Dusk compatibility by platform
Windows is the best target for 4K and high-refresh testing. Steam Deck is the best handheld target. iOS and Android need extra attention around storage access, signing, and thermals.
Dusk compatibility for texture packs
Texture replacements work best after a clean launch. On mobile, use smaller texture packs first. On desktop, 4K packs are more realistic.
Dusk compatibility for controllers
Modern controllers should work, but the Z/back action deserves early testing. Steam Input can help on Deck, but native mapping should be checked first.
