Absolutely picking this up, assuming it has Linux support.

Might be worth playing again to see if they ever fixed the lighthouse map crash bug. I stopped playing after encountering that.

Quoting: Liam DaweThis is what Deck Verified is for. It already exists, and is entirely separate to desktop system requirements.

No, 'Deck Verified' just means Valve's review team tested it "at some point" and decided it passed their checks: https://youtu.be/_OAqvtlgfGA?t=50

It doesn't mean the developer supports you running it on Deck, or that future (or even present) versions will run on Deck.

If a developer "supports" running their game on Steam Deck, you'd hope they test new versions to ensure compatibility before pushing them out, or at the very least they will treat issues reported to them by Steam Deck users the same way as they would for any issues reported on platforms the support (i.e. not just close them as "unsupported, won't fix").

Former dev on Stardew Valley reveals their life-sim Sunkissed City

Quoting: Liam DaweWhile the art style may be similar, side-by-side there's lots of very clear differences it's not a copy of the assets in Stardew as far as I can see. And to be fair, there were a great many that used the Stardew art-style before Stardew. This type of pixel-art has been around for a very long time.

Yeah, my knee-jerk reaction was wrong here, after comparing screenshots of both side-by-side it's clear this is different.

Oh wow, I hope they got permission form ConcernedApe to use the SV art assets first.

Who makes up these percentages? People checking statcounter.com to see who's checking statcounter.com?

I didn't vote in most of the categories as there was no Linux option as a candidate, so I'm equally as uninterested in the results.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Steam Deck Verified picks for the 2023 holiday season

I've been craving a replay of Azure Dreams (PSX) so I've installed DuckStation on my Deck. Hard to believe this gem is over 25 years old, and (AFAIK) nobody has remade it properly (Pokemon Mystery Dungeon came close, if I recall).

Might replay the GBA version afterwards, depending on whether the itch has been scratched or not. It was never that well received among my peers at the time, but I enjoyed it.
