We’re proud to present ready [Steam integration](https://castle-engine.io/steam) in _Castle Game Engine_!
Features:
- Use Steam API to
- Control achievements (list, get, set state).
- Get some information (country, language, VR mode, Steam Deck, whether some DLC is installed).
- Works on all supported platforms: Windows, Linux, macOS.
- Works with all supported compilers: FPC, Delphi.
- Ready Pascal unit `CastleSteam`.
- Ready example in the engine sources: [examples/steam](https://github.com/castle-engine/castle-engine/tree/master/examples/steam).
- We have put deliberate effort into solving some technical things in a clean way: the integration doesn’t need any “wrapper” Steam library (you only need Steam DLL/SO from Valve, not anything additional), the integration code is clean and cross-platform (in particular, we use `SteamAPI_ManualDispatch_GetNextCallback` and friends – no assembler, no hacks to simulate C++ VMT in order to receive callbacks). This implies that our integration should “just work” on any platform supported by Steam, forever, reliably.
- We have further plans related to this. The most immediate: release _Castle Game Engine_ on Steam! We are finishing setting up our Steam page. Next: add more features from Steam API, like support joysticks using Steam (allows to handle any joystick type, and user can customize the handling in Steam) and Steam Deck-specific API (e.g. activate on-screen keyboard on Steam Deck).
Everything is documented on our [Steam documentation page](https://castle-engine.io/steam). It has also been mentioned on slides in 2 recent [conferences](https://castle-engine.io/conferences) — see [Cologne FPC/Lazarus Meeting 2024 slides](https://castle-engine.io/cologne2024), [Delphi Programmer’s Meeting (Polish) 2024 slides](https://castle-engine.io/zlot2024).
_This big work has been largely done by the late Eugene Loza._
