The game works for me but I use an Intel based graphic chip. Since the
--software-renderer option works for you too, it is likely that this is
an issue with your Nouveau drivers. The GetFileContent warnings are
harmless because those files don't exist at first start and are later
stored in ~/.local/share/blockattack.

The only way to debug this issue is to get a backtrace. See
https://wiki.debian.org/HowToGetABacktrace for further information.
Please also attach a kernel log to the bug report.

dmesg > kernel_log.txt

With those information we could reassign the bug report to
xserver-xorg-video-nouveau. However, since Debian already ships the
latest version of nouveau, I suggest to submit this bug report upstream
as well because it is most likely not Debian specific.
