The tropical open-world adventure game, Tchia, and the turn-based puzzler where you play as a ferret, Leaf's Odyssey, have both recently received patches to address issues the games had with the Steam Deck.

Tchia's patch addresses an issue with the size of text, as well as some performance issues with rain. This could be an attempt to get the game Steam Deck Verified, as the only issues Valve noted with Tchia on Steam Deck were small in-game text and performance issues with the default graphics configuration.

Leaf's Odyssey's patch, on the other hand, addresses issues the game had with the Steam Deck's controller. Specifically, the thumbstick's vertical direction was incorrectly inverted. It also fixed a couple of other Linux-specific issues, as well as general bug fixes for the game itself across all platforms. Leaf's Odyssey doesn't yet possess a Steam Deck compatibility rating.

It's great to see these games work specifically on fixes for the Steam Deck, so that as many people as possible can have an enjoyable experience on the device with minimal hassle. Long may it continue!

Tchia is available on Steam for $29.99 and is rated as Playable on the Steam Deck, due to the aforementioned performance issues and small in-game text, although hopefully both are somewhat alleviated with this latest patch.

Leaf's Odyssey is available on Steam for $15.00, although is currently 15% off until the end of May 2024. It has no Steam Deck compatibility rating, but as the developer is specifically supporting the Steam Deck, it seems likely that the game runs fine on the device.
