Hello Trip Tenders,Just one last update for you before the big launch into 1.0 tomorrow. We have been testing out Tempest Tower on our office Steam Deck and it is such a smooth experience. We are making this news post so you know what to expect while we are waiting for official Steam Deck Verification from Valve. Tempest Tower on DeckThe documentation for Steam Deck compatibility lists 3 key areas: input, display, and seamlessness. I will go through each of these quickly to give you a good idea of what to expect. Input Tempest Tower contains native controller support and correctly shows appropriate controller glyphs when using the Steam Deck. Display Temepst Tower supports 16:10 aspect ratio and renders at 1280x800 on Steam Deck (native resolution). The game runs at a consistent 60fps. UI text is clearly readable, with the on-screen fonts never falling below 12 pixels in height (Valves reccomended smallest font size). The game does not offer UI scaling options.Seamlessness There are no issues with running the Windows version of the game through Proton, and no device compatibility warnings while running the game.Video Evidence?! If you don't want to just take our word for it. C
