Can I Run Starcom: Nexus?
Starcom: Nexus is an action adventure game from Wx3 Labs, LLC, released in 2019. Wx3 Labs, LLC both developed and published it. The game supports a single player campaign. Saves sync through Steam Cloud, so moving between machines does not cost progress. It is not Windows only, with Linux covered too. A pad covers most of the game, though parts of it still expect a keyboard. It carries 24 achievements. With more than 2 thousand player reviews on Steam, its behaviour on real hardware is well documented. Being 7 years old, it was built for the hardware of its day, so a current machine usually has headroom over the published figures.
