The Steam Deck has been available for a few days for first time buyers and Valve couldn’t resist marking the occasion with an all-new game harnessing its power, Aperture Desk Job. Nothing compares to Half Life Where Half Life: Alyxbecause we are dealing with a short and free walking simulatormaking us follow the first steps of a rookie fromAperture Science. The idea is to familiarize ourselves with the commands and possibilities of the portable console in a fun way, without ambition either to deliver a Portal 3.
And since the Steam Deck uses the PC catalog of Steam, Aperture Desk Job is of course also available on classic personal computers, even if its playability was not designed for keyboards.
Aperture Desk Job reinvents the well-worn genre of walking simulators and anchors its action in this electrifying world full of endorphins where you sit behind a desk and do not move.
You play as an insignificant new recruit on his first day on the job, with a heart filled with hope and legs dreaming of climbing the professional ladder. But life decided otherwise, so it’s better to sit down.
Designed as a free short game for Valve’s new Steam Deck, Desk Job walks you through using the controller’s commands and features, and contrary to appearances, it’s far from boring.
It’s not Portal 3!
Calm down: this is not a sequel to Portal. But get ready to find the same game universe, and discover new facets! Desk Job puts you directly behind the wheel at Aperture Science. Then the steering wheel flies away very quickly, and here you are enthroned behind a desk.
Steam Deck: a desk for your hands
Until now, real life has mostly been spent sitting down, and video games have been the virtual fantasy world you can escape to. With our portable Steam Deck, we reverse all that and free the bodies! Run a marathon or jump out of a plane as your brain and hands resume the sitting activities of your daily routine.
It’s FREE (free)!
Put away your wallet, video game fan! Your money is worth nothing here. For this particular product. On the other hand, if your money no longer serves its purpose when you try to do your shopping, you should contact your bank immediately. What if the cashier had stolen your identity? You better go talk to her again because what do you mean, she’s never worked here?! You will have to take on the role of hacker and infiltrate the Dark Web to track her down! To finally find out that it was an alter ego from an alternate time reality?!! from the future?!?! And if anyone in Hollywood is reading this, pull out your wallet, because this awesome idea isn’t free (but on sale by contacting us via [email protected]).
Nothing fancy on the bottom, but Aperture Desk Job could join the pantheon of free technical demos that have marked the history of some players.
