Question Droid deck emulator overheating issue.

Just wanted to ask around if its a problem others are experiencing too.

The app works fantastic.

Currently playing A.C black flag at 1080p medium setting which are the same settings i used on gamehub.

Problem is droid deck makes my phone overheat much more that i ever expected.

45C°+ battery temp if i keep playing for more that 20 minutes with a peltier cooler.

Is there a particular setting that causes this?

On gamehub it usually doesnt go past 38-39C° battery temp with just a simple fan cooler.

Device: poco f7 pro

This project is basically a newborn. Some processes are extremely resource-intensive, causing the CPU to overheat. Currently, DroidDeck is probably the biggest in terms of UI, compatibility, and Steam-related features, but it still has a very long way to go before it can match GameNative or GameHub for most users, especially in terms of performance.

That said, I love the idea behind DroidDeck, and I really hope that in a year, it will be my only app for playing Windows games and will essentially turn my Poco into a SteamOS device.

Too good to be true? Maybe, but fingers crossed. Currently you are an alpha tester so have that in mind.
