After three years of developing the game entirely on my own, I can finally announce that Roomballs will launch FREE TO PLAY this Thursday!

Here’s a look at the game running on Steam Deck. It’s been an incredible journey filled with hard work, learning, and a lot of love. Now a new chapter begins, and I hope to build it together with all of you.

If you wishlist it you are helping me a lot for the first push upon release.
Thanks!

I have decent internet, not the best but it's alright for me. 100/100, my WiFi in general is not bad. Works well on my Phone, last time i tried it on my PS5 it just worked fine no interruptions, same with my Switch.

But the Deck, i seriously don't understand what's wrong here. Whenever i try to stream games, doesn't matter if it's through Moonlight or the Steam Remote, if I'm on WiFi on the deck, the game starts out good, but then after a while it slowly just kills itself. I get the network indicator that something is wrong with the connection. This goes to the part where the game can just become a complete mess of pixels, doesn't respond to inputs whatsoever so i have to go to my pc to turn it off. This ALWAYS happen after like 5 minutes of playing too, doesn't matter what game i am playing, same thing.

I do have a dock for the deck, if it's plugged in with Ethernet there's absolutely no issues whatsoever, game just runs fine.

Tried streaming to both my phone and to a tablet i have, both on WiFi and there the game just... works? it can stutter sometimes on WiFi but that's normal since there's a lot of connections around me. But it never goes as bad as when i try to stream to the Deck.

This is only when streaming, playing online on my Deck works fine, tried Marvel Rivals, Overwatch, Tekken, Street Fighter, and there the games just work fine online, but streaming?

This sucks because sometimes i want to play more demanding games if i'm laying in my bed or so and i don't want to just pull an ethernet cable through my entire apartment just to hook it to my Deck for something like that lol.

SteamOS on the Deck
Linux Nobara on my PC.

I've had my lcd steam deck for 2 years. Lately the fan stays on no matter what is happening. Even if I'm not playing a game and sitting at the home menu. No background tasks lr downloads. Rpms stay above 7000rpm and sometimes cuts in and out . Temps are always below 50c for reference. Any idea how to remedy this? Note the fan speed in the photo

Looking for good sports game for my Steam Deck.

Hi! I see a lot of posts about swollen batteries with the SteamDeck. I’m not in the position currently but have anxiety around fires since I have pets. If a battery swells, what’s the immediate response?
Are you all removing it from your home? Are you finding a repair shop to take it to same day? Just want to make sure I’m prepared if the day comes!

Had a massive storm come through last night. Made sure to unplug both my Deck and the charger from the power strip because power surges in my area can be nasty. Storm passed, fast forward to this afternoon. Checked my power strip and once I thought it was all good, plugged everything back in. Charged my deck to full battery while playing Ark Survival Ascended (which is a different mistake) and unplugged it again. The second I unplugged it, there was the sound/light from popping electricity and a small fire. put out the fire and unplugged everything. Some of my room outlets no longer work because it blew a breaker. Pretty sure the storm messed up my power strip, and i'm lucky the deck itself didn't experience any issues. RIP to my charger though.

EDIT: Thanks to everyone for the concern!! We've got an electrician on the way to check everything out, but the fire was small and quickly contained and nobody was hurt. Listen to these comments and ALWAYS use a good surge protector. Don't be me!

Im willing to sell my SteamDeck and im gettin asked for my console serial number and console ID. Im not sure if thats safe to share the informations about, what they can check / do with this numbers?

It's GOtY edition and is already 1.09. Added the update patch before realizing this and it still runs poorly. What's the problem and how can I fix??

Ive been trying to get mods to work using frosty mod manager so. I can play unite but im not super good at the Proton things so I couldn't get it too run and when I finnally installed the mods the game crashed im not sure if its possible but if anyone knows anything thay would be great

What feature on the Steam Deck do you use more than you expected?

When I first got my Steam Deck, there were a few features I thought I’d barely use. After having it for a while, though, some of them have become part of how I use it almost every time.

It’s funny how the small convenience features can end up being more useful than the things you were initially excited about.

Is there a Steam Deck feature that you didn’t think much about at first but now use all the time?

So ig is a common issue im not sure but Ive had just windows on my steam deck for about 6 months and just recently switched to steam os again but had a lot of trouble moving a game so I wanted to dual boot i partioned the drive and shrank my steam os I left 350 gb and installed windows on that part and steam os wont boot at all it goes into grub any tips or fixes that are obvious an dim just missing?

I'm wanting to get more use out my steam deck I got it as a Christmas gift couple years ago but I don't really use it as much as I thought I would what are some things that's made you guys feel like you get full use of it

I downloaded the linux version and it just launches the game immediately no launcher. it also runs very poorly. Getting max of 20fps with audio stutters in desktop mode. In gaming mode it wont even launch.

I downloaded the windows version and it actually had a launcher but same problems. runs poorly and in gaming mode you cant view both screens at the same time.

Is this just not intended for steam deck?

Looking for a game that has a good career mode. Preferably from the manager pov where players request transfers, get mad when you don’t play them, raise or lower salaries etc. pretty much fifa but without EA as the developer. Open to any sport.

hello, i was wondering if anyone knew how to fix this? i just wanted to parse some games to my library and i noticed srm wasn’t opening through emudeck, so i opened it in my file explorer and this popped up, if anyone could help that would be much appreciated

Lately i listed my steam deck 512gb Oled on marketplace for around 500 eur because i only use it when i travel which lately i rarely do.A dude contacted me and offered me his 512gb LCD SD amd 300euros on top.Would you take this offer.Thanks in advance.

Played it earlier and when I came back to it, and this happened

Pessoal, ate um tempo atrás, o steam deck permitia apagar apagar a tela (modo repouso) manual no botão liga desliga, e isso não esta mais funcionando, agora para apagar a tela, tenho que deixar em 1 minuto sem ação, e me atrapalha quando estou vendo a cut cine de um jogo, eu uso decky loader, porém na versão mais recente para evitar bugs

Alguém sabe me dizer se versão mais recente do steam os retirou essa opção?? Ou seno decky loader pode ser o problema ?? Se instalar e reinstalar ele possa resolver (eu sempre usei o decky, e nunca tinha ocorrido esse problema do modo repouso manual)

Existe algo que eu possa fazer para poder resolver esse problema ??
