Do be kind.

Avoid spoilers at all cost since the games are really about solving puzzles for yourself.

Little concerned about the comments regarding Linux support. I played the demo on my Steam Deck and had to force a different version of Proton to get it to run and then some of the graphics definitely seemed a little janky. I could play it on my Windows desktop, but I've been addicted to playing my games while laying in bed on my Deck. :-)

Hmmm. YMMV -- but I play games to have fun, not to push my graphics hardware to the limit. I'll just be happy to solve puzzles, not worry about whether I am in Super duper ultra mode and getting every last pixel as high res as possible.

But yeah, hopefully the community can find the sweet spot for the Steam Deck via ProtonDB: https://www.protondb.com/app/835960?device=any

I only see 1 entry there right now.

Oh I completely agree! I am much more concerned about the story and fun in the game - I am more than willing to deal with graphics issues, I’ve never been someone who cared about getting 60 FPS at 1080 on ultra settings. I mentioned it as it didn’t bode well for being optimized for Linux/Steam Deck, at least to me.
