Developer Looking for Steam Deck compatibility feedback for our game’s demo.

Hello,

I'm one of the developers of a colorful 2.5D platformer on Steam with a free demo available.

I’d like to ask for some Steam Deck-specific feedback, since we don’t own one ourselves and we would love to know how well it works.

We’d especially like to know:
• Are there any noticeable performance issues, stability issues, graphical/audio glitches?
• Do the controls work as expected?
• Anything else that seems off?

If anyone is interested in helping out, let me know and I'll share the Steam page.

Thanks!

Edit:
Thanks to some great feedback, I was able to fix a few issues and make an update.
After seeing a few comments suggesting that I add a link directly in the post, I’m adding it here in case anyone else would like to take a look:

If you find any other issues, it would be great to hear about them.

I tested the demo. Are the speech bubbles supposed to be a hazy static? It's hard to see some of the control cues I'm given in those static looking speech bubbles. The speech text bubbles that are at the bottom of the screen are perfect looking. When Corad is talking and it shows the runes on the Ancient Artifact were also glowing but with static. Also the smokey like haze when the buildings appear on the overworld also had that static look to it. I will post a picture below this post showing it. I blanked on how to do a screen shot on device so I took a pic with my phone.

The game is pretty cool. Very Super Mario 3D Land/World inspired. I can hear the inspiration in some of the audio cues as well. None of the issues I've come across affect the game play.

Your welcome. I love checking out new games. Let me know when it's updated with fixes and I'll run through it again.

Really appreciate it! I’ve made an update now which I hope fixes it, but ain't sure...

I think it should be enough to just take a look at the title screen to tell if the issues still remain.
If the player’s cap Is yellow and the speech bubble looks solid (one will appear after the player has walked for a few seconds), I think all the other places should be good as well.

I'll load up the game this evening and take a look.

It's fixed. All the smoke and speech bubbles look good.

That’s great to hear!
Did the player’s cap also appear yellow?

Why didn’t you share the link or name of the game here? Very bizarre

Not a good look... Not bothering to link your game... Failed marketing 101... 😀🤣

Edit your post with the link so people don’t have to scroll to find it.
