It was optimised for desktop so it is a bit harder to see but nor bad.

Text is small but readable as long as you are not visualy impired to much.
There is some audio tearing once in a while
Run it in Borderless for better performance
After Major Tinkering there is still frame stutters when loading in intense areas late game or caves.
-Use Proton GE (I used 9.0-1)
-Install cryoutilities (this game needs lots of vram so the stock steamdeck swap config is not good enough): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X7_vO_ttY5E&t=209s https://pimylifeup.com/steam-deck-cryoutilities/
-Limit the Refresh rate of the steam deck to 30 or 40 https://gamerant.com/steam-deck-set-up-40-fps and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ul5Eql8LJu8
-Run the game and go into settings Select "Low" in the bottom right (Set Resolution scale to 75, Display mode to borderless)
-In Performance settings Overclock GPU to 1600MHz
Occasional issues but I played for hours without issue.
I loved it on the system.
