Analysis — Sackboy: A Big Adventure on the Steam Machine
Adventure games spend their budget on atmosphere rather than speed. On the RX 7600-class GPU, lighting quality and resolution cost the most, so FSR Quality is the trade to make if native looks soft.
Spend the headroom on a 1440p output with FSR Quality; an adventure game shows resolution more than frame-rate.
47 ProtonDB reports rate it Gold (runs perfectly after tweaks), in line with Valve's Deck Verified rating.
Steam lists full controller support, so it plays from the sofa without a keyboard. It also has shared/split-screen co-op on Steam's list, which suits a living-room box with a second controller.
