        It is. I’ve been away from it for a few years, and these new Geometry Nodes and hair systems are pretty incredible. So long particle system. It’s really come a long way since about 2.9 when I last played with it.

        And the deck handles it pretty solidly, but it’d be nice if GPU rendering were supported.

    It’s been mostly Isaac as usual but I picked up Shotgun King: The Final Checkmate yesterday and I like it a lot. It’s a fast-playing roguelite with a neat idea that’s implemented well. The game mechanics remind me of Hoplite on mobile.

    The game is currently on sale and has a free demo. It has good controller input and low resource use, a great fit for the Deck.

    Alan Wake’s American Nightmare. Just finished the story mode. It’s Steam Deck Verified, so it runs and plays well, and it’s easy to play with a controller because it has a bit of auto-aim/aim correction.

    I did enjoy it. Not a must play by any means, but it does add to the lore of the Alan Wake series. If you are a fan of that game series, I recommend playing this. And if you aren’t, you probably should play the other games in the series. 😉

    Currently I’m playing through Ready Or Not, the engine update and them adding FSR3.0 made the game playable at the best of times! However the Deck still freezes and crashes occasionally sadly.

      The GoW memory leak shouldn’t be an issue once SteamOS 3.6 hits stable, it uses ZRAM which will keep the game from crashing the Deck.

        Thanks for the info. Thats good to know. Its a pain having to have short plays while keeping an eye on the ram creeping up.
