Another bonus: Many very good open source games can be added to SteamDeck by:
Some suggestions: Luanti, Empty Epsilon, Free Civ, Tux Racer, most retro emulators.
I might be slightly biased, but I can also recommend OpenMW for Deck.
Cataclysm: Dark Days Ahead
Hotkey the apocalypse game would be interesting on a steam deck. I wonder if anyone has attempted to map keys to the steam deck.
I was hugely impressed by how well Caves of Qud handles controller support. Definitely worth a look if you're interested in how these types of games can maintain access to do many different functions.
Heh. CDDA is pretty intense, but I'm a huge fan of how it handles inventory.
The inventory system is great, I tend to find myself going too deep into organizing my stuff, it's an enjoyable system.
Yeah... There are a lot of things I really like about the game, but every time I've tried playing, I get outside the initial starting point (after filling my pockets with frozen meat and shit lol), it gets kind of meh imo... I do like how you can use a smart phone (or flip phone) and it can even act as a flashlight
I have heard good things about some of the mods/variations
Add anything with sonic in the name. Like SRB2:Persona.
