changedValve have given Survivalist a Playable rating on Steam Deck!Evidently their testing team have been working through their massive back catalog and they've now reached Survivalist! The Playable rating means it works fine but there are a few issues such as keyboard button prompts being shown in places, which prevent it from having a green tick. I'm going to be looking at those and resubmitting it in the near future to try and get the full green tick, but in the meantime, it's nice to be offically recognized in some form ;)
addedSurvivalist: Invisible Strain has left Early Access, and launched on XBox Series!Well actually that happened exactly one month ago yesterday, but with everything going on around launch I forgot to post about it on here, the news page of the game that started it all! Oops. In case you weren't aware, Survivalist: Invisible Strain is the sequel to Survivalist and it has much better graphics (imho) and a ton of new features :)
changedAnd finally, it's the Steam Zombies vs Vampires Fest this week!Big discount on Survivalist! Get it now if you haven't already, and then get the bundle with Survivalist: Invisible Strain!
