With the release of Book of Hours just around the corner, I dug out Cultist Simulator again. It runs well enough on the Steam Deck, but it needs mouse input (-> touchpads), and sometimes it flickers (this seems to be related to autosaves).
Overall it works well enough on the Deck so that it's fun to play. The flickering is annoying though.
darkest dungeon, mechanicus, the dishonnered series, witcher, ff7 crisis remaster, smash bros, random pokemon hacks, deus ex hr
I did limbo, guacemelee, inside. I started a cyberpunk game too, but switched to platform then.
Working my way through the first few Resident Evil games. Currently playing the second remake one.
I got mine recently and have been playing a little bit of a lot of different stuff, but the thing I've put the most hours into has been Midnight Suns. I did not expect a Marvel game to my new favorite turn-based tactics deckbuilder, lol.
The stupid open world collectible part blows chunks, but the actual core gameplay is shockingly fun, if not perfectly tuned the way some deckbuilders are. The extremely weird lightweight high school dating sim / bioware relationship management aspect is very odd but produces some extremely funny interactions at times.
Horizon Zero Dawn, Super Hexagon and Hollow Knight. I tend to play Hollow Knight more often because Horizon Zero Dawn really drains the battery.
I just played Spider-Man Remastered. Had a blast. Thought I might get motion sick swinging around, but it wasn't an issue at all.
A smaller screen probably helps reduce the chance of motion sickness.
Finished The Last of Us Part 1 today. Now working on my Animal Crossing island 🏝️
I’ve been playing a handful of games:
Demon’s Tilt: an excellent pinball game that runs great on the Deck. Also, the pixel art is very nice.
Hades: a great roguelike, finishing the last few side quests now.
Void Scrappers: a fun little survivors-like. Cheap and addictive.
Cassette Beasts: similar to Pokémon, if Pokémon had actually innovated in the last few years. Awesome mechanics, and all the battles are doubles matches.
Demon's Tilt has been on my radar for awhile now. I've really enjoyed non-traditional pinball games like Metroid Prime Pinball and Yoku's Island Express, Demon's Tilt looks closer to a traditional table than those two but still seems like it goes beyond what a physical table could do.
Edit: just got notified by steam that the sequel to Demon's Tilt just released: XenoTilt
Days Gone. Looks good, runs well, fun game. Almost at 60 hours so far but end is in sight. Got a few in mind after I finish but not quite decided yet.
Cities Skylines cause I'm hyped for C:S2. Also started and finished Layers of Fear 2, great game!
Skul The Hero Slayer Horizon Turbo Chase
The Last Epoch, Pacer and Legend Bowl.
Just finished Monster Sanctuary. Moving onto Super Robot Wars 30
None. I got it so my partner could play video games on the couch with me while I'm smackin moblins in Hyrule.
