Junk Store Tested - September 23, 2025
This week’s testing highlights: 12 games across Epic, GOG, Amazon, itch.io storefronts — including standout finds like Bloons TD 6 running flawlessly and Cursed to Golf running flawlessly. 11 games work perfectly out of the box!
G’day Everyone!
This week was spent refining the website and fixing bugs uncovered through testing and community feedback. While testing Samorost 2, I hit an elusive bug that also affects Guild of Dungeoneering — sometimes these games work, sometimes they don’t. We think we’ve narrowed it down though!
If you get an error about missing files in Junk Store 2.0, apply this fix: toggle off “Set Steam Compatibility Library Paths” at Game screen > Cog > Proton > Set Steam Compatibility Library Paths. If you get this error in the Decky version, there’s no fix yet, but saying that, sometimes it does work… we’re still trying to figure out why.
We also fixed GOG DLC downloads, Umu ID updates, and flatpak improvements.
⚡ IMPORTANT UPDATE REMINDER ⚡ Junk Store 2.0 users: Make sure your channels are set to Stable and run Check for Updates to get the latest Epic extension and GOG improvements!
I got completely sucked into FATE: The Cursed King this weekend — my “testing” session turned into hours of actual gameplay! It’s definitely going back on my personal play list, along with Samorost 2 which I didn’t get enough time with.
