1) moving the shuttle bay decompression chamber checkpoint further away from the door to fix spawning location issues.
2) reducing a large amount of unused files form the installation pack which has reduced the install size by nearly a gig!Note - some players have reported an issue with the ACTIVATE and JUMP buttons being both mapped to E. This can be fixed by resetting mapping to defaults. If you are using a game controller, you also may find turning off Steam Controller input settings in Big Screen helpful.
Enjoy!

Original postThis patch completes the Non-Steam Gamepad controller support so that the inventory and menu systems also work with the xbox and pc game controllers for those who are not using the default Steam Input controller mapping configuration.
For Steam users you will need to FORCE OFF your automatic assigned Steam Input configuration mapping. These work very well actually, and we have recently uploaded a specific "official XBOX configuration" for PC Users, however some may not be running the game via Steam, and this provides a fully configurable alternative.
I'm very keen on having anyone provide feedback on how this is working, and if there are any situations where the controller doesn't cover all game functionality. I have a feeling there are some - but need help finding them.
Thanks for your help!

Original postAfter months of work, the parallel story to Discrepant, called Sue's Story, will be available from 3rd August. Released free to enjoy!
The game picks up whether the tutorial ended in Discrepant, with Sue awakening in a Cryo transport ship, and ultimately collapsing on her way to escape to the shuttle. The tutorial was a hint of the rest of the story, but actually Discrepant starts in New Haven.
In New Haven, Sebastian interacts with Sue on multiple occasions in Discrepant, but we never fully find out what happened to Sue before Discrepant, and how she came to be where and what she is. Sue's Story aims to fill in a big part of that part of the story. It is set exclusively in Space, and takes you on her journey through various ships, solving puzzles and trying to get in control of her own personal turmoil before reaching out to Sebastian.
No knowledge of Discrepant is required, you can just enjoy it for what it is, a playful adventure strongly tied to the likes to the Alien genre.
