Recently I’ve been looking for creating a portable gamedev station, because I refuse to buy a (another) laptop for game-jams and out-of-home development. I need something able to run Unity/Godot, Krita and sometimes Blender. I already own a Steam Deck, and I thought it could be the solution. Installing this Huion tablet was kinda problematic since drivers are not made for Arch Linux based distros, but OpenTabletDriver via Flatpak made the day. Also Krita works quite nice!

Deck also serves as second screen to hold a mandatory htop and evaluate the performance.

Disclaimer: draw made by my girlfriend, I’m not that good yet. You can find her at ypsilenna.art.
