Dropped TDP down to about 8 and capped frames to 30, for consistency before that frames were moving between 20-60 depending on what was on screen. Long black screen loads into and out of levels no matter what settings.
Game lags frequently especially loading into and out of levels. Expect lag spikes when loading new scenes.
This gameplay is primarily tapping A for spacebar on the steam deck. Everything runs great.
Official controls have inverted menu navigation, but gameplay is just left and right, which work normally. Everything works.
Played a lot in the beta, even more after 1.0. Switching between the deck docked to TV or undocked and the PC has been working great
I use a layout with mode shifting. Works well, if you get used to it. Gameplay is best with my BT keyboard/mouse.
Plays well on low settings at 5w TDP. Switched render to far and upped it to 9wTDP. In some ways steam deck plays smoother than my PC.
The text is small, recommend docking it for TV play
Take the time to find a good community layout if you aren't using a mouse/keyboard. Much better with a keyboard and mouse. And adjust the settings and TDP to your preference. 40-50 fps is plenty for me
