When I try to play CrossCode on SteamDeck it doesn't recognize the controller and if I click anywhere with a mouse the game crashes :,(

Not sure about the crashing when you click, but CrossCode not recognizing the controller may be due to the native Linux build having controller issues. Try switching from the Linux build to a Windows + Proton build.

I followed this Steam Thread and it recognised controller inputs. You have to replace the engine in the files

Odd, I can play the Steam version fine in Big Picture, the linked thread in the other reply says workaround is not required since Apr 2022; and the itch version should work more or less the same.
