I explained the issue to them, it actually *should* be solved for the demo now.

Quoting: RomlokNote that the native Linux demo is currently broken, in that the wrong Steam depot is connected so that we get the Windows files instead. Classic "missing executable"! 🤦
Should be fixed now, was wrongly tagged as Steam Deck only.

Cleaned up a few comments. Please keep on topic to the game.

There’s a bug with double inputs on external gamepads, will be fixed in next Preview: https://github.com/ValveSoftware/SteamOS/issues/1500#issuecomment-2103926599

Killer for me so I’m rolling back for now.

Quoting: WYWI first found out about this game when reading about the history of Bungie and the Apple Pippin video game console.

I wonder if Luxtorpeda will eventually add support for the native open source engine.
I poked the developer, they're looking into it.

Quoting: SalvatosI’m glad there’s a demo because this looks like it might be a bit too technical for me but I’m still quite intrigued and willing to try it out.
The good thing about this is you can take your time. It's turn-based along the timeline and the tutorial sets it up for you quite nicely.

Quoting: creeddaSo if I am reading this right, I should be able to plop on my couch, turn on my controller, and my steam deck should wake up from sleep, turn my tv on, set it to the right input and i can put in my pin and game.
As far as I know, this is still specific to the OLED. Before this update, headphones would even turn it on lol. So they're tweaking it to make sure they don't.

With a Nintendo Switch 2 on the way, I hope Valve make a Steam Deck 2

Quoting: grigiWhat do you think is a good cadence for updates? 3 years? 4 years? more?
The 8 year cadence of the switch is too long as it has definitely been losing developer interest in the last two years as it's too weak to support on multiplatform releases anymore.
It's far too long, the Switch was low-powered even at release and it has missed a fair amount of games as it's just not strong enough.

For the Deck 2, my suggestion there about announcing it late 2026, would mean a release in 2027. Making it about 5 years between Deck and Deck 2 which for a PC platform seems pretty darn reasonable to me, considering the Deck struggles a lot with newer games right now.

Apex Legends Upheaval update live with EOS Anti-Cheat breaking it on Steam Deck / Linux (updated)

Quoting: SlyvanThe linux .so library is missing again... i hope this will be checked more often. I hate the fact that no one tests for linux/the steamdeck. This happens so frequently that i almost think it's on purpose...

Epic & EA are involved... it very likely is on purpose.
As I already commented, that is not used in EOS EAC and the issue has been solved by Valve.
