ONE BTN BOSSES is now VERIFIED and fully playable on the Steam Deck, to celebrate it the game is 20% off!
Are you dreaming about beating bosses on the go? Dream no longer pilot for ONE BTN BOSSES should work tipy-topy without any configuration needed on the Steam Deck! Earn grind points on the train, plane or the toilet! Play with either the steam decks built in gamepad or with the touchscreen, whatever fits your on-the-go or in-the-bed situation better.
But if you don’t have any grind points yet and are eager to jump into THE OFFICE now that you can do that on the Steam Deck, look no further as I have 5 tips for you:

Keep moving fast, to shoot faster and stronger bullets!
Grinding a rank? Press R to restart quickly!
If you need more GP to unlock something, just jump into a quick ROGUELIKE run!
Try out different module combinations if you’re having issues with a boss!
And if even that doesn’t work, just skip it – there are always other levels you can do!
Don’t own a steam deck but still want to switch to playing on the go? We’re cooking up some versions of the game that will be playable on multiple different devices that you can take on the

We’re trying to see if it’s possible for us to get the game onto some other platforms right now. Until then this is a small patch addressing some quality of life problems and improving the experience on the deck.
Quality of Life

You should now be able to set the game into windowed (fullscreen) mode
You can now quick restart the game with R (Triangle/Y on controller)
Instead of seeing “Action Button” in the game’s text the icon of your bound button should now dynamically appear
Thanks for playing pilots!

1.0.1 - Tidying Up
Hello all, welcome to the first patch notes! We did some minor balancing and addressed the most drastic bugs. It’s likely some things you guys want are not addressed here, we are reading your feedback and understanding where it’s coming from. New QOL features, such as seeing high
Hello all, welcome to the first patch notes! We did some minor balancing and addressed the most drastic bugs. It’s likely some things you guys want are not addressed here, we are reading your feedback and understanding where it’s coming from. New QOL features, such as seeing highscores from within the level select screen, windowed mode or a quick restart button.
We’re taking a few weeks off from working on the game directly to let the initial steam sales settle before we commit to anything. However what we can commit to is a set of small competitions we will be hosting in the discord. Starting next week we will be hosting a string of competitions for 3 weeks straight and we’re excited to see you all completely break the game.
Due to balancing changes the highscores have been cleaned up! The 1.0.0 archive can be found here:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/e/2PACX-1vR_ISw4I7HZr3X8Di4i9HW1JLtO2LaiEZjJsOanzOdJGjYhCsR8xtw6lpjPdDGNAfYDo02B6_LQudlW/pubhtml
Quality of Life
Reverse now includes a visual, 0 - 100, indicator of how much of a charge you have completed
Module Balancing
All changes here are effective in both the campaign and rifts.
Laser
Damage at high spark levels has been reduced by about 10%
Dash
Fixed a bug where it would take a couple of frames for the immunity to trigger. It should now feel more responsive for those of you that did notice.
Rifts
Floor 4 and 5 fights, both HR and Elites, have had their difficulty slightly increased
Squares that travel the arena’s path should now appear in smaller numbers
The HP of shielding assistants that can appear as a level modifier has been decreased by 33%
Additionally, they each subsequently spawned assistant will appear slightly later
Floor bosses now get really angry if you fight them for an incomprehensibly high amount of time (they despise any attempts of pacifism)
It is no longer possible to lose HP on shops while at 1HP. You will only be offered common, free powerups instead.
Discoveries in Rifts
Laser
Effectiveness of All Or Nothing has been halved
Juggler
Several bugs related to Two Hands Only have been fixed which reduce jugglers potential maximum DPS
General
Fragments of Aidoxe are now slightly more common
Pacifist should be slightly rarer
Bug Fixes:
The levels around Star’s cluster should now be clickable on more resolutions, sorry click clique
Several typos have been fixed, we’re very soryr about that
It is no longer possible to skip the boss changing shape animation.
Rifts
(Shooter) 999 bullets text that incorrectly stated that the count resets when hit has been removed.
(Juggler) Fixed card interactions that made it so you can have more than 2 Primary Jugglers while playing with Two Hands Only
(Reload) It is now impossible to fire low charge bullets impossibly fast by spamming buttons on two different input devices.
(All modules) Attack Zone affecting discoveries should now behave correctly

We are back with another round of bug-fixes. Thank you for the reports!
In the small update 1.0.3, we are addressing some UI bugs. They shouldn't have had a big impact on you or the game, but better get them out of the way as soon as we can!
Bugfixes

Fixed a bug where changing music volume settings wouldn't persist from the main menu to the game.
Fixed a bug where leaving the pause menu in the overworld with the mouse didn't work and left a strange game state.
Fixed a bug where tabbing out of the game wouldn't show you your correct time in the overworld.
Fixed a bug where the game would let you scroll through the world with the mouse.
Remember that we currently have a time competition going on where the winners will get the chance to have their name featured in the game. And competition is fierce!
This is all! Enjoy the rest of the Next Fest!

Bugfixes

Fixed a bug where getting hit while restarting would cause the game to play at very slow motion (thanks Coachie and orgx!)
Fixed a bug where pressing the button multiple times in a row would cause the player sprite to scale infinitely.
This is all! Keep your times coming and keep your runs running, pilots!

A few minor changes that are coming in an update today:
General

The wording on the discovery cards should now be different, more consistent throught the whole set
Additionally there should be no grammar mistakes now :')
Perfomance:

The "danger" animation towards the end of fights should not cause performance issues anymore
Bug Fixes

Playing from a computer with a Chinese system language should not break the text in the game
In rare cases your rift save file could not be correctly reset after finishing a level. If this happens again a wishlist popup will appear and after clicking continue you will be able to continue playing normally. This is not the most elegant solution but allows us to quickly provide a fix for those affected
