The game must be set to fullscreen in the settings every time the game is started.
You may need to manually go into the game's settings and set the controls for the first time.
set fullscreen to off, set pixel perfect to true. in performance settings set scaling filter to pixel.
Set FPS to 60 instead of 90. In the game, set settings to medium.
don't forget to set FPS to 60 instead of 90
set GPU to 600Hz and TDP limit to 8 in order to avoid wasting battery on power you don't need.
changed the left trackpad to be a single button that displays the map
The game is stuttery on the default performance settings. Changing the framerate from 90 to 60 instead will make the game buttery smooth.
you could consider setting GPU to 200 as well for ultra low power usage.
mapped d pad to joystick
Set FPS to 60, this also improves the game's performance as well
For ultra low battery usage, consider setting GPU to 200 (lowest)
Yes it works, but setting FPS to 40 is mandatory because otherwise the battery will drain like crazy.
Set FPS to 40 in the performance settings. This is mandatory.
This isn't playable on the steam deck. The performance can become extremely bad.
use the "better alruna controls" layout.
Set FPS limit to 60Hz
stutter. Can be resolved by setting FPS limit to 60Hz
This was previously completely unplayable. it has been ported to a new engine and wor perfectly now.
The game runs at 60Hz so the steam deck refresh rate should be adjusted down to this value as well.
You will need to disable steam recorder, otherwise the game won't save.
Out of bounds areas to the top and bottom are drawn due to the steam resolution not being supported. You need to go to the game's page, press the cog, go to properties, go to general, change resolution to 1280*720 and activate the "set resolution for internal and external display"in order to fix this.
By default the controls don't work. Switching to the input "fallen Prince for steam deck, corrected" is mandatory for playing this game. Touch right joystick is the input for interact. Also, all menu screens must be navigated by using the touch screen.
Unity stutter
The game suffers from unity stutter but the steam deck helps hide it.
I made a community layout that makes this play much better on the steam deck.
for ultra low battery usage, set FPS to 60, TDP to 5 Watts, and GPU to 200MHz (the lowest possible)
For improved battery, set GPU to 200 (minimum) and TDP limit to 6
Map d pad to joystick
The resolution height isn't properly supported, as such, out of bound areas of the game will show up at the bottom of the display, this can range from nodraw to white areas to unoptimised textures, and so on. This can really hurt the game's immersion.
Out of bounds areas are drawn due to the steam deck resolution not being supported. You need to go to the game's page, press the cog wheel, go to general, set game resolution to 1280*720 and activate "set resolution for internal and external display" in order to fix this.
the side scrolling is rather stuttery, to fix this set FPS to 60. This also improves battery life.
For ultra low battery usage, consider seting GPU to 200 (lowest)
The game is too resource hungry, GPU is running at max and the game is still slow. The alternative to this makes the graphics terrible
The performance is really poor unless you manually set FPS to 62. This has the added effect of significantly improving battery life as well.
Set FPS to 60, this also improves game performance. Set GPU to 200
It doesn't work without forcing the game to be run with proton.
It works perfectly after changing proton to use forced experimental instead of native Linux
Doesn't run without setting proton to experimental.
Set TDP limit to 8 Watts, set framerate to 60 fps
Works OK, especially if you've run the game once on PC first before running it on the steam deck.
The settings page opens up an unusuable launch window. Do not attempt to change setup.
set FPS to 60 to make the performance significantly better
To fix the graphics, set the game to windowed in the game's settings. Then go into steam performance settings and set scaling mode to FIT and scaling filter to PIXEL
the game does not support the steam deck resolution, you're going to have to go into the settings and pick the least bad one of your choice
You're going to need to do a lot of changes to the game's settings before you play. The settings are located in the bottom right of the screen (its in japanese) there you can select engling and begin making changes to the controls and the resolution as you see fit. Keep in mind that since the game is japanese the B button is used as the confirm button.
The game immediately crashes when you try to start it, no versions of proton seem to work.
Set FPS to 60
Use the "Thread layout that actually works" community layout
The game automatically tries to set a non working mouse & keyboard when you start the game for the first time. To fix this issue I made and shared a community layout that will make the game playable. It has the admittedly bad name of "Thread layout that actually works".
You're going to want to make a lot of changes, the default binds dont work well with the steam deck control design and you cant change the bindings in the game itself.
For ultra low battery usage, set GPU to 200 (lowest).
Works perfectly after starting the game with proton experimental instead of native linux
Saves dont work with the native linux version as it is not properly configured. Switch to using proton experimental instead.
Go into the game's settings, then into graphics/sound and set both fullscreen and integer scaling to ON. This will greatly improve the graphics.
