«Not the best "port" but still a classic that works perfectly on the Deck.»

«Whether you're into shmups or not, this is an awesome party game that's also pretty fun in singleplayer. Works perfectly on the Deck.»

«Another cool shmup from Astroport with an updated version of the mechanic from Witchbot Meglilo. not my favorite game from them but still a good one. Works perfectly on the Deck.»

«Solid unlicensed megadrive Beat Them Up that kind of feels like Knights of the Round with the magic system from Gaia Crusaders. Switch the controls to keyboard and mouse.»

«In my opinion Take No Prisoners is a classic. The community layout from poodledude is pretty good but can take a little while to get accustomed to. Works perfectly on the Deck.»

«Great 1vs1 racing platformer with great gameplay, sound design, rope mechanics, level variety, good pixel art... It's really good and deserves much more love.»

«Fun and addictive little game with only two buttons that are used both to shoot and move your ship. It's pretty simple but hard to master.»

«Fun puzzle-game that works perfectly on the deck. Don't listen to people comparing it to Puyo Puro; it doesn't play like it at all. It plays like Pnickies (which is on the Capcom 2nd Arcade Stadium).»

«Cool puzzle-game that can be played entirely with the touchscreen.»

«My 2nd favorite "normal" Shmup from Triangle Service with DeltaZeal. Pretty fun game with a cool weapon system.»

«Fun little Shmup that's more on the Touhou side of the genre. Very easy to 1CC on normal difficulty. Lots of content for the price.»

«Great gameplay, great OST & great graphics for a great Shoot'em up. Too bad the superior exa-arcadia version will stay stuck in the arcades.»

«Another great modern game that totally feels like a lost arcade game in every way. Outside of the arcade influences cited in the store page, it feels like the dev totally played some Killer Queen.»

«Pretty fun action platformer with big sprites. Nothing original but pretty enjoyable in my opinion.»

«Cool updated version of this fun Defender-like shoot them up. Perfect for short sessions. The original wouldn't launch on the Deck but this one works perfectly out of the box.»

«Awesome Shmup from G.Rev with 2 different campaigns & a cool weapon system. Would be great to see Under Defeat and Border Down on Steam but I guess that's never going to happen.»

«Sweet little cute 'em up with 2 difficulties and 2 characters (who kind of act like 2 different difficulties themselves). The checkpoint system is pretty forgiving. Works perfectly on the Deck.»

«Awesome free puzzle-game with lots of stages. Pretty challenging (even more so if you want to get all the stars). It's free and fits the Deck perfectly so just try it if you're into puzzle-games.»

«Great run and gun in the vein of Contra from the developer behind Gana Blade. Works perfectly out of the box.»

«Very fun little shoot'em up that plays like some kind of weird flat Tempest. It also has online leaderboards.»

«Another excellent single-screen game that would feel right at home in an arcade cabinet. Like Dig Dug infused with some Bomberman. Works perfectly on the Deck.»

«Pretty fun Wario Ware-like. Not that much content though.»

«I'm one of the weirdos who always liked this weird mix of shoot them up and beat them up. Works great on the Deck.»

«Cool remake of the classic with 3 arcade modes and 30 challenges. Fits the Deck perfectly for some short sessions.»

«Fun little collection of minigames if you miss Track and Field and other sports games of this kind. Works perfectly on the Deck.»

«Pretty fun single-screen platformer that borrows the ladder mechanic from Rod Land. Kind of sad to not include any sort of scoring for the arcade mode though. Works perfectly out of the box.»

«The last game in the Zeno trilogy and this time it alternates between shmup and top down run and gun (which are kind of similar to the ones in Contra 3) stages. Works perfectly out of the box.»

«Cool little Q*bert inspired game that's pretty easy to 1CC. Kind of weird that you don't get bonus points for remaining HP+timer. Would have been cool to have some harder difficulty settings.»

«Another great shmup form Toaplan. Also includes the original japanese version V・V which has a Gradius-like power up system and no bombs. Works perfectly out of the box.»

«Cool Shoot Them Up but only recommended to people who like old school ones where losing a life can end your game. Has a local coop mode added compared to the arcade original.»

«Relaxing golf game that you'll never finish in your lifetime. Fits the Deck perfectly for some short sessions.»

«Very simple but pretty fun and challenging game with only 1 button + left and right. Good for short sessions on the Deck. Works perfectly out of the box.»

«Fun and cheap game that kind of plays like Mr. Driller with bombs, upgrades, jumping and enemies added making it feel closer to a roguelike. Pretty tough but cool for short sessions on the Deck.»

«Good puzzle-platformer with lots of stages and some cool mechanics. Download the delRhode's controller config and use the touchscreen when needed. Works great.»

«If you like the Bishi Bashi series ( or Track and Field), you should enjoy this Korean clone. This kind of game is obviously much more fun against a human than against that cheating computer.»

«Not the best looking shmup but a pretty fun one. Enemies you destroy leave scraps that you can absorb to either throw small bombs or create shields (also to get 1ups). Works out of the box.»

«Good horizontal shoot 'em up with a bullet time mechanic from the people who made Space Moth. Pretty challenging in my opinion. Works perfectly out of the box.»

«I didn't like this game the 2 or 3 times I tried it over the years but it finally clicked. Pretty fun wave-based single screen beat'em up with simple mechanics. Perfect for short sessions.»

«The least enjoyable shoot them up from TRIANGLE SERVICE for me. Not bad but games like DELTAZEAL, Shmups Skill Test or Trizeal are much better in my opinion. Works perfectly out of the box.»

«Pretty fun shmup that's far more forgiving than most of the other games from the dev. Not the best looking game though. Works perfectly on the deck.»

«Great mix of Pong and Shmup that's obviously more enjoyable against another player. Works great on the Deck but don't look at the leaderboards; it makes the game crash.»

«The original is a cool indie shmup. This updated version is better in every way but also pretty different. Works perfectly out of the box, same for Space Moth DX if you're curious about it.»

«Good game. Yes, there's some input lag. I don't think it's unplayable though. Good thing you can get the game by other means and play it in an emulator if you think it is. Works perfectly on the Deck.»

«It's actually a pretty fun Shoot 'em Up with a cool bullet counter mechanic that transforms enemy shots into homing lasers. Works perfectly out of the box.»

«Fun single screen platformer that I didn't like much at first. Change the game to fullscreen in the options, download the only controller configuration there is and you're good to go.»

«Cool Roguelike that I find much more fun on the Deck than I did last time I played it on my PC years ago.»

«Fun action platformer but too easy due to infinite lives and pretty forgiving checkpoints. Would have been cool to have a harder difficulty with a continue system. Works perfectly out of the box.»

«Classic & perfect for short sessions.»

«Cool shmup with lots of unlockables to make your ship(s) overpowered in the vein of Tyrian and a Gradius-like power-up system. If the game gets locked at 30FPS, changing the graphics quality fixes it.»

«Great Shoot'em up that I never managed to play on the Deck despite what some people on protondb claim. The GMS2 port beta test that started in August works perfectly though.»

«That's how you remaster a game (it would have been even better if they included the original version since the passage from 4:3 to 16:9 changes the game in many ways).»

«Not sure why some people have problems running it on the Deck. Works out of the box for me. It's not the best Bomberman power-up wise etc.... but still a fun game.»

«Pretty Shmup from Astroport that's very easy to 1CC in normal considering all the hits you can take with its combining robot mechanic. It's short enough for quick sessions. Great for some casual fun.»

«Great puzzle-game with a cute artstyle that works perfectly on the Deck.»

«An awesome puzzle-game with beautiful graphics and fun combo mechanics.»

«One of the best Shoot'em up ever with even more modes than in the last version. Novice is great for anyone who wants to get in Bullet Hell shmups. Classic.»

«2 great Shoot Them Ups from Visco + a mediocre one specifically developped for this collection. Works perfectly on the Deck.»

«Excellent fighting game with some singleplayer content and unlockables. Works perfectly on the Deck despite being marked as unsupported. Just switch the compatibility to proton experimental.»

«Not much content but what's there is quite enjoyable if you're into hi-score chasing.»

«Fun puzzle-platformer with great pixel art in which you lay bombs instead of jumping.»

«Another good metroidvania with lots of puzzles.»

«Amazing horizontal Cute'Em Up with some cool mechanics. Would have been better if the local coop mode from the AC version was included. Beautiful on the Deck.»

«Classic from Psikyo. Barebones like the other "ports" but works perfectly on the Deck.»

«Really fun 1-button Shoot'Em Up.»

«One of the most fun and addictive series of puzzle games. It's the best Mr. Driller and it's great to play on a portable machine. Many cool modes in this one.»

«Great homage to Rolling Thunder that works great on the Deck. Quite hard. I don't think there's any difference between the free version and the other one (which is very cheap anyway).»

«Well...It's Xeno Crisis and it works perfectly on the Deck. Good pixel art and good gameplay but pretty tough. There are some old school cheat codes for infinite lives, ammo... and hidden modes.»

«Another cool fighting game wit 1-hit kills and simple controls. It has a short story mode and some other singleplayer content. The roster is pretty small. Works perfectly out of the box.»

«Another excellent shoot them up that works great on the Deck. If you played it on your PC and changed the resolution above 1024x768 it won't start. Just revert it back in the config menu.»

«Well...it's Radiant Silvergun and it works perfectly out of the box despite being marked as unsupported.»

«One of the best entry points into horizontal shmups for beginners. A story mode with a shop & each stages being played separately with multiple difficulties + a normal arcade mode with powerups etc...»

«Awesome rail shooter that works out of the box. Many things to unlock. Try disabling the FPS limiter from Steam if the game runs at 40 FPS in the 1st stage.»

«A great puzzle-platformer, just like the 1st game. It works perfectly out of the box on the Deck.»

«Takes a little bit of time to get going but it's a really cool action RPG that plays like a good beat them up. The tag mechanics are cool when you play solo. Works perfectly out of the box.»

«Simple but pretty fun racing game that works perfectly out of the box on the Deck.»

«Excellent Beat Them Up that works perfectly on the Deck. Would be cool to have a proper arcade mode (which is supposed to come in an update).»

«Excellent indie fighting game that works perfectly. No real singleplayer content as of now and no online so only grab it if you use your deck for local multiplayer (or remote play together I guess).»

«Kind of like a fastpaced Q-bert with much more freedom of movement and powerups. It's pretty great and challenging if you wanna get the V rank on every map. Works perfectly out of the box.»

«Pretty cool twin-stick shooter that pays homage to the Strike series from Electronic Arts. Varied missions etc... Works perfectly out of the box.»

«Pretty fun roguelike beat 'em up. It works perfectly but the game freezes during the loading screen after beating the last boss (it still saves the game normally and unlocks the achievements though).»

«Great little fighting game with very simple mechanics that will teach you the fundamentals of the genre. Fun singleplayer arcade mode. Works perfectly out of the box.»

«Didn't work last time I tried but it's finally playable. Great metroidvania that's divided in multiple stages that you can revisit when you want to. Grab a community layout and you're good to go.»

«Another awesome shoot'em up from Picorinne Soft with an excellent weapon/power-up system. Much better than the original game. Works flawlessly and looks great on the Deck.»

«Great racing game that works perfectly on the Deck. Not sure why they didn't go with the Fully Loaded version though.»

«One of my favorite Psykio Shmups. Download the only controller configuration there's and you're good to go.»

«Very good horizontal cute 'em up with straightforward scoring mechanics. Works perfectly on the Deck.»

«Pretty cool take on Castlevania with some challenging bosses. Wish we would see more doujin games from the 90's and 2000's getting rereleases on Steam. Works perfectly on the deck.»

«Excellent puzzle-game with a lot of single-player content. Local multiplayer is great too with some cool modes. Works perfectly out of the box.»

«Pretty fun game in the style of Donkey Kong Country. They totally nailed the movements and controls, it just feels good to control the Marsupilami. Infinitely better than the Megadrive game.»

«I think I had some problems last time I tried to play it on the Deck but it now works perfectly out of the box. Not the best fighting game but pretty enjoyable in my opinion.»

«Awesome party game that's very fun and looks great. Only recommended for local multiplayer (or remote play together), not for singleplayer. Works perfectly out of the box.»

«It may not be a looker but it's actually a pretty fun single-screen platformer. Works perfectly out of the box.»

«Not a very good game...but, if for some reason you wanna get it, you'll have to configure some keys and change some graphical settings to get a stable framerate (I played at 40 fps).»

«There's fun little game that plays like "Tanks!" in "Wii Play" hiding underneath those brownish graphics. It has workshop support but there's not much there. Works perfectly out of the box.»

«Not bad if you're in the mood for a DOS action-platformer without too much exploration. Works perfectly out of the box. »

«Twin-stick shmup for up to 4 players that are replaced by bots if you're alone. No real challenge except if you want to meet the true last boss I guess. Works perfectly out of the box.»

«Pretty janky action-platformer with some basic combat and level design with most enemies just moving towards you. You can feel there's some heart put into it though and it's free.»

«Very cool experimental 3D platformer with interesting mechanics and multiple ways to finish the stages. It can feel a little janky but it's free so just try it if you're interested. Works perfectly.»
