Yeah, from what I played of it back in the day it does not strike me as deck friendly but good to know it works well on the deck
I've also played a fair bit of it on my Deck. I'd say it plays pretty nicely, though using the console based controls just felt so unintuituve to me so I'm just using the regular PC controls + some custom bindings.
It's still a little clunky with a controller but the touch screen really helps to fill in the gaps. I also map the paddle buttons to zoom in and out since that's really important.
It wouldn't take much to make it much more controller friendly. Maybe another ten years of development time. 😀
