Summit is a short project full of physics puzzles and platform jumping. Made with the Unreal engine you have to reach the top of the summit by using whatever means possible. There is more than one way to reach the top!
Follow my step-by-step guide on installing, configuring and optimizing Summit in Linux with PlayOnLinux.
Note: This guide applies to the itch.io version of Summit, Other versions may require additional steps.

Conclusion:
When testing with stable Wine or staging Wine I was getting xaudio errors. So I tried GloriousEggrolls Proton fork and it worked perfectly! Hopefully Wine developers will eventually add the features from Proton into stable Wine at some point. The game can slow down a bit if you look up because it has to render the entire tower, but that is about it. My GeForce GTX 1060 was able to handle it with the use of DXVK.
