Day 15 Update - Controller Support is Live & 10,000+ Merchants

Dear Merchants,

Fifteen days in and the energy around here is higher than ever. Today’s update marks a great milestone for our team and we are incredibly proud to deliver on a promise we made to you all just a couple of weeks ago. You can now grab your controllers and get back to business!

🎮 Full Controller Support is Here!

Right from launch, so many of you asked for a way to manage your shops from the comfort of a gamepad. We promised we would make it happen as soon as possible and the team has been working around the clock to ensure we kept that word. Full controller support is now officially live! We have poured a ton of testing into making it feel natural, but as with any massive system overhaul, please let us know if you stumble across any weirdness or have layout feedback so we can patch it up immediately.

🪙 10,000+ Merchants in the Town!

We are absolutely thrilled to announce that Arcane Merchant has officially passed 10,000 copies sold! Knowing there are now over 10,000 shopkeepers running their trading empires in our world is completely surreal for a small indie team like ours. To every single person who backed us from day one, shared bug reports or left detailed economy notes, this milestone belongs to you. You are the foundation of this game and your feedback is actively shaping its future. Thank you all for the never-ending support.

Our commitment to this community hasn't changed since the first hour of launch. We are still listening, grinding and completely dedicated to keeping the updates, optimizations and polishes rolling out.

If you want to stand by us as we continue to shape and expand the game, please take a quick minute to leave a Steam review! ✨

Your honest thoughts are the absolute best way to back our team, proving that a dedicated indie studio can build something incredible right alongside its community.
