Minetest on Steam Deck: usage and review
blog.rubenwardy.com
In this article, I will explain how to set up Minetest on the deck, and review the controls, performance, and experience.

MineTest on a SteamDeck is so fun, y’all.

(Edit: MineTest is a free and open source game engine that started as a clone of Minecraft, and has grown to be that, and much more.)

I would have tried it sooner, if someone had mentioned it to me, so I’m mentioning it to you.

Edit: Disclaimer, I’m not the author of this blog. It’s the walkthrough I followed to start playing.

    1. WTF is Minetest?

    2. You shouldn’t really need a tutorial. Just download in the discover store. Then right click --> add to Steam.

    3. There’s a Decky Plugin for adding art to games. Forget the name of it. But it’s just a graphical UI and just click whichever art you want from the menu.

      It’s an open source minecraft-esque game engine with lots of different games people have made on it. The biggest being the one that replicates the featureset of Minecraft.
