@eniko if you haven't done anything special to make it possible for the game to go in fullscreen, but it does work to an extent. it's often safe to assume it's a problem with the desktop environment. in which case it's probably not a problem on your end.
the only way to confirm that is by testing other desktop environments.
which is pretty easy to do.

installing multiple desktop environments on one system is usually not recommended because they all have their own file managers, image viewers, text editors, etc. so you'll end up with a lot of applications that serve the same purpose and default application settings (what file extension to open with which application) get messy. but in a case like this that doesn't really matter.

sudo apt install gnome-shell plasma-dekstop should install both Gnome and KDE Plasma.
They also have their own "display managers" (login screens), most distros will ask the user which they want to use. I don't think it matters which one you choose, they can both be used for both desktops. In GDM (gnome display manager) there will be a button with a gear icon in the corner of the screen before selecting your user. Clicking it will allow you to select the desktop environment you want to use. SDDM (simple desktop display manager) does something similar

some distros will show some desktops twice, once with x11 and once with wayland (unless you're using GDM with nvidia).
if you use an nvidia GPU, choose x11. if not, it doesn't matter which one you choose.
for as far as i'm aware, nvidia drivers for wayland aren't great. though that might have changed.
if i recall correctly, FNA uses SDL. SDL supports both x11 and wayland, so it's not something you need to worry about. if it works on one, it should work on the other
