Wow, VCS is still alive? That is pretty cool I guess. I am also interested to see where Atari goes from here!

More recently though they put out word that they've taken over multiple titles from Ronimo Games including Awesomenauts and Swords & Soldiers. Both slightly odd purchases, since neither seem to actually have an active player-base any more (at least going by Steam numbers) but they must have a plan for their future.
These brands do have a strong potential but unleashing it requires funding 🥲

What app are you mainly using on Steam Deck / Desktop Linux to manage games from other sources?
Heroic + Steam + SteamGridDB!

Heroic does such as good job of managing even third-party games (with the automatic download of the cover art etc.), then I add those as non-Steam games directly from Heroic. And if any art is missing, I can easily add it with SteamGridDB SGDBoop app!

You may be able to get it to work on desktop Linux too in offline mode by using SteamDeck=1 %command% as a Steam launch option for the game, which likely won't work for Windows since the Steam Deck is just a Linux machine.
LMAO 😂

Bundled FluidSynth library for DirectMusic.
This should be nice for older games using MIDI music ☺️
