Megabonk is like half a gig, great on Deck, pretty addictive, and good for when you only have a short window to play something in.

Undertale, In Stars and Time, Blue Prince, and Doki Doki Literature Club are my favorite games that haven't already been mentioned here. All of them are somewhat dialogue/text-heavy.

Horsey Game. Like 150mbs and hilarious but also crazy deep genetics mechanics.
Ostriv was under a gig last I checked. Incredible accomplishment. Beautiful little city/village builder based in Ukraine.
Terraria is just north of 10 MB, and it's still (?!) only $10. That's $1 per megabyte!

Celeste, the platformer, is one of my favorites, and it's super small.
Abiotic factor
10gb, half life themed survival game. Extremely solid. The combat itself isn't too crazy, I think you could pull it off on steamdeck
Throw in a 1TB SD card and load it with ROMs. Install your emulators of choice.

Both Ori games are great on the deck and combined are around 20 GB.
I have Ori. I loved it until all you did was launch between points it just wasn't the platformer i want it to be.
Fair, I had problems with the same part.

Bubsy 4D is only like 3gb. It should do well on a Deck, too, but there were some reports of insanely bad performance for some people even on beefy rigs that should handle it no problem. It has a demo, tho.

I just started playing Elementallis. It's a Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past style action adventure. I'm enjoying it. It weighs in at just a hair over 1 GB.
Current rotation looks like
- Caves of Qud
- Space Warlord Organ Trading Sim
- Streets of Rogue
- Drova Forsaken Kin
All of them are sub 20GB, heck they might all even be sub 10 GB

Is rimworld on steamdeck? If it is the base game is a couple hundred mb, even with all the dlc it's less than 1gb.
With mods my rimworld install is 2gb. Brb gotta finish my killbox

I remembered I never finished Braid last week and played it - perfect on steam deck!
