Why on Deck

Play this one alone, in the dark, with headphones. The neon-on-black pixel art was built for modest hardware, and it sings on the Deck’s screen: vivid and sharp. Each region takes 30–60 minutes to explore, so you can make real progress in a short session without losing your bearings. And the combat (timing, positioning, reading enemies) feels more immediate with the controller in your grip than it ever did on a desk.
