Thinking of picking up Risk of Rain Returns, but I just need a little bit of confirmation that it plays well on the steam deck.
Just about any 2d game will run at infinite fps
Always look into ProtonDB - The community over there is almost always the most frequent and newest source for stability on steam deck
Yep. I can attest personally.
Been playing it off and on all day, works perfectly
It’s perfect on the deck
Played PC first and I feel like it slows down a bit on the deck. Like the animations are slower or time is slowed down ever so slightly.
Overall it’s still great but curious if I’m going crazy or not
Try setting the “Fullscreen Display” option in settings to “Auto-Detect (Exclusive)”. The game works fine for me, but I’ve seen a few linux users say that the game ran in slow motion until they changed that option.
That definitely improved it dramatically! Timing the seconds with a timer it still seems ever so slightly slower but this setting made it less painful
Glad to know I wasn’t just crazy. Thanks for the tip!
Game speed in this is also tied to framerate, so if you’re playing with a framerate limit below 60 it’ll play slower.
It’s amazing. Pretty much works off the bat, although I’d recommend increasing the UI scale and zoom
