PayPalSuper Hexagon, a true indie gem classic from Terry Cavanagh has a big update out now and it has also become Steam Deck Verified with it. Previously available in Beta, it's now in the Stable branch for all players.
While the gameplay is the same, a lot of the tech behind the game was rewritten to perform better, along with much improved gamepad / controller support. This is only the start too, with a Part 2 coming at some point that has also been teased. Developer Ethan Lee wrote some comments about the work involved on Twitter, and you can see the Neo update page for the full details.

This should keep the game running smoothly on all platforms for a long time to come.
You can buy it in many places like Humble Store, Steam, itch.io and GOG.
If you want to see how it runs on a Steam Deck, check it out below:

I imagine this would be really fun to play on Steam Deck.

I reinstalled it -- to find that I'm horribly rusty, as I can't survive beyond 12 seconds on Hard (the easiest difficulty is called 'Hard', btw). My record is 87 seconds on Hard, & 20-something on Harder.
I imagine this would be really fun to play on Steam Deck.
I've had some fun with this game, I used it as meditation practice lol. My scores are similar,
Hard: 90:23
Harder: 47:41
Hardest: 13:50
I haven't played in awhile either. 26:58 on Hard, not too bad for a first go haha, I remember some of the patterns. This game is ridiculous and I recommend everyone play it. I can never get any of my friends to play lol
At the moment, the non-steam shops offer only older versions for download.

Y'all are better than me. My hand gets tired pretty quickly.
EDIT: I just set a personal best of 67:00 in Hexagon, and a pathetic 5:42 in Hardester.
