Warhammer 40k Boltgun is super fun, though some people think it gets boring after the first few missions.

There's also Turbo Overkill, which definitely scratches that itch.

There's also Ultrakill, but I personally wasn't too into that as someone who sometimes just wants to shoot shit on his deck. (it felt a bit too puzzly for my tastes, not a bad game just not what I was looking for)

Edit: Boltgun required some media file conversions to prevent cutscenes from breaking on the deck. If you end up getting it, let me know and I'll link to the steam community post that outlines the fixes you'll need to make. Otherwise, though, a great game.

Steamdeck is really perfect for Boomer Shooters isn't it? Have you tried Warstride?

The touchpads are the best way to play once you get used to them and gyro aiming. That's the beauty of the Deck, it has many input options.
