That's right! We fixed the Steam Deck and Prologue issues we introduced with the latest update (sorry about that...)

A massive THANK YOU to everyone who let us know you were experiencing issues and provided extra info on just how they were effecting you. This really helped and allowed us to quickly identify and resolve the issues. For those wanting the specifics, here's the few notes for this hotfix:

Fixed an issue which prevented the game from loading correctly on Steam Deck
Fixed an issue where Steam Deck users were unable to use consumables
Fixed an issue which caused the Prologue (tutorial) to crash

These fixes combined should immediately improve the stability and overall experience of the game for you (because who'd have thought being able to complete the tutorial was a good thing...).

Again, the biggest thank you to all of our players and community for providing insight and being patient while we fix these issues. Being a small dev team, it's no surprise that we encounter these issues from time to time, but your support, especially in providing logs and information on bugs, sharing the game with your friends and leaving Steam reviews to help get the word out all means the world to us.

We've been trawling Steam reviews, responding and jumping in DMs with players to get extra info and resolve issues, but did you know we have an active Discord? Click the link below and join us over there where we can turn around feedback much faster than on Steam (most people refuse my friend invite as they think I'm a bot :( We even have a channel dedicated to Steam Deck chat! https://discord.gg/DkTTUVF5qs

We're ever grateful for every positive review we receive and can't explain how happy we are that you along for the ride with us. Thank you.
