Thanks, it actually looks like just what I’ve been looking for - but for the lacking load/save thing. I’ll give it a try after work tomorrow and see how it goes. Cheers!

Thanks, I’ll check it out and see if it works.
The problems I’ve had is that everything I’ve tried either doesn’t seem to like the steam deck, or the controls don’t work, or i would need to play it in the browser from desktop.
I’m the kind of player who isn’t very good, wants to play against the computer, and usually I just want to fire up a saved game when I’ve finished my real gaming, make a couple of moves, and save the game until next day. If it takes a lot of faff with desktop, graphics settings, etc - I just wouldn’t end up using it.
I guess I’m just a little surprised I’ve not found something simple and steam deck verified. Thanks for your suggestions, I’ll check em out!

Just to add that I did buy shotgun king and I’m enjoying it. But it’s not plain chess, and that’s what I am looking for!

- Comment on Might as well get a laptop??? 6 months ago:
My issue is power consumption. Where I live, I rely on solar panels and batteries, and the steam deck is less power hungry than a laptop with graphics card.

Wow thanks for all the suggestions, I’ll check em out, pretty sure there’s something there my mate and i can agree on.
- Comment on Steam deck LAN? And game suggestions? 6 months ago:
We’re using mobile hotspots, that’s our only internet access. We can both connect to the same one though.
Thanks for the suggestion, I’ll check it out!

Looks great, thanks!
- Comment on Steam deck LAN? And game suggestions? 6 months ago:
Thanks for the detailed response. Yeah, I’d thought the LAN thing would be tricky - the issue is that where we live, we have to rely on mobile hotspots for internet connectivity and the speed isn’t the best. It’s usable, I think we were just hoping to find a more effective workaround! And thanks for the suggestions too, I’ll check em out.

- Comment on [Discussion] What games are you playing on your deck? - December 2024 6 months ago:
I’m still mostly playing doom 2016.
I had a twenty year break from gaming and I’ve been trying to catch up since I got the steam deck but I remain pretty crap. I’m playing doom on little bitch mode and still finding it a challenge. I’m about half way through, I don’t get a lot of gaming time.
I keep starting other games but not getting into them. But I think I’m gonna give dishonoured a try too.
Steam deck is probably the best machine I’ve bought in years.
- Comment on [Discussion] Steam Autumn Sale has started. What are you buying for your Steam Deck? 7 months ago:
Alien isolation Uncharted legacy of thieves Resident evil Bioshock infinite.
I’m just getting back into gaming after a twenty year gap so I’ve got loads to catch up on. I’ve been enjoying FPS stuff, but I’m frustratingly bad, even on easy mode. Need more time for practise but work long hours, ho hum. Hopefully I’ll find time to try all of the above. Recently finished bioshock original and loved it.

Tbh the physics makes crashes pretty fun. I do a lot of driving for my job and try to be a responsible, careful driver. So it’s nice to fire up the steam deck sometimes and drive like a complete wanker!

I’ve just started playing beam ng drive. Looks great so far, but I’m pretty shit at it.
