Creavures plays great on the Steam Deck but you have to navigate the menues using the touch screen.
Display settings must be selected at every launch. Select: "1280x800" & "Fantastic"
Touch screen must be used to navigate menues
Right Trackpad as Mouse
- Use Lutris to install Windows Steam.
- Use Windows Steam to install Lume.
- Add Lume installed from Windows Steam as a game in Lutris.
- Use Lutris to Create Steam Shortcut.
Press the "start" button (the one with three horisontal lines next to the Y button) to enter fullscreen
Even though this game has a native Linux version, it does not launch right out of the box.
Forcing compatibility with any Proton version will make the game launch and run almost perfectly,. The only issue will be that the save game functionality does not work.
So unless you plann to finish the game in one sitting (which is totally doable) you need to follow my tinker steps listed above.
Like many others I had a green or black screen on launch the followed by broken graphics, the first many times I tried to launch the game. After trying every Proton version available, I reset everything to default settings and launched the game again, this time the Steam Deck installed DirectX by itself on launch and the game has been running almost perfectly since.
The only issue I have notices is some slowness here and there, even though the CPU ang GPU barely use 10%.
