This page contains information useful for developing Minetest for the Steam Deck. Contact rubenwardy with any questions.

Installing as an end user

Simply switch to Desktop mode and install from the flatpak.

You can enable the controls by going to Settings > All Settings > Search for joystick > Enable joystick. However, you'll probably get better results with Steam's builtin input binding feature

A keyboard is needed for full control, as the onscreen keyboard doesn't work yet. If you enable fullscreen, you'll also need a keyboard to exit Minetest (unless you return to steam using the power button)
