First time trying to walk through installation of ReversePuck. I have added the ReversePuck script as a non-Steam Game and then tried running it in Steam in Desktop Mode. It successfully brings up a gray-on-black screen, with text saying it cannot find a paired ReversePuck dongle.

But there's no clear way to exit this program.

If using Steam in Desktop Mode on the Steam Deck, once you launch ReversePuck there's no touchscreen points or exit instructions on the ReversePuck screen. The STEAM button brings up information about the game but none of the Deck's gamepad inputs are able to navigate that interface. Touching parts of the Steam overlayed interface show highlights, but do not perform any actions. (If using Steam in Game Mode, you can press the STEAM button and choose to Exit successfully.)

Please add a touchable exit button to the ReversePuck screen, or an on-screen instruction to explain how to press the right Deck inputs to exit the ReversePuck program.
