There have been a few times in my life where I pirated a game or album, and ended up liking them so much I legitimately purchased them.
I literally just did that with backpack hero - the windows version through wine was having problems that made the game unplayable if I alt+tabbed, so I bought it for the native Linux version.
Gamescope generally helps with alt+tab issues.
How is Backpack Hero by the way? I played the demo years ago and liked it but haven't bought the actual game yet.
The demo is basically a different game tbh.
There's an ok storyline, progression, more characters with very different equipment and backpack quirks, a town builder, and each stage is unlocked through questing, instead of just being thrown in and expected to go all the way through every run.
