CSD 2 is now Steam Deck Verified!

I'm extremely excited to announce that CSD 2 is now fully Steam Deck compatible with this brand new update!

We wanted to take this opportunity to really make sure CSD 2 works great on the Deck, and so we've gone in and added a larger font size when playing on the deck for the food descriptions, modified the initial options to make sure the game looks great when you boot it up on your Deck for the first time, and updated it to use the latest Game Maker engine for faster performance on Windows and Deck.

In case you missed it, we also recently made Cook, Serve, Delicious! 3?! Steam Deck compatible! And if you want a change of pace from the fast rush that the CSD series provides, might I recommend our newest spinoff "chill" title called Cook Serve Forever that slows down the tempo and allows you to cook in a relaxing solarpunk story based adventure! Grab it with a discount in our CS Series bundle:

Thanks everyone and the details are below- and one last thing: later this month we're going to have some mouthwatering, absolutely Delicious announcements. These are gonna be big ones and you're not gonna want to miss it- be sure to join our Discord or sub to our Newsletter for up to the minute news on the future of CSD!


GAME ADDITIONS

  • Game is now officially Steam Deck Verified!
  • When playing on Steam Deck, font size and certain elements are increased for better legibility.
  • The game now uses the latest version of Game Maker, improving performance across Windows and Steam Deck.
  • Fixed a bug that caused the window to be off center for certain monitor setups.
  • Improved gamepad detection when playing on Steam Deck.
  • Note that the game only offers Borderless and Full Screen window options- due to the change in engine code we can no longer support Windowed mode. You will need to roll back to the previous version of the game via the beta branch to keep Windowed mode support.


SPECIAL NOTE

  4. In this game properties screen, choose Compatibility from the left-side menu.
  5. Check the box titled 'Force the use of a specific Steam Play compatibility tool.'
  6. From the new drop-down box underneath, select Proton 8.0-3.
  7. Return to your game and check for updates if it doesn't happen automatically
