Repeated intro
Hey there!
What changed
- Compatibility
- Gameplay
- UI and audio
- Fixes
Today we’re adding support for controllers, Steam Deck and Linux!
Changes
-Added controller support.
-Added Steam Deck support. While the game already technically worked on Steam Deck the controls weren’t great, this has now been greatly improved!
-Freeze on Hover is now automatically toggled on for first time Steam Deck users, this makes it easier to pick up wormies.
-Added Linux support. Same as above, the game technically already ran on Linux but some functionality like Steam achievements weren’t functioning yet.
-Added a new controls page in the settings menu.
-Breeding plain wormies with certain special recolorable wormies will now always result in the child becoming a special wormie instead of a plain wormie.
-Added a sound effect to changing wormie list pages on the sell box screen.
Bug Fixes
-Hopefully fixed the issue where webshop messages could appear empty.
-Fixed resolution settings scrolling very slowly.
-Can no longer open the computer while the game is paused.
-Can no longer move between crates while the game is paused or the computer is open.
