I am trying to run 0ad downloaded from package manager and it starts without a GUI. I can see the icon on my taskbar and btop, but no window of any kind appears at all. The command line logs: 
 

$ 0ad 

FILES| Main log written to '/home/rena/.local/state/0ad/log/mainlog.html'

Please find attached the relevant logs. There are no error reports anywhere.

In order to eliminate the possiblity of pacman hosting broken packages or system libraries at play, I built A28 from source and the same occurred. This is why I suspect something is wrong with my GPU driver. However, all other applications run fine: Ollama AI deployments, Steam games ...

 

Let me know if any other system files are needed.

Do the alt+tab if you can see 0A.D menu, if you can see you see it, this is just idk testing.
Can you try the flatpak version, you need flathub and maybe flatseal too so you can tweak the game.
Open and see, otherwise if it still doesn't work go to terminal and type: flatpak run com.play0ad.zeroad
Check any error, still nothing? Then I don't know, I'm using AMD. then again be sure to experiment with flatseal.
Good luck, hope it works, sneeze*
