The Steam Deck is an awesome portable machine, and I want my fellow Steam Deck users to feel right at home when playing Superstar Strategy. I've been taking care to ensure that your user experience on the Steam Deck with Superstar Strategy is totally seamless, as if it were a portable-native game (which, in a sense, it is)! The following details explain how Superstar Strategy meets Valve's recommended Steam Deck guidelines:
Input
Controller Support
The game can be launched from the Steam Deck and be fully controlled with the Decks controller. If additional controllers or a keyboard/mouse are plugged in, they will also be compatible for multiplayer and/or docked scenarios.
Controller Glyphs
All glyphs match the current input device being used without the need for configuration, including custom glyphs for the Steam Deck controller itself.
Text Input
There is no text input required for the game.
Display
Resolution Support
The game has a dynamic resolution in 16:9 aspect ratio.
Default Configuration
The default graphical settings are compatible with the Steam Deck at a playable frame rate (60fps).
Text Legibility
Valve recommends the smallest font rendered on screen to be a size of 9 pixels absolute minimum, with a recommended minimum of 12 pixels. The smallest font in the game at 720p renders at a height of 12px.
Seamlessness
No device Compatibility Warnings
Not applicable. Steam Deck builds are created on Steam Deck hardware and tested for compatibility on SteamOS.
Launchers
Not applicable. No custom launcher, no problem!
Proton Support
Not applicable. Native Linux builds are made for, tested and compiled on the Steam Deck itself, so Proton's Windows compatibility isn't necessary!

I hope you have a great experience playing Superstar Strategy on your Steam Deck. Since the game is heavily inspired by handheld SRPGs of the past, I want to honour that lineage by letting players have the same freedom of motion to scratch that tactical itch, wherever they go. Have fun saving the realm!
