fixedPolished!Over the past month, we’ve been focused on polishing things up. We fixed a bunch of bugs, added ultra-wide screen support, and sorted out issues with certain controller models not working properly. We also made several optimization improvements to boost performance across the board.

addedGreat news for Steam Deck users!In fact, we pushed things far enough to pass the Steam Deck Compatibility Review — which means Hank: Drowning On Dry Land is now officially Steam Deck Verified! To get through the process, I picked up a used Steam Deck myself, and it turned out to be a great piece of hardware. It gave me a chance to revisit our earlier games — Hank: Straightjacket , Tales From The Arcade: Starship Murder , and Tales From The Arcade: Fartmania — and add some extra quality-of-life improvements with handheld play in mind.

Something ends, something begins

With all that done, we’re starting to wrap up our work on Hank: Drowning On Dry Land. But as one journey ends, another begins 🙂 We’ve already started working on the next adventure of our favorite drunk vigilante — and we hope you’ll join us for that ride too.

Cya Around,
