Demo Update – Controller Support, Fixes & Polish

Sojourn Saga · published

Hey everyone, I noticed a few of you have been playing the demo on Steam Deck and with controllers. Controller support was always planned, but it wasn't ready yet. Seeing you all jump in anyway, I pushed it forward and spent the night getting it working properly

Controller & Steam Deck

  • Full controller support across menus and gameplay

  • You can check the button layout anytime in the Options menu

  • Rebinding isn’t in yet, but it’s on the list

  • Smoother menu handling, including select-all

Fixes

  • Optimise now works on the first press (no more double-tapping) with controllers.

  • Some tweaks to enemy movements.

  • Fixed some startup issues in the packaged build

Cutscene Polish

  • Reworked one of the cutscenes with new effects, better pacing and a proper ending. I won’t spoil it!

Existing demo saves carry over, so no need to restart. If you run into anything weird, especially on Deck or controller, drop it in the pinned Bug Reports thread. I read all of them. Thanks for playing and for your patience.
