Hello everyone!

I've just listed the game as having full controller support on Steam! Konbini Cleanup should now auto-detect controller usage and allow you to swap back and forth between controller and keyboard. If there's anything that can be adjusted to improve the controller experience, please let me know!

Additionally, I've tested the game on Steam Deck and it's running pretty well. I'm going to try to get some optimisations in to further improve Steam Deck gameplay, but as it stands the game should now be 100% playable on Steam Deck. It's not yet Steam Deck Verified by Steam, but I have submitted it for review and it should be shortly.

An update on the launch crashes. For some people, launching the game with -vulkan as a launch option seems to be working to prevent the crashes. Give it a try and let me know!

To do this, right click on Konbini Cleanup in your Steam library, and click on Properties. A panel should appear, and if you are not already on it select the "General" tab from the left hand side bar. At the bottom, you will see "Launch Options" with an area that you can input text. Paste -vulkan into that, and then exit out and try to launch the game. If you currently have -dx11 in the launch options field, make sure you remove it and replace it with -vulkan.

If this still doesn't work for you, I apologise and I'm still working on a fix that works for everyone.

Lastly a few bugfixes/adjustments:

Added actual windows to the Sweet Store level (sorry if you fell out of the level)
Added a button to reset the player's position if you get yourself stuck, under the Game tab in the options menu
Fixed some freezers and frozen products that were incorrectly categorized in the Supermarket level
Fixed a bug where the completion timer could reset between saving and loading
Added text UI to let you know what item you are looking at
Updated the naming convention so numbers are now sequential with no missing numbers per map
Moved the autosave text to the top of the screen so it doesn't get annoying

Thanks again for all the feedback, and thanks for playing!

I've made a couple of changes to the way Konbini Cleanup launches, and hopefully that will help anyone who is crashing at launch to be able to actually play the game. When you launch the game, you should now see a box that asks you to choose between "Default" and "DX11 (Use If Crashing)". If you are crashing on launch every time, try the DX11 option, and let me know how it goes.

If you had this issue you should now have the correct amount of each, though potentially some of the chips will have had to be respawned off the shelf. Thanks!
