On Steamdeck and Linux compatibility and support

Good day everyone, Aaron here.


As I prepare to start playtesting using steam (instead of Game Jolt as it has been until now- thank you for your service GJ!), I need to further tackle the checklists for steam and make sure the one I had already taken care of are correct. Among them, and in particular mixed with some previous attempts, there is the topic related to Linux and Steam OS.
Despite my good intentions, I am working on the game alone, and there's already a lot of obstacles I am facing in Unreal Engine thanks to my lack of programming and computer literacy. I am just a simple idiot trying to make a game. I had attempted to install some Linux components on my Windows machine to allow me to package the game as a pure Linux build, but I have failed,

and thus I will not be officially supporting Linux nor Steamdeck.



Official is a key word, because I will still do my best with my time and ability constraints to deliver a product that is still compatible and well performant with Steamdeck and Linux, mostly thanks to the mega heavy lifting that Proton, Valve and the Linux community has done and is doing everyday. As a steamdeck owner myself I want it to run on it well. And it does, the controls works, the resolution is there, all the text is big enough to be read. It is serviceable. I hope, after the game's launch, I can revisit the choice of support with more time, skill, or even help.

Thank you all, and I wish you a nice day.

-Explore a Timeless World of Wisdom-
Step into an afterlife teeming with historical and mythological figures: philosophers, legendary heroes, poets, and thinkers. Yet, no one remain? All that remains are the books they wrote, the notes they left behind, and some prisms—Echoes, replaying past conversations, that may hold the key to understand. Understand what?



-Experiment with the Ominous Boards-

A technology of this world — the Boards, are used for everything, from the most mundane task like opening or closing a door, to the more complicated ones like defining the laws of physic. Most of them contain puzzles and riddles created specifically for you. Why?



-Experience at your own pace- The main content to finish the game and experience the story is friendly to even the most novice players. If you have more experience and are looking for a challenge, there's plenty of optional content and secrets to discover. If you are agile enough you may be able to jump over some boards.


-Knowledge-based, non-linear, something-something-
The game allow non-linear progression depending on the knowledge you obtain and how much you decide to explore. External knowledge can help you, and I invite anyone to research anything they see and don't understand, but it is not needed and the game will always give all the tools and knowledge needed to understand and solve the puzzles, and you are never required to brute-force puzzles. At least, until you are.
