RetroDECK brings an environment to catalog and play your retro games directly from SteamOS and it's tailored specifically for the Steam Deck.
It's inspired by embedded emulation systems like AmberELEC, EmuELEC, CoreELEC, Lakka, and Batocera.</p>
<p>
Powered by EmulationStation Desktop Edition, which uses RetroArch and other standalone emulators to allow you to import and play your favorite retro (and even not-so-retro) games in a tidy environment without flooding your Steam library.
No other software is needed as everything it's already included!</p>
What is Retrodeck?</br>
RetroDECK is an emulation and retro gaming solution to catalog and play your game collection directly from Linux in one unified application.
It's inspired by other embedded emulation systems like AmberELEC, EmuELEC, CoreELEC, Lakka, and Batocera.
RetroDECK is powered by EmulationStation Desktop Edition, that uses RetroArch and other standalone emulators to allow you to import and play your favorite games in a tidy environment.
No other software is needed as everything it's already included in one package!
</p>
<p>
NOTE: Albeit RetroDECK could possibily work on every distro, it's supported only on Steam Deck.</p>
BETA NOTICE: RetroDECK is still in Beta and the team is actively developing and adding more features.
</p>
<p>About the Beta:</br>
The primary focus during the beta period is on SteamOS and the Steam Deck but we hope to expand to more devices and general Linux desktop in the future (NOTE: It can be run on Linux desktop right now but there will be some manual configurations needed for input, storage location and other tiny hickups).
</p>
<p>
NOTE: Albeit RetroDECK could possibily work on every distro, it's supported only on Steam Deck.
</p>
<p>INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS:</p>
<p>INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE STEAM DECK:</p>
<ul>
<li>Start RetroDECK from the Desktop mode (first time only)</li>
<li>Follow the setup (read carefully!)</li>
<li>Add RetroDECK to your Steam Library</li>
<li>[OPTIONAL] Download Steam Grids with BoilR</li>
<li>Always start RetroDECK from Steam Library</li>
<li>1. Start RetroDECK from the Desktop mode (only needed for the initial first time configuration)</li>
<li>2. Add RetroDECK to your Steam Library by pressing "Add a non-steam game to my library"</li>
<li>3. Download the offical RetroDECK controller profile from Steam</li>
<li>4. [OPTIONAL] Download Steam Grids graphics for RetroDECK with BoilR</li>
</ul>
<p>For a better experience is suggested to use the official Steam Controller Config available under community configs in Steam</p>
<p>Known Issues:</p>
<ul>
<li>PCSX2: due to its limitation, the standalone PCSX2 doesn't have any way to set the hotkeys, so no save and load state, no quit button. In order to quit press: STEAM -> PCSX2 -> (X) CLOSE WINDOW, be aware that the state is not automatically saved</li>
<li>As of this moment external controllers, local multiplayer in gamemode are not supported. Neither is running RetroDECK in desktop mode, we plan on adding the functionality in the future</li>
</ul>
