ofc battery drains if not connected to the electricity network man, these graphics card are not meant to run games if not when they are charging
Anyway you can try SuperTux and Xonotic
Cave Story is good / hectic / hard platformer. I might be wrong but I think it was made for Linux first
Also, if you install RetroArch, you can play all the emulated systems.
Most indie games that are deck verified should work just fine. I'm playing DREDGE on my deck at the moment - absolutely recommend this one and the battery life is phenomenal. Apart from that Factorio or FTL will keep you busy for days (and nights...)
Bloons TD6 is pretty fun and light.
Not sure if it’s your cup, but A Short Hike is a very relaxing and wholesome game
Oh! I think I got that game in a bundle a while back actually. I will look into it!
Might be interested in Endless Sky? It's a 2d spaceship simulator/RPG. I haven't played it in a while but I only started encountering performance issues when my fleet was 40+ ships large and at that point I kinda get it
If you like text-based adventure games, check out ifdb.org for a massive store of free and abandoned text-based games. You can play in-browser or on any OS with a native client, Linux and Android included
I recently played through every Deus Ex game on linux, first 2 are oibviously low end, and maybe Human Revolution , it came out in 2011. the original and Human revolution are pretty good if you like rpgs, Invisible war the second game is alright but pretty light on some elements that make those two great, cause it was made i think with thje original xbox in mind instead of pc.
Does Human Revolution require stealth? I don't like stealth.
Depends, i dont think theres any missions where not using stealth fails the mission. You usually get a choice, but not using stealth can have story consequences in some cases, theres nothing really that makes it feel like it super matters cause the endings you get i believe end up being the same regardless ( all ill say to avoid spoilers) , but not using stealth can have consequences in your interactions with story characters, and the other interactions not related to the main story.
However you are free to blast your way through enemies if you so desire, as i recall. It does however make things more difficult in a few missions.
Neither RPGs nor choose your own adventure games, but I'll leave Celeste, Hollow Knight, and Cuphead here anyway

the EV games combine asteroids style flight with choose your own adventure text walls. I recommend Nova. You'll need to run it in WINE.
How well do these run in wine now? When I last tried (a good few years ago), I remember bugs that stopped me doing a full play through, although I don't remember what they were. I'll give it another shot if things are better now.
On the back of the EV recommendation, I'd add Endless Sky. Very heavily inspired by the EV line, although the feel of combat is a little different. Open source and under development, and should run on most hardware.

Nuclear Throne. It's a fun Roguelike dungeon crawler. A run from beginning to "end" (last level before looping) can take 15min and I've spent 100s of hours playing over the years.There' are so many characters you can choose to play, each with its own unique special ability.
