Steam Deck compatibility: 100% (albeit not Valve-verified yet)!

Since Valve hasn't reviewed ExploJudo yet, I'll happily report that the game is 100% Steam Deck and Ubuntu compatible out of the box, exactly like Schwarzerblitz. There are no known Steam Deck/Linux bugs except a shader issue that has happened to a very limited number of players and whose solution is detailed here: So, get ready to explode people on Steam Deck too and let me know how it goes!!!

An extra arcade mode (longer and without Chaingear) + minor balance changes

This patch includes some minor balance changes and introduces a new, optional arcade mode: Gauntlet.

Gauntlet counts as a classic Arcade mode for the sake of unlocks (and for some achievements too) and also gives access to the game's arcad…

After gathering some feedback (and, again, needing to fix some minor bugs), I adjusted the UX of the chaingear fight a little to make it clearer how the boss works. It was never my intention to obfuscate information, but turns out the iconography I've used to convey the message was everything except clear for some players.
