Has anyone gotten Jazz Jackrabbit running on the deck?

It took a fair bit of work to get it running through Heroic Launcher, and it wound up being pretty laggy.

Ori and the blind forest

[Duffvader]

Project Zomboid
Hollow Knight
Vampire Survival
Stardew Valley
Terraria
Dave the diver
Rimworld
Factorio
Don't Starve

and much more (Emulator). Basicly every 2D games runs perfect on the Steam deck.

I'm running 2D Games with 60 fps every time without any problems. To be honest 2D games are my favorites games to play on my Steam Deck, because of the longer battery life and low load on my SD, so I don't hear the fan and it doesn't get heated too much.

But playing Diablo 4 on Steam Deck is also nice, but I capped it at 40 fps. I'm fine with that.

With a Heroic installation, go to your game's install directory - default is /home/deck/Games/Heroic/Jazz Jackrabbit/ - and open dosbox_jazz.conf. Scroll down to [cpu] and change cycles=auto to cycles=80000. This will drastically increase load times. If you still get audio stuttering, go to [mixer] and change prebuffer=25 to prebuffer=100.

Look up "Open Jazz" for a reverse-engineered source reimplementation.
