I got it on Steam because I saw that there's a tool someone built to create an APK of your Steam game. Worked flawlessly and now I'm playing too much of it on both my computer AND my phone

I got it on steam so I could play it on my r36s handheld haha

[–] LifeLikeLady@lemmy.world 4 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Can you cross progress once you've made the APK?

[–] bagelberger@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago

There's a way to bring over Steam saves to the APK when you make it, but no cross progression unfortunately.

does this work for any other steam games? can you share a link?

[–] sag@lemm.ee 6 points 3 days ago (2 children)

Work only for Balatro(Maybe also for other Love 2D Engine game). https://github.com/blake502/balatro-mobile-maker

Are you aware of anything like this but for slay the spire?

[–] sag@lemm.ee 2 points 2 days ago

Slay the Spire is already available for android. And Balatro too.

I bought it (again) to have it in my pocket. (The steam deck doesn't quite fit). Absolutely worth it 100%.

If we could mod the phone version I would never need another.

[–] Linktank@lemmy.today 9 points 4 days ago (1 children)

What kind of mods are you talking about exactly? I haven't gotten to the final stage of any of the decks yet so I haven't explored those options.

[–] Hideakikarate@sh.itjust.works 6 points 4 days ago

Fair, I haven't beaten all of them myself, but when I do, I'll need those mods. They made Binding of Isaac so much fun after beating that, too.

[–] DaMonsterKnees@lemmy.world 12 points 3 days ago

Honestly, it's like Stardew Valley. It's so good, I'll get a version for my toaster if they release one.

[–] Kit@lemmy.blahaj.zone 13 points 3 days ago

It's a good fuckin game.

[–] mundane@feddit.nu 8 points 3 days ago (2 children)

Thanks for the tip. I have never heard of this game before. It's so refreshing with a game that isn't optimized to squeeze every last drop from my wallet. I'll gladly pay up front for a good game

[–] NOT_RICK@lemmy.world 5 points 3 days ago

It’s amazing, but also too easy to lose 4 hours playing in what feels like minutes

[–] cRazi_man@lemm.ee 5 points 3 days ago

Yup. They took my money again as well.

[–] AgentGrimstone@lemmy.world 3 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I bought the hype. I don't think it meets it but it is a good game that I will keep installed.

[–] sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 days ago

Games never meet the hype, which is why I generally try to avoid hype.
