How I installed the Linux version of angband from the aur repository on to my steam deck.
And it worked, it downloaded and installed angband however with a font glitch that can be resolved with a command I found from ( https://github.com/angband/angband/issues/4575 )

Help with pausing while traveling
Link to Angband running code, which has some of the features you're describing. It's a big chunk of C, but about halfway down there's a comment with a bunch of description which might be useful.

People To Make Games With: A Free Resource
There is a way to get many people contributing and collaborating to a single project over extended periods, even as individual people come and go. That way is called free and open-source software. See e.g. Dungeon Crawl: Stone Soup, Brogue: Community Edition, Angband, Cataclysm: DDA.

SdLPoP control issues
SDLPoP is an open source port of the original Prince of Persia using the sdl library. Yes, I've also gathered that it's a standalone application that doesn't run through RetroArch. The documentation for the particular Retropie port of it is a bit sparse, but from what I've been able to gather apparently if one has control issues they should use that gamecontrollerdb.txt file and configure it correctly, but it's just that I couldn't get it to work. Whether I'm doing something wrong or there's something wrong with the port itself given the hardware, I don't know, that's why I'm asking for help here. For reference, here's some of the information I've already gone through : https://github.com/NagyD/SDLPoP

Prince of Persia - great cinematic platformer, and probably first game I ever played. My oldest gaming memory is main character dying on spikes.
There's a source port to run the game on modern systems: https://github.com/NagyD/SDLPoP

Prince of Persia JavaScript
This is great and I also enjoy https://github.com/NagyD/SDLPoP where my favourite feature is the ability to take a screenshot of the whole level... which usually fits well within my 4K display.
Oh, and playing at 3840x1200 means that every original 320x200 pixel is ... 144 pixels!
