Hello everyone!
We’ve just updated the demo for Order Automatica with a bunch of improvements, polish, and one highly requested feature - full controller support! 🎮
This update focuses mainly on making the game feel smoother, more responsive, and more alive during battles.
You can now play the entire demo using a controller.
Menus, combat preparation, navigation, and gameplay systems were updated to work properly with gamepads.
And yes — the game now works great on Steam Deck as well 👀
We’re still polishing some smaller UX details, so feel free to share your feedback after trying it out!
Our ritual participants finally started moving 👀
We added new unit animations to make battles feel more dynamic and readable. It’s a relatively small change on paper, but honestly, it changes the atmosphere of combat quite a lot.
We also introduced a number of smaller gameplay and quality-of-life improvements across the demo, including balancing adjustments, interface polish, and overall gameplay flow updates.
As always, thank you for all the feedback, screenshots, bug reports, and wishlist support.
Seeing people compare the game to “chess with demons” still makes our day.
If you enjoy the demo, don’t forget to leave feedback and wishlist the game - it genuinely helps us a lot ❤️
