Company Valve is working on a developer tool to simplify the process of optimizing games for a handheld game console Steam Deck…
This was told by the designer of the company Lawrence Yang in a conversation with PC Gamer, who visited Valve headquarters for a recent hands-on experience with the device. This is an automatic optimization feature similar to the one found in the NVIDIA GeForce Experience Control Panel…
“We’ll have something like that. An API that game developers can call for requests like,” Is this a Steam Deck? If so, use these settings. “
The toolkit, in particular, should make it easier to work with 16:10 aspect ratio, 800p resolution and other features of the Steam Deck. The company wouldn’t be able to customize all of the games on its own, but it will give developers the ability to do it themselves.
One of the advantages of the Game Optimization API Valve cites the fact that with it developers will have access to the exact characteristics of the Steam Deck and will be able to configure everything so that their projects work perfectly on the platform.
“As an added bonus, you never have to worry about Google searching for driver updates and a lot of other PC stuff. We take those questions to our own, offering a convenient, one-piece device that just works well.”
The launch of the Steam Deck is scheduled for December this year.
