Just picked one of these up during the sale as well! Primarily because I can see that the steam deck is picking up steam...no pun intended and I thought it would be an awsome opportunity for my game.

I'm an indie developer and I've always had plans to port my game from mobile to steam but seeing the steam deck gain so much traction really got me excited!

My game is very much a pickup and play type of game and I'm seeing small indie games like that excel on the steam deck. Vampire Survivors and Brotato to name a few.

I received my steam deck yesterday and played for a few hours last night. I can't tell you all how excited am to get my game ported over and verified for this thing. It really is an incredible piece of gaming tech and it's got me super excited as an indie game developer!

For anyone interested my game is called Command Center Earth. I'm set to launch a huge update next week (2.0.0)!

Valve should get a free/discounted deck into the hands of every developer over a certain number of sales on steam. This is such a great story!

Thanks! That would be an amazing idea.

I get the feeling though that the scales are starting to tip in their favor where we are going to be needing them more then they are going to be needing us soon haha.

Kudos to valve though, it feels like they have been driving toward this dream for a while and they're finally starting to hit the sweet spot with the steamdeck.
