       @shapr do you want to distribute as a game on steam or part of steamos?

       @JoYo is one option much more difficult than the other?I'd like to distribute the alarm clock in steam if possible, but I don't care if it runs on windows or Mac.

       @shapr the acceptance process is the difference.publishing as a game requires a submission fee.publishing to steamos requires a merge into the steamos project.

       @JoYo I don't mind a submission fee.I think it'd be fun to make useful tools for the steam deck.I can't figure out if a "game" could wake the deck from sleep though.Any idea how I could find out?

       @shapr the game would have to be played by the user.I don't think they support daemons but I have launched games that can be minimized to the task bar on non steamos Linux.
