Junk Store

Well, that's the 160 day streak done. A Steam Beta Client update broke Junk Store Pro. Seeing "Action 'NULL' not found in ActionSet 'NULL'"? That's the one. Fix is out on all three channels, just update. junkstore.xyz/blog/160-day-s… #JunkStore #SteamDeck

All four of this week's giveaways tested on the Steam Deck. Clash: Artifacts of Chaos stole the week, and Havendock had me missing home. junkstore.xyz/blog/games-tes… #JunkStore #SteamDeck #NonSteamGames

I used to write down Steam IDs one at a time to clear out all that unidentified Non-Steam storage. It was painful and could take hours. Thankfully the file manager in Junk Store Pro now makes quick work of it! junkstore.xyz/blog/non-steam… #JunkStorePro #SteamDeck #NonSteamGames

Three free games tested on the Steam Deck this week, and Spray Paint Simulator got me. Sat down for a quick look, lost an hour to masking tape and paint without noticing. junkstore.xyz/blog/games-tes… #JunkStore #SteamDeck #NonSteamGames

Four free games tested on the Steam Deck this week, and Steelrising was the surprise. I'd gone right off gaming lately and it pulled me back in within minutes. junkstore.xyz/blog/games-tes… #JunkStore #SteamDeck #NonSteamGames

Phew. The Junk Store Pro user manual is written. Fair warning, there is a lot packed into it, and I mean a lot. People keep calling it a plugin. Have a read and see if that still fits. junkstore.xyz/docs/user/ #JunkStore #SteamDeck #NonSteamGames

Hit a NIL path error on one of this weekend's games. Came down to the install path not getting set, and Junk Store Pro had what I needed to sort it from Game Mode. junkstore.xyz/tutorials/nil-… #JunkStore #SteamDeck #NonSteamGames

All four giveaways tested on the Deck this week. One of them flat out refused to launch, which turned into a tutorial instead of a write off. The other three, no problem. Download, launch, and play that simple. junkstore.xyz/blog/games-tes… #SteamDeck #JunkStore #HandheldGaming

Four giveaways tested with Junk Store. One of them got 20 minutes out of me before I did anything useful, and another flattened me at the first gun fight. Downloaded, launched, played, no desktop mode. junkstore.xyz/blog/games-tes… #SteamDeck #FreeGames #PrimeGaming #JunkStore

You've been able to build your own Junk Store extension since v2. Working out how was the hard part. Eben has finally written the lot down. junkstore.xyz/blog/extension… #JunkStore #SteamDeck #NonSteamGames

There's a fair bit tucked away in Junk Store Pro that is easy to miss. Hold SELECT on any screen and it tells you what each button opens: Settings, File Operations, File Browser, Diagnostics. junkstore.xyz/blog/pro-quick… #JunkStorePro #SteamDeck #NonSteamGames

Three giveaways tested on the Deck with Junk Store: Foretales, In Sound Mind and Mystic Academy: Escape Room. Foretales ate my entire morning yesterday, I knew it would. No desktop mode needed. junkstore.xyz/blog/games-tes… #SteamDeck #FreeGames #PrimeGaming #EpicGmes #Goggames

A year ago we shipped Junk Store Pro. Since then we've cut loose from Decky Loader and rebuilt it from the ground up, it's all our own code now. 113 days in with nothing broken. Bring on year 2! junkstore.xyz/blog/one-year-… #JunkStore #SteamDeck #HandheldGaming #SoloDev #IndieDev

Earlier this week I showed you the new game pages but said there was too much to cover in one go. Here's the proper tour: every section explained, from our test results at the top to related games at the bottom. junkstore.xyz/blog/game-page… #JunkStore #SteamDeck #NonSteamGames

Three tested on the Deck this week: Echo Generation: Midnight Edition, Escape Academy and Luto. Echo Generation had its hooks in me for nearly two hours. All worked out of the box no need to dip into desktop mode! junkstore.xyz/blog/games-tes… #JunkStore #SteamDeck #NonSteamGames

The games tested table just got a big glow-up! Every game we've tested now has its own full page, over 1,000 of them across Epic, GOG, Amazon and itch. Go have a poke around! junkstore.xyz/blog/new-game-… #JunkStore #SteamDeck #NonSteamGames

All four of last week's giveaways tested on the Steam Deck with Junk Store. Regular Factory: Escape Room stole the week, and Tattoo Tycoon confirmed my free-hand drawing hasn't improved one bit. junkstore.xyz/blog/games-tes… #JunkStore #SteamDeck #NonSteamGames

All six of this week's giveaways tested on the Steam Deck with Junk Store. Symphony of War hooked me for way longer than I planned, and CyClones brought the 90s retro Doom feels. junkstore.xyz/blog/games-tes… #JunkStore #SteamDeck #NonSteamGames

This week's tip: got a game installed on another device? Junk Store Pro can copy it across your local network, no re-downloading. Gold if your internet is slow or capped. No desktop mode! junkstore.xyz/blog/network-g… #JunkStore #SteamDeck #NonSteamGames #NonSteamGames

Had a dig through our own itch backlog this round, 12 itch games tested on the Steam Deck with Junk Store Pro and all up and running. Batbarian, Antecrypt & Beglitched were the standouts for me. junkstore.xyz/blog/backlog-t… #JunkStore #SteamDeck #NonSteamGames #itchgames
