Cursed Companions Early Access is officially live! 🥳Thank you to everyone who followed us, wishlisted, played the demo, and supported us along the way. This release means a lot to our tiny team, and we cannot wait for you to experience it, we've added so much more content since the demo and we will add much more in the months to come.❤️
Your feedback has shaped so much of the game. We read your comments, your ideas, watched you play and we kept refining and fine-tuning the mechanics, and fixing bugs (as many as we could) to ensure you have a smooth experience from start to finish.
We enjoyed making this game and even after months of testing and playing, we still find it fun, and we still laugh out loud. Sometimes we end up in tears cos the situations were utterly hilarious. We love making this game and we have so many ideas and concepts we'd love to try as the voice-control mechanics of the game has so much potential!

Language support
The early access version of this game currently support English. We wanted to do more but we realized when making the spells, it isn't so simple to translate them to another language. The spells had to be funny. There were hours spent refining them, making sure they're easy to say when you're panicking, making sure that they can work with most accents.
That said, we've included a basic set for non-English speakers to start with. Please note that they are in early stages of development, with Chinese, French, Spanish and German in a little better state then the rest. We're hoping for the community to help and you can join our Discord to make new spells. We've designed it so that the spells can easily be modded by anyone. More on this later on.
Here's a list of languages the Beta version of the EA can support:
Spanish / German / Chinese / French / Brazilian-Portuguese / Russian / Japanese / Polish / Turkish / Italian / Dutch / Korean
To access the beta multi-language version of the game: Steam > Cursed Companions > Settings > Betas > Language-Beta
If you'd like us to add your language, let us know on our Discord. Thanks.
Known Issues
We're still working on these:
- Mid-game drop-in / drop-outs may cause desync issues (I.e. If you join a game after the portal has opened)
- Stuck monsters in tight spaces or if their paths meet and get stuck
- Some monsters don't retarget well
- Lag issues with Summoning Staff
- Other balancing issue, minor bugs and QOL improvements
We are watching your streams and gameplay to see where to make minor adjustments. Keep your clips coming. You can also post them on our Discord.
