Seems really cool. I haven't gotten to test it out yet, so I'm not sure how well steam game licenses work with it yet

Steam has joy-con support built in! Depending on the game you want to play, you might be able to get away with two half-controllers.

interesting, wonder if this works better than local mp mods, would it be like lan except it runs two game sessions of your computer

This looks really cool! It's a shame I'll have to add 2 wireless controllers to the list of things I carry around with my deck though...

I was looking for such a thing for my ChimeraOS machine. I like the dev's honesty about his skills and will maybe do some bug reporting !

Valve needs to employ this man and get him to develop this idea further. It would be such a standout Linux feature that would draw people onto the platform.
