In the new Back with a Vengeance: The Best of Boomer Shooters Humble Bundle, you can grab some hot action for cheaps and they all work well on Linux Desktop and Steam Deck.
As usual I will give you easy to read compatibility for Steam Deck and Desktop Linux via Deck Verified, ProtonDB and Native Linux listings. Each is also a Steam link to grab more info if you need before purchasing.
Here's what's in the bundle:

ULTRAKILL is a fast-paced ultraviolent retro FPS combining the skill-based style scoring from character action games with unadulterated carnage inspired by the best shooters of the '90s. Rip apart your foes with varied destructive weapons and shower in their blood to regain your health.
Turbo Overkill - Deck Verified / ProtonDB Gold
Turbo Overkill is complete and with many new updates (just in: spectacular ending credits). Clean up Paradise with your chainsaw leg, 15+ weapons & hovercar, and battle Syn (a super AI), bounty hunters, and cyberpunks aplenty. Apogee's most outrageous FPS since Duke Nukem 3D. Good hunting, Sir!

On that note, DUSK made me want to replay Quake and I've gotta be honest, really not as good as I remember. The visuals are very one note, and while the soundtrack is great when it really gets going and compliments the tone nicely, it's very subdued. More importantly, man are some of the enemy types annoying in that game. Even though most are melee or projectile, they might as well be hitscan given how much I get hit by them. Shambler's in particular are just not fun to fight.
