Been hooked on Starcom: Unknown Space since I fired it up on the Steam Deck. It runs surprisingly well for a game that’s so open-ended and packed with real-time action. Controls feel natural once you remap a couple things, and performance holds steady even during big fleet battles. What I love most is the sense of discovery—there’s always something new popping up, and the pacing makes it easy to lose hours without noticing. Definitely scratches that “build your ship, explore the stars, solve weird mysteries” itch. Feels awesome to play on the couch or during downtime. Total hidden gem.
Honestly didn’t expect it to feel this smooth on the Steam Deck. Combat’s super responsive—whipping demons around as Fury is just plain fun. Took a few tweaks (mainly lowering shadows and capping FPS), but once dialed in, it runs great. The world has that gritty, apocalyptic charm, and the boss fights are legit challenging without being unfair. Not the prettiest game out there, but it fits the mood perfectly. If you’re into old-school action games and don’t mind some rough edges, it’s totally worth playing handheld.
Everspace shines on the Steam Deck—fluid controls, stunning visuals, and addictive roguelike progression make every space dogfight thrilling. Whether docked or on the go, its interstellar chaos feels tailor-made for the Deck’s layout and screen. Runs smoothly with only minor tweaks, and the tactile feedback brings ship combat to life. A must-play for sci-fi action fans who crave challenge and beauty in equal measure.
One of the OGs and still fun to this day with tons and tons of replayability. Multiplayer is a lot of fun too!
