Looking for something that won't kill my battey and has some depth. I have Vampire Survivor but that get stale after about 30 minutes.

Cat quest will take you about 5 hours to beat and is light to run. Streets of Rogue is good too.

How about SNES or GBA emulation? For what it’s worth, many flights now have a power outlet between the seats

If you prefer some story-heavy games, you can try Eastward. It has gorgeous art style and controls and UI are a great fit for handheld devices such as Deck and Switch. It takes ~15% battery a hour and can be completed in 10 to 15 hours.

If you're fine with longer games which will take 45-70 hours total, try some 2D JRPGs like Trails in the Sky FC (which also has nice touch input in menus!), Trails from Zero and Chained Echoes. All tree aren't battery-heavy at all.

Stardew Valley would be my pick.

Emulating Gamecube games is pretty low-spec if you compile the shaders beforehand. Battery life nets 2-3 hours on flights for me (Steam Deck). I have nearly 2000 hours of Animal Crossing GC combined, pls don't judge me 😅.

Does Satisfactory have controller support now?

[–] notfromhere@lemmy.one 2 points 1 year ago

Memmy app now has notifications so I just saw this. Steam Deck / Steam controllers work with any game. Satisfactory doesn’t have controller support but I’ve never felt I needed it as I have fully customized my controller experience thanks to Steam Input. If you bought on Epic you can still use Steam Input by adding it as a non steam game and launching from Steam.
