How to
It turns out that recording replays works well on Linux, it was just disabled for some reason.

You can enable it on Linux by replacing Assembly-CSharp.dll and Assembly-CSharp-firstpass.dll inside the SUPERHOT_Data/Managed/ directory with their counterparts from the Windows build (tip: keep a backup of the Windows and Linux DLLs, just in case). You need to install and use steamcmd to download the Windows build of SUPERHOT:
sudo apt install steamcmd steamcmd +login USERNAME PASSWORD +@sSteamCmdForcePlatformType windows +force_install_dir /tmp/SUPERHOT_windows +app_update 322500 validate +quit
Replace USERNAME and PASSWORD with your actual Steam account name and password.

Then you need to download a static FFmpeg build from https://www.johnvansickle.com/ffmpeg/ and save the ffmpeg binary as SUPERHOT_Data/FFMPEGEncoding/ffmpeg.exe (you can also build it from source, just be sure that it's built with libx264 enabled).

You can now start recording a replay with F5 after you finished a level, just like you would on Windows. The videos will be saved in ~/.config/unity3d/SUPERHOT_Team/SUPERHOT/Screenshots/Replays
All steps
Everything step by step to copy and paste into your favorite terminal:
# install steamcmd sudo apt install steamcmd # download SUPERHOT for Windows: # USERNAME = Steam username; PASSWORD = Steam password steamcmd +login USERNAME PASSWORD +@sSteamCmdForcePlatformType windows +force_install_dir /tmp/SUPERHOT_windows +app_update 322500 validate +quit # move into Linux's SUPERHOT "Data" directory cd ~/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/common/SUPERHOT/SUPERHOT_Data # backup DLLs mkdir -p Managed/backup/linux Managed/backup/windows cp Managed/Assembly-CSharp* Managed/backup/linux cp /tmp/SUPERHOT_windows/SH_Data/Managed/Assembly-CSharp* Managed/backup/windows # replace Linux DLLs cp -f Managed/backup/windows/* Managed # remove "SUPERHOT_windows" directory rm -rf /tmp/SUPERHOT_windows # download FFmpeg mkdir FFMPEGEncoding cd FFMPEGEncoding wget https://johnvansickle.com/ffmpeg/releases/ffmpeg-release-64bit-static.tar.xz tar xf ffmpeg-release-64bit-static.tar.xz cp ffmpeg-*/ffmpeg ffmpeg.exe rm -rf ffmpeg-release-64bit-static.tar.xz ffmpeg-*/

And if you want a shortcut to the "replays" directory:
mkdir -p ~/.config/unity3d/SUPERHOT_Team/SUPERHOT/Screenshots/Replays ln -s ~/.config/unity3d/SUPERHOT_Team/SUPERHOT/Screenshots/Replays ~/"SUPERHOT Replays"
Problems
The videos that are uploaded aren't processed. I guess they aren't uploaded correctly or something.
