Hope it’s good, I’ve played a few games that claimed to have controller support and it was bad… had to keep the mouse handy to do certain things.
The massive Satisfactory 1.1 update is out now with controller support

This is an exciting update!
I’ve been wanting to play Satisfactory on SteamDeck, but the controls/user interface were low quality to the point of unplayability.
I hope they decide it’s okay to highlight things I should trying clicking on. It doesn’t break immersion to live in a sci-fi galaxy where space engineers also have taken some accessibility training.
I really want to play through Satisfactory, so I love to see this effort to make it SteamDeck ready.

My biggest beef with playing it on SteamDeck was related to network connectivity.
I was playing at home and went a long way from base. Then I had to take my daughter to a class and threw the Deck in my backpack to play while I waited for her to finish.
The game opened, said it had lost the connection to the server and killed me. I respawned back at base, thought about how far I’d need to walk to recover my body and noped right out of there to play Vampire Survivors instead. I never returned.
That was a couple of years ago while the game was still in early access. If it’s now possible to play offline, I might give it another go. (It’s a nice game.)
