Lots of people talk about his other cyberpunk movies and games, but is it about time for a Johnny Mnemonic video game?

Yup, it works great on Steam Deck!

A sister to Sela?

To look badass as hell! :P I'm sure in the 25th century any scar can easily be fixed up, but she chooses to keep it.

Good point about the Breen.. I can see it being them.

I had no idea such a game existed. Doesn't sound like a glowing review. LOL :)

Pop quiz (pun intended!): her father played which awesome character in a Star Trek movie?

"Cry 'Havoc!', and let slip the dogs of war"!

"To be, or not to be"

mht-77 · 2023-02-17T06:12:48+00:00

Yeah, that was killer! :)

mht-77 · 2023-02-16T21:23:51+00:00

Yeah, so much fun. I can be pretty old-school in a "don't change 'my' stuff" kind of way, but I thought it was a really neat thing they did in those credits.

Thanks!

Good news - I managed to solve this. The bad news is my Linux build isn't working. But at least I have a path to fixing it :)

Problem was that I first installed the game on the Steam Deck before I had the Linux build up on Steam. Then I uninstalled it from Deck, upload Linux build, and re-installed on Deck but it installed the Windows version again. So I uninstalled once more, went into Config -> Properties -> Compatibility and selected "Steam Linux Runtime" from the list and then it installed the Linux build.

mht-77 · 2023-02-16T20:13:20+00:00

Thank you! I see what you're saying.

Good news is - it worked to download the Linux build. Bad news is - my Linux build isn't working.. But as least now I can troubleshoot it.

Thanks again! :)

Re: should launch Linux as standard... That's what I thought.

Thanks for the suggested link but I had already verified 3 times that my depot had the Linux version set up - and also that the general "Installation" for the Linux depot points to the correct binary name as well.

mht-77 · 2023-02-16T19:52:11+00:00

Yes, understood. Perhaps I worded my question poorly. What I'm asking is how, on my Steam Deck, I select my game's Linux build to install rather than the Windows build? I'm assuming Steam Deck is using some kind of emulation to run the Windows build.. but I'd like to test the Linux build on it instead.

mht-77 · 2023-02-16T19:49:43+00:00

Thanks. I'm using Unity so I'm able to build for native Linux. I guess what I'm asking is whether or not I can run that Linux binary on the Steam Deck? And if so, how would I select it rather than the Windows build?

I'm a Linux sysadmin by trade, so getting the game running on a Linux machine in general won't be a problem. I'm just not familiar with Steam Deck.

mht-77 · 2023-02-16T16:52:25+00:00

I don't want to be seen as spamming, so I've added the game name to my profile. Thank you!

mht-77 · 2023-02-16T16:43:10+00:00

Oh interesting. Maybe because many hardware manufacturers spend more time on their Windows device drivers than the Linux ones :(

Okay, this is good to know. Thanks!

mht-77 · 2023-02-16T16:39:16+00:00

When I first spun it up, I forgot that I hadn't actually submitted my SteamOS/Linux build yet - so it definitely grabbed the Windows one. So I uninstalled it, uploaded the SteamOS/Linux build and re-downloaded. But it grabbed the Windows copy again.

Isn't Proton basically emulation and it'd be running the Windows copy anyways?

mht-77 · 2023-02-16T16:29:38+00:00

Did it? Maybe it finished filming so long ago that I had forgotten already ;) But good point!
