With the currently active Demo out, we wanted to put out some information on Steam Deck compatibility.
Dashwalk Dueling is playable on the Steam Deck through proton. Controller glyphs currently do not update to match based on controller type but the change between controller and keyboard. Mouse and touch input within menus are not yet fully functional.
Currently, gamepad input is fully supported as the main input type. The keyboard is also almost completely supported with just a few minor issues. Custom controls for all types will also be released soon.
Dashwalk Dueling is almost entirely playable on Steam Deck, currently, it is not up to Deck Verified guidelines but we are not far from reaching that point.
We will release another update when we reach any significant milestones in Steam Deck compatibility!
Fully Functional
Steam Deck gamepad style controls in-game
Menu navigation with gamepad controls
In Development
In-Game Control Customization
Menu navigation with mouse and touch input

On that note, if you have a Steam Deck, try out the demo and let us know if you run into any issues.
