I've still been on my Monster Hunter kick as well, playing through Rise's endgame with my friend. And Lethal Company with my friend group, we got a modded lobby for 6 or so players. It's been fun being scared together! However my interim games have been lots of indie games I'd be unlikely to play on PC, where the format fits better for the steam deck! I've been going through unsupported games since most tend to work.

Revita has been the core one, it's a nice rogue like with a blend of Hollow Knight style play and The Binding of Isaac rng runs with a killer soundtrack. Highly recommended!

Other than that...

Dark Futures, a part real time part strategy game that revolves in an apocalyptic Twisted Metal style setting. You are a car/caravan taking on missions, it's very unique and feels pretty 90's through and through.

The Ascent, which isn't really my kind of game but it's a topdown isometric 2.5d (I can never remember the right term for this one) in a cyberpunk setting. It was interesting, I didn't play much but I may go back to it which is more than I can say for most of that style.

And a small bout with the runner survive style games, Fotonica and Barrier X.

I also got my switch set back up so I briefly was playing Super Mario Maker 2 and F-Zero 99. The story mode for SMM2 was actually a pretty cool concept, and F-Zero 99 was alright. I also checked in on my villagers in Animal Crossing after over a year, they missed me and I had bedhead.
