Controls have to be changed to mouse on trackpad, plus left click (on right trackpad) or no inputs are read from the entire deck handheld.
Left Click on Right Trackpad Click
30fps is all that's really warranted, defaults to 1280x720, but allows you to set 1280x800 in options.
Without a complete overhaul of your control set the game appears unusable if defaults are used on steam deck.
Super cute platformer that is reminiscent of Donkey Kong Country and a great Steam Deck addition
I could only get it running using Proton Experimental, seems to be fine now.
Some small text but it's managable for the most part.
Intro videos and sometimes videos in general are broken unless you use Proton 5.9-GE-3-ST on the Steam Deck. This solves the problem of most reports, and oddly enough a while ago someone posted the same suggestion for regular linux use, but it was skipped over as proton passed v5.9.
Disabled touch screen and pads to avoid accidental activation.
Steam Peformance Menu -Frame Rate Limit off, Refresh Rate 60, Scaling Filter FSR, FSR Sharpness 0. In game options -Graphics Menu - Fullscreen 1152x720, Medium everything except Ultra Textures, VSYNC ON, MAX FPS 30, Blur off (Preference) -Game- Headbobbing NO (avoid motion sickness lol) Gives 3-4hrs playtime.
Text can be a bit small but it's manageable
Graphics menu is a bit janky, you have to push the joystick up and down sometimes to get proper setting otherwise it's fine in game control wise.
You can likely push 40fps as there's some headroom with my settings, however battery life will suffer and fps drops into the 30s will happen at points.
For the steam deck, before installation force it to use Proton Experimental, the proton version is much better performing than the Native.
Game runs without issues providing you use the Proton Experimental install and not the native linux version. You get around 4hrs using 60fps default settings.
