Patch Roundup: A Livelier Floor and Smoother Play

major update

Casino Legends · published

Thank you for all the feedback since August 24. I have been reading your bug reports, comments and suggestions, and a lot of them are already reflected in the live build. Here is the short version of what changed.

The casino has more life

  • Free prize draws now return every hour of play, and every third draw has a much larger top prize.

  • Guests at your table now have their own bankrolls and their own evening. They win, lose and leave, while the casino floor gets busier and quieter as the night moves on.

  • A guest may stand up mid-hand and tell the table they are heading to the draw. If you try to leave during your first hour before seeing one, the game asks once if you want to stay for it.

  • The casino manager now reacts to the actual result of your first free spin.

Career progress keeps moving

  • Ambitions no longer run out. Completing one unlocks a larger target, and all twelve ambition families are now organized into tabs.

  • Five new career titles fill previously quiet stretches of the Road to Legend.

  • Legend levels now check both XP and the bankroll you are holding. This is only a threshold, not a fee, so it never spends your chips. If a level is waiting on your bankroll, the progress bar says so directly.

Fixes requested by players

  • Turning Dealer Voice off now keeps it off, even after changing the sound-effects volume.

  • Controller navigation and focus now behave properly in Profile and other menus.

  • Popups no longer block controls behind them, and the stake picker, Profile ledger and poker room list now fit shorter displays without hiding content.

  • Russian, Ukrainian, Bulgarian and Greek draw text now uses the correct native scripts. Your default seat label is localized too.

Smoother play and better hardware scaling

  • Reduced recurring hitches while walking the floor, opening tables and sitting at a table.

  • Steam Deck now uses the game's own pointer in Game Mode, avoiding the expensive system-pointer redraw path.

  • Unlimited frame rate can no longer flood the render queue, and the game can now recover automatically if the picture stalls.

  • 117 images now reach the graphics card in compressed form, reducing texture-memory demand by about 2.4 GB across the asset library. Any image that did not pass the visual comparison stayed uncompressed.

Help Casino Legends reach 10 reviews


If you have played Casino Legends, please consider leaving an honest Steam review, positive or critical. Reaching 10 reviews is an important first milestone because Steam starts showing an overall review score at that point. Once people can see what players think, they can decide more quickly, are more likely to click through and are more likely to give the game a chance. For a small independent game, that can make a real difference to sales.Please keep sending bugs, rough edges and ideas too. I read all of it, and your feedback directly shapes what I work on next. As long as there are concrete things to improve, patches will keep coming.Thank you for playing.
