Gordian Quest now Compatible with Steam Deck!

Hello, Heroes!
We've got some exciting news to share with you today! First up, for all you strategy and adventure enthusiasts, Gordian Quest is currently on sale at 30% off during the Steam Strategy Sale. If you have friends who've been waiting for the right moment to jump into our world, now's their chance!
That's not all! We're thrilled to announce that Gordian Quest is now officially playable on the Steam Deck.
Watch on YouTube
But here's a little secret - we've been sneaking in controller support in our recent game patches. Some of our eagle-eyed players noticed and have been instrumental in testing and providing invaluable feedback. To those heroes, we say: Thank you!
Challenges in our Journey
Adapting a game primarily designed for keyboard and mouse to the Steam Deck was no small feat. The main hurdle? Completely rethinking our controls and UI flow. Ensuring that the game felt intuitive and fluid with a controller was paramount, but we also encountered other technical challenges:

Button Mapping: Making sure each action, from navigating the menu to selecting a card, felt natural on a controller.
Visual Feedback: Optimizing the graphics for a smaller screen
Performance Optimization: Tweaking the game's performance to ensure it runs smoothly on the Steam Deck's hardware.
Yet, each challenge was a learning curve and that's also part of what makes game development such an adventure. We're truly grateful for your continued support, patience, and feedback during this process. It has paved the way for us to explore bringing Gordian Quest to more consoles like the Switch or PS5 in the future, reaching out to even more fans of the genre.
If you're a Steam Deck user, we hope you could try Gordian Quest on your handheld and let us know how it runs!
As always, thank you for being part of our journey. Here's to more strategic adventures and epic quests!
If you're not familiar with Gordian Quest yet, here's a quick summary.
Gordian Quest is an epic deckbuilding RPG, using modern gaming concepts like roguelite elements and turn-based strategic combat. You will form parties of heroes whom you will have to lead and manage on grueling missions.
Explore 4 different Acts in Campaign Mode to go through the story and defeat evil... Or take on the randomly generated Realm Mode to test your mettle and strength with the cards you are dealt.
If you enjoy deckbuilding and strategizing, then Gordian Quest might just be right up your alley :)
We'd love to hear from you! Reach out to us on Reddit, Discord or the Steam Forums.

Hey Heroes!
We'd like to thank everyone for their support, love and feedback. We are determined to continue adjusting and improving the Gordian Quest experience for everybody, so we have rolled out a new 1.3 Patch!
Patch 1.3 consists of mostly technical adjustments, but most importantly, Realm Mode's new Boss has been let loose from his cage. The Alpha Werewolf's bite is now stronger than his bark.
The Alpha Werewolf
A few moons ago, we asked the community what kind of boss they'd like to see in Gordian Quest. Over those few months, he was in training, and now he's ready for a face off.
Skills
The Alpha Werewolf has various AOE abilities and single target skills. They often focus on bleed stacks, keeping Heroes on their toes about health.
We have given the Alpha Werewolf a bunch of underlings, based on player suggestion. Like a pack of wolves, he does not fight alone, and will use his minions to provide for him. Being the loyal hounds they are, some will not hesitate to keep him protected.
The Alpha Werewolf protects his pups in exchange: he can potentially buff his underlings so they can do his dirty job as well. Be aware of how they bounce off each other.
We look forward to hearing from everyone about their experience with the Alpha Werewolf! Your suggestions have brought in a new, exciting experience. We hope to have another opportunity in implementing community suggestions in the future!
Other changes

Controller support for various interactions have been updated and improved, such as in the map, or when using the inventory UI etc.
Improved initial load times when starting the game. Players will no longer have to wait a long time when starting up the game.
Improved load times when game has been running for a period of time.
We have resolved some memory issues that have previously caused some problems at times when the user plays the game for an extended period of time.
FIxed an issue where having a lot of items in your inventory will lead to long save/load times.
Fixed certain issues causing black screen to occur when transitioning between scenes.
Fixed various issues causing soft locks in pvp mode.
We'd love to hear from you! Reach out to us on Reddit, Discord or the Steam Forums.
And last but not least, if you haven't already, please consider giving us a positive review on Steam if you like how we are doing so far. It would really mean a lot to us. Thanks! :haha_gq:

Hey Heroes!
We got some great news for all of you: Patch 1.2.16 is now live on the Bleeding-Edge (BETA) branch! Your feedback once again has allowed us to continue expanding and improving Gordian Quest.
If you would like to give it a test, follow the instructions in this guide to give these brand new updates a shot.
Translations for Bleeding-Edge will come later and due this being a beta build, expect bugs. If you do bump across any, don’t forget to hit F8 to send us that report!
So what does 1.2.16 contain?

The addition of the new Realm Boss: The Alpha
Controller support enhancements
Optimizations (Preventing black screens and excessive loading.)
Realm Boss: The Alpha
The Alpha werewolf wants to showcase his training! You have a chance of encountering this pup on a Boss node during a Realm Mode run. The Alpha has been trained by you, the community, and is now live on the Bleeding-Edge branch to show off his fresh new tricks.
Since he's still getting used to his new skills, he's open to some suggestions and feedback. If he's looking a little buggy, let us know! We want to give out the most PAW-sitive boss fight ;).
Let us know what you think of him so we can improve him for the live build :)
We'd love to hear from you! Reach out to us on Reddit, Discord or the Steam Forums.
