Terraria is just north of 10 MB, and it's still (?!) only $10. That's $1 per megabyte!

Are you sure? Steam says it will need 800mb for me, and thats on Linux so probably with Proton. I'm seeing 200mb searching online for an average install?
While it's certainly a pixel graphic game, it does have a lot of sprites and I can't see how it'd be 10mb? Still, 200mb is nothing in this day and age.
I got the 10 MB figure from the game properties screen on Steam. Perhaps that's just world and player files, or whatever's synced with the cloud. Anyway, it's a very small footprint for a very nice game.
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.

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.

I remembered I never finished Braid last week and played it - perfect on steam deck!
I’ll check my pc when I’m at home, Valheim is crazy small like 1 or 2 gigs I think cult of the lamb and dead cells are under 20
I’ll add more when I’m actually looking at my library

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

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.
It's surprising what the deck can handle
