One more thing that is neat about releasing a game on Steam: There’s a chance that it will run on the Steam Deck, as well!
I’m using Electron to bundle the Savanna Sam web game as an EXE file for Windows. I then upload those to Steam.
At first, I assumed that I had to configure Electron to create a Linux build of the game on top of that in order to run on the Steam Deck, since the device is running Valve’s own Linux distribution.
I was so happy when we gave the existing Windows version a go on a collegue’s Steam Deck just on a whim and it simply ran out of the box!
Apparently, the Windows emulation on the Steam Deck is really good! No further preparation or tinkering on my side was needed to run Savanna Sam on there with no apparent issues.
