Hi everyone!
Controller Support in Widgets:
I'm thrilled to announce that the game is finally compatible with controllers, in addition to keyboard and mouse!
Xbox, Generic, PS4 & PS5 (still some WIP for Plasytation controllers) gamepads
The adaptation was complex, but it's finally about to be done!
Using Common UI (Epic Games)
You can now navigate widgets with your preferred controller.
The button icons display correctly depending on the controller used.
The in-game key bindings have also been improved.
UI Overhaul
The addition of controller support provided an opportunity to refine the user interface and give it a more professional look. I tried to offer a less "original" but more consistent and common style to provide a familiar user experience.
Lip synch:
The characters now benefit from real-time lip-sync! Thanks to the excellent Metahuman Lip Sync plugin and the invaluable help of the developer:
Lip-sync is calculated in real time, allowing for precise and modular animations. Creating each animation individually for each line of dialogue, as I did previously, was impossible to maintain for the entire game.
Therefore, any new dialogue audio file will be automatically integrated into the system, and lip-syncing will be possible.
Demo playtests and news:
The playtests are ongoing already provided awesome feedback, allowing me to make numerous improvements.
The demo was lengthened because most players felt it ended too soon (approximately 40 minutes instead of 20 minutes, not counting free exploration).
Support of DLSS Ray Reconstruction
New amazing voice actors have participated in the dubbing!
I'll try to release the demo publicly in May; that should be fine, but I prefer not to rush things.

THANK YOU SO MUCH EVERYONE FOR YOUR SUPPORT! ːsteamhappyː
