Steam Achievements

Six Steam achievements have been added. They reward progression through the demo, defeating enemies and bosses, discovering equipment, opening chests, and completing important objectives.

Controller Improvements

  • Added subtle controller vibration for charged attack impacts, Crystal explosions, and Arcane Void explosions.

  • Fixed an issue where some gaming mice and other HID devices could be incorrectly detected as controllers.

  • Fixed a bug that could cause the character to move automatically when the game started.

  • Improved detection of the controller currently being used.

New Start Screen

A new “Press Any Button” screen now appears before the main menu. Your first input determines whether the game uses keyboard and mouse or controller navigation.

The screen also features a new atmospheric background inspired by the abandoned halls of the Dark Monastery.

Additional Fixes

  • Improved stability of controller navigation.

  • Fixed several input-related edge cases.

  • Added protection against controller vibration continuing after disconnecting or minimizing the game.

  • Various small bug fixes and internal improvements.

Thank you to everyone who played the demo and shared feedback. Your reports have already helped make Dark Monastery better!
