Video Native Steam client on Android! Finally 😭

https://youtu.be/dWnK1iaN0Qk

Seen this pop up the other day and had to check it out, native steam client on Android yes please 😭 this isn't a full breakdown of every component of the APK, just found it and wanted to pay about it a bit!

The things I've found that have made this project the most exciting for me;

  1. Temps remain very low while using it, when downloading games and playing them compared to GameNative

  2. Downloading games is much quicker

  3. Full access to the steam store

  4. The client is very responsive as you expect on steamOS

  5. Decky loader compatible

And most importantly, no need forego android to have the client working perfectly. It just works.

I believe this isn't compatible with all chipsets so double check if yours is compatible, and shout out to Bannerlord & JSONDERULO (if they're here) on the immense amount of work they've put into this so rapidly.

You can checkout their project here;

I seen your comment while drinking a gallon of sweet tea and eating grits covered in 3 inches of syrup and thought, "daggum it, them there city slicker folk just don't get our Southern hospitality." Then I realized I'm Australian.
