Hey everyone! So, with the release of our guide about Junk Store, we got a lot of people asking about playing Kingdom Hearts on the Steam Deck. So, we took some time and created two guides to go over how to get the games working on the Deck!
The guides are separated based on two different methods that are used to get all the games running. One method works with 1.5+2.5 and Dream Drop Distance, while the second method fixes Kingdom Hearts 3, Melody of Memory, and 0.2 Fragmentary Passage.

Similar to this? No, but you can use Heroic Launcher!
Did you know that you can put access your Epic Games library on your Steam Deck in a similar way to your regular library? Here is how you can do it!

As the title says! The Junk Store Decky Plugin has officially launched into 1.0, and it allows you to access your Epic Games library directly in Steam Deck's game mode in a nice and clean way, similar to the regular Steam library.
This guide shows you how to do it and fix the Epic Login issue.
Manor Lords is possibly the most interesting Colony Sim in recent memory, and flexible settings allow it to be playable on the Steam Deck.

Pretty amazing to hear how good the game is on the Steam Deck and in general. There's a reason this is the most wishlisted game, and it sounds like it is hitting the marks!
Expect solid 30 FPS gameplay with decent visuals and large battery drain. This will most likely get better as the game is optimized throughout early access.
Thank you! I am glad you think so too :D
HELL YES!!!
Same here! SteamDeckHQ started with that 512GB LCD, and I still have it! 100% worth the upgrade, I love the OLED screen so much.
Why are you regretting the purchase now? If you have any questions about the Deck and what it can do, I would be happy to answer!
As much as we prefer going to the article, for obvious reasons, we also respect that some people don't want to and just want the information. For something like this, which isn't an opinionated/unique article, I see no reason to not just state the information in the body of the post.

Right?? I mean, we had the mod, but it was still a process.
I would say so. Now it just needs to get released...hopefully soon.
You won't regret it!
Thank you! It's something I would like to do more. The biggest reason why we haven't is due to all of this being managed by one person (Noah/Me) and spreading myself thin. I still am a bit, but I am going to try (and maybe find some mods for our Lemmy community too).
We got into the Hades 2 Technical Test and got to try it out on the Steam Deck OLED and LCD models! And we are extremely impressed so far.

We got the chance to test the Hades 2 Technical Test, so we went ahead to see how it runs on both the Steam Deck OLED and LCD models. And it runs extremely well on both!

We got the chance to check out Hades 2 on the Steam Deck, so we tested it on both OLED and LCD models to see how good performance is. And it is VERY good!
That's fantastic! This is a huge update, so it is great seeing it finally on its way out.

I'm hoping not. I am hopeful the price hike was specifically because of the Nintendo name, which wouldn't be the case here.
