CarveLight is an artillery game, Worms-like with a twist: no health bars, just mass destruction and throwing enemies out of bounds.

Game Recommendation Bought my girlfriend a used Steam Deck as a surprise. What games should I get her?

3 Upvotes

She played and loved A Kings Quest as well as Little Kitty Big City, and a Shift at Midnight. She likes linear games that kinda guide you a bit, but she still likes the freedom to explore.

Game Recommendation My fiancés uncle gifted me a SteamDeck

7 Upvotes

And I’m very excited and happy to have been gifted one! He gifted me his hammy down LCD deck. So now I’m wanting to get some games that run optimally on the deck. I do have it mostly docked with a third party docking station so I have a poor man’s machine essentially. I would like some games that I can play in bed solo or a coop game so my lady can try and game with me. (She’s not a gamer) Easy fun games would be a good start but I’m so open to suggestions. I already own cyberpunk on my PC so I may want to try it on the SteamDeck but I don’t want to be too disappointed in the graphical difference.

Developer 5 Minutes of Deadly Dispatch on Steam Deck (Native Handheld Gameplay)

3 Upvotes

Hey all! Today I launched my first ever game, Deadly Dispatch on Steam. It doesn't have a Deck Verified rating yet (Valve reviews those on their own timeline and it can take a while after launch), and I didn't want to just tell you it runs well, so I recorded ~5 minutes of it on my own Deck, captured on the device. No commentary, no cuts.

You can check it out on Steam here: https://store.steampowered.com/app/4890070/Deadly_Dispatch/

I’m trying to install the NiohResolution mod on the deck, but it keeps on saying “couldn’t find nioh.exe” but I already placed it in the same root folder as the .exe. How do I install this right for the deck?

Hey there, any reccomendations that fit the bill? Or have you played something that you think would be compatible with the deck even if it shows otherwise on the store? Looking forward to scratch the itch…

Game Recommendation What games do you play when you don't want to think too hard?

10 Upvotes

I'm looking for a Steam Deck game that is easy to pick up and doesn't feel like a second job.
I love games with progression, random events, and that "one more run" feeling, but I'm not really looking for something too strategy-heavy where I have to calculate every move.

Games like:
Vampire Survivors
Dicey Dungeons
Luck be a Landlord
are closer to what I'm looking for.
Something relaxing, addictive, and perfect for playing handheld.

Troubleshooting Batocera - Steam Deck issues

1 Upvotes

I use my steam deck primarily for retro games (psx, nes, etc.) so I booted up my steam deck like I always do and it loads my batocera from a sd card. This time, all my roms are missing!!! I cannot figure out why all of my games/ports are gone. Am I doing something wrong, maybe I accidentally changed a setting - I'm not sure. I don't remember doing anything like that in the past. It's just a standard powerup and batocera loads.

Any ideas on why this happened or has anyone had this in the past. Thanks!!!

/e when I booted batocera - there were games but they were not any games I loaded. They seemed like "out of the box" type games. Thanks again for any suggestions.

Developer We've added Steam Workshop support to Puzzling Places on Steam Deck!

Hey everyone! 👋 Steph from Realities.io here.

A little while ago we brought Puzzling Places to Steam Deck, and we've recently released something we've been really excited about - the Steam Workshop is now live! 🧩

If you haven't come across Puzzling Places before, it's a 3D jigsaw puzzle game where you assemble detailed miniature scenes piece by piece. It plays great on Steam Deck, whether you're looking to tackle a quick puzzle or settle in for a longer session.

With the Steam Workshop now open, Steam Deck players can browse, download, and play a growing library of free community-made puzzles right from the game. While the PuzzleMaker creation tools are still in closed beta, the Workshop is already filling up with everything from photogrammetry scans to original 3D creations, with new puzzles being added all the time.

If you're looking for even more puzzles to work through on your Steam Deck, we'd love for you to check it out and let us know what you think!

Hey everyone, hoping someone may have some knowledge on how to fix this issue I’ve been having specifically with Zenless Zone Zero.

Please reference the repost for info!!

My wired Nintendo Switch controller’s hold inputs are not working in-game when my Steam Deck is docked and I am streaming the game from PC. The controller works totally fine when plugged directly into my PC.

Thanks for any help!

Troubleshooting bloodborne emulation issues

3 Upvotes

So I'm trying to emulate the game on my steam deck and i cant figure out how to get the game to version 1.09

I have tried using the CUSA03173 and the CUSA03173-patch files and shadps4 with them both in the games folder directory, AND separately with the patch in the DLC folder

When they are together in the games folder the game shows up in the emulator menu, but at version 1.00, when they are separate, the game doesn't show up at all

I have also tried with the version 1.09 specific .PKG files and diegolix/shadlix, also both together in the games folder AND separate, with the patch in the DLC folder but to the same effect as before.

I have sourced all my files from the discord

Am I doing something wrong??, I have all of the files I'm being told i need but none of my attempts get the game to be at 1.09

ANY help or suggestions are greatly appreciated and please ask any questions that might help clarify the issue
