Works great on Deck!

Didn't tweak any settings, runs smooth as silk at the defaults (highest detail, AA off).
It crashed a couple times during the first few levels, but not since.

A fun, clear game with a lot of personality. Frozenbyte hits again!

I have a FPS lock of 30 frames on my deck, how can remove it?

Does that happen only in battery mode? If so, then it's a power saving feature that unfortunately can only be turned off by editing the options.txt file. On Windows, the file is in %appdata%/Shadwen folder, but I don't know what is the equivalent on Steamdeck.

If you find the file, find a line

setOption(renderingModule, "OnBatteryFramerateLimit", 30)

and set a better limit. I think 0 turns the limit off altogether, but any high value will also do for that. While at it, you can also set

setOption(renderingModule, "OnBatteryRenderingQualityReductionEnabled", true)

to false.

Old post, but to make this easier for folks (I found this page looking for Shadwen on Steam Deck), the path is:

/home/deck/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/compatdata/425210/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/AppData/Roaming/Shadwen

If you're on another linux system, just replace "/home/deck/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/" with whatever the install path is (will be system and disk dependent).

Edit - @JLarja, what does the "setOption(renderingModule, "OnBatteryRenderingQualityReductionEnabled", true)" setting change specifically? I notice the difference with it on vs. off isn't very dramatic in terms of power difference. Maybe 1-2 watts, and sometimes no difference at all depending on what's in the area.

Unfortunately, I don't quite remember. The feature was originally developed for Trine 2, at the request from Intel (Windows tablets were heavily marketed back then), so it's possible it doesn't do much at all. I seem to remember that it maybe lowered anisotropic filtering quality (Anisotropy property in options.txt), but I may be recalling wrong.
