    Tempting but last I checked they made this online only for some fucked reason, so it really defeats the purpose for me. Would love to have this on the steam deck for on tho go sessions.

      They reverted that for the SD. Works offline, might have to launch once on the network. I reinstalled when I installed Bazzite and never launched connected. I even had my savegame when I fired it up offline.

      The game can be played offline on the Steam Deck. You might also do the same on desktop Linux with:

      steamdeck=1 %command% in the launch options for the game.

      Although I haven’t tested it myself, and reports are mixed.

          I’ve seen some reports that it works with Windows too, although the syntax for setting it is slightly different. I’m guessing it was intended as an exception for the Steam Deck as offline mode not working on a handheld is more of an issue than a desktop.
