I know, it’s weird, but literally there’s something about the deck that puts me to sleep. It’s not the game, I don’t have the issue with the same game on my pc. It’s not where I play, cause I can play on my phone there or watch tv there without falling asleep. I tried tinkering with the framerate cause somehow I got it in my head that it could be that, but, surprising no one, it didn’t lead to anything. Anyone have any similar experiences?

    Are you looking down at the deck while you play it? I read somewhere that just the simple act of looking down triggers your brain into thinking it’s sleep time. And that opposite is also true. Looking up for an extended time will wake you up. I’m at work or I’d Google a reference to verify….

    But yes. I get tired too playing mine in bed, I assumed because I am looking down at it (belly height) But not at my desk. Where I lower my chair enough to. Use the edge as an elbow rest, so my deck is about eye level.

    I have exactly the same problem and searched “sleepy” and found your post OP. Doesn’t matter what game I’m playing, where I’m playing or what time of day, within 10 minutes of booting up I can feel my eyelids shutting and is a literal struggle to stay awake. I might have to try looking up when I play as others have suggested. Doesn’t happen to me on any other device either. Weird
