v0.6.5 - Update Notes

Steam Deck owners now get a properly native experience. Controls, button labels, and UI defaults have all been tuned for handheld play. The early game has also been polished to give new players a smoother on-ramp, with a few quality-of-life improvements rounding things out. This patch ships on the demo build, ahead of the full game launch.

Steam Deck Native Support and Optimizations

• D-Pad and thumbstick issues are now solved. No more configuration workaround needed.
• UI Scale defaults to Large for better handheld readability.
• Removed the full screen toggle, which served no purpose on handhelds.
• Proper action button labels (A, B, X, Y) to match the Steam Deck.
• If you previously worked around issues by changing settings, you can safely revert to default launch and controller settings now.

New Player Experience

• Smoother flow from launching the game into your first match.
• Softer opening levels so new players can find their footing.
• Balanced early game food spawning.

User Interface

• Improved menu help texts for better clarity around game modes.

New Features

• Screenshots taken with the in-game screenshot button now save directly to your Steam screenshot library. Available on Windows, macOS, Linux, and Steam Deck.

Fixes

• General bug fixes and stability improvements.
• Minor story adjustments.
