALCplaybackOSS_open: Could not open /dev/dsp: No such file or directory

I suspect that this line might have something to do with it. libGDX uses LWJGL 3 for rendering and audio, which in turn wraps OpenAL. Something is going wrong with OpenAL here.

Could you set the environment variable ALSOFT_LOGLEVEL=3 and then attach the logs from running the game again here? Running export ALSOFT_LOGLEVEL=3 before ./gradlew game should work.

Assuming it is NixOS, this is completely untested but maybe also give this a try (I added pulseaudio - same instructions as https://github.com/MovingBlocks/DestinationSol/issues/693#issuecomment-1784090234):

let
  nixpkgs = fetchTarball "https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/tarball/nixos-23.05";
  pkgs = import nixpkgs { config = {}; overlays = []; };
in

pkgs.mkShell {
  packages = with pkgs; [
    git
    temurin-bin-11
    libglvnd
    libpulseaudio
  ];

  LD_LIBRARY_PATH = "${pkgs.stdenv.cc.cc.lib}/lib:${pkgs.libglvnd}/lib:${pkgs.libpulseaudio}/lib";
}

Yeah, it's NixOS unstable.

It worked.

Hmm, is there any documentation on the game engine?

@jozefcifre sort of - we have a fair amount of stuff in the wiki: https://github.com/MovingBlocks/DestinationSol/wiki

I don't think it is going to cover any OS-level quirks or troubleshooting though - just fairly general Java dev and related :-)

Alternatively if you mean LibGDX or LWJGL then yeah they have huge websites of their own to cover probably about anything.

That's what I meant, thank you.
