Want to get Minecraft working simply on Steam Deck or a standard Linux desktop without much fuss? This is a technique you would do it and it makes it easy. For this I picked the PolyMC launcher (a fork of MultiMC) out there on Flathub, as the present official Minecraft launcher Flatpak would not save your password on Steam Deck and PolyMC after all offers with modding too.

Some YouTube comments suggested trying out some optimized modpacks, however really I did not see a giant sufficient distinction when it comes to performance or energy use to make them actually value it on Deck in contrast with vanilla Minecraft when testing on the same map seed. Controller mods were additionally advised, however they're hardly ever updated and often solely work with particular Minecraft variations so sticking with Steam Enter and simply adjusting just a few keys is your best option for that.
