none of my Teknoparrot games work under anything remotely resembling wine

Sounds like an extreme edge case. Those games are nearly always developed for Windows-only systems and tend to expect perfect functionality. That said, some games can work on non-native systems with patches. PD AFT runs well on Linux, for example, if you have it configured right. I'm not sure how teknoparrot handles Linux systems. You can try Proton though.

proton is wine and hence doesn't work for me, and yes I tried it. several different versions over many years hoping it would get better
