Analysis — Starship EVO on the Steam Machine
This kind of action game is GPU-bound on the Machine: the frame-rate follows resolution and post-processing. FSR is the main lever when frames get tight; effects and shadows go before textures.
ProtonDB is more cautious than Valve's Deck Playable rating: 22 reports average Silver (runs with minor issues), so expect to read a fix or two before it's smooth.
Steam lists only partial controller support — some menus or modes may still want a mouse, and Steam Input's community layouts are the first thing to try.
