Now that we know how Aliens: Dark Descent runs on the Deck, let's take a quick look and see how it runs on the ! While it does run better, and can push 45 FPS, it does have its limits.

Aliens: Dark Descent has become one of my favorite games in the franchise with a great blend of RTS, Horror, and Action. With some compromises, can run really well on the !

@antoon it’s tough. Two very different styles of games, both really amazing. I would say it’s on par with each other.

@gadgetoid I am nothing if not ambitious :D but it’s only possible thanks to the community. You guys are what makes this possible and making these dreams come true. Thank you <3

@SeeJayEmm Thank you so much! You have no idea how much that means to us.

If it were up to me (Noah/BBQKITTY), I would have no ads at all. Im not a fan, so this decision was one I didn’t take lightly. That’s why I did a $1 tier. I wanted to find the lowest feasible amount I could do and get rid of ads and one I would be willing to pay for if I was a reader. I think $1 is fair in that regard.

How have you been enjoying the Deck? What’s your favorite game to play on it so far?
