no steam overlay in heroic games launcher

This could apply to all 3rd party games, but the only one I have are on gog; which has to launch through heroic.
Anyways the games will launch fine, but I can't use the steam overlay with them. Which is an issue for me, as I want to use my gamepad for old titles that generally have no controller support.
To be specific games like the wingcommander series. The controlls work just fine on my steam deck with the overlay. With out the voerlay on my desktop, I can't get my gamepad to work with these said games.
