DECK AND CONTROLLER / CURRENT NOTE

ReStory on Steam Deck: what works, what is partial

The safe answer is a support-status boundary, not a made-up perfect controller map.

STATUS SIGNALPlayable, partial input

Current support status checked August 20, 2026

01

SHORT ANSWER

Start here

ReStory launched as Playable on Steam Deck, not Verified. tinyBuild currently describes controller support as partial and the Deck/Linux path as Proton compatibility. Expect some pointer-heavy repair actions to need Steam Input or trackpad adjustments.

PRE-FLIGHT / 02

Before you change anything

  • Launch through the standard Steam compatibility path.
  • Keep the default layout available so you can revert.
  • Test one repair action at a time: point, drag, rotate and right-click.

PROCEDURE / 03

Run the diagnostic in order

  1. 01

    Start from the official boundary

    Treat Playable and partial controller support as the baseline. Do not expect a Verified experience.

  2. 02

    Name the failed action

    Identify whether the problem is cursor speed, dragging, rotation, right-click or another pointer action.

  3. 03

    Adjust only the missing action

    Use Steam Input to map the specific mouse action to a trackpad, trigger or stick. Avoid replacing the whole layout before you know the failing input.

  4. 04

    Re-test on the workbench

    Open a low-risk device and confirm point, drag and rotate before continuing a customer order.
