The Game runs fine.

Playing on the Steam Deck is a pretty awful experience, since the control scheme tries to optimize around the lack of controller support, but it does not substitute for it pretty well.

Input:Other

There's no controller support, and the "official" steam controller profile is very janky. The thumbsticks are mapped to constantly click in front of your character to move them, but this means that you're constantly clicking on everything near your character, including menus.

Appears to run fine, but the control issues made me give up pretty quickly.

Significant Bugs:Yes

It was crashing before it reached the menu, and the next time it asked me whether I wanted to use local saves or remote saves from the steam cloud.
With the dialog still present, before clicking anything. I deleted everything in:

~/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/compatdata/41500/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/AppData/Roaming/runic games/torchlight/
You might want to backup the save files you want to keep intact, but after doing that I clicked the option to use local saves and the game recreated all the files. It now works perfectly!
