So, it turns out being careful with pasting random commands into the terminal isn't just a saying to keep in the back of your head. 
I decided to switch to a different Linux Distro (Arch), and was trying to access my backup that I somewhat-haphazardly put together. I ended up unintentionally running a command that was going to delete all of my data, including stuff for Spewfoxy's. I didn't notice the problem until it informed me it was essentially wiping the drive. I quickly cancelled it, and fortunately, I don't think anything of value was lost, but the damage was done, and the drive was corrupted. 
I'm currently recovering the files, but the tool I'm using is generating a few thousand folders that I'll have to sort through to find the source code and more importantly, the access token to my online repository that I made for the game. Then I'll have to delete the folders that are full of junk data to free up space for doing stuff.
In better news, I'm planning on adding some Vulkan Helper libraries into my code (which I've heard make Vulkan a lot more high-level and removes a lot of boilerplate, like Microsoft's Direct3D 11) and I've decided on most of the final graphical effects that'll make the graphics of the game look stunning (hopefully) without a super hefty hit on the framerate.
