ULTRAKILL might be one of the absolute most popular Early Access games from 2020 and it might just be a good pick for the Steam Deck, if you love fast-paced retro-styled shooters.
In the "Saw Your Heart Update" released February 16, the team mentioned they've added in full controller support to the game. This includes for all menus, tutorials and on-screen text show controller inputs, aim / look speed is no longer affected by framerate and a few other fixes to make controllers feel good. They said they're hoping for Deck Verification soon.
A very short but to the point teaser video was also included:

Or it can help with Vulkan adoption. Many games may think twice before committing to DX12 if there is a big enough market that will get performance benefits from that decision.
