Now released as open source
As the developer for this game has shut down, we've decided to release it as free to play and also open source under a very permissive license. We hope you enjoy!
The game works on Steam Deck, in fact we believe it should qualify for full compatibility, however we are waiting on Valve for an official Steam Deck compatibility review.
