Gamepad Support Beta Available

Pawnbarian

Pawnbarian is a quick-playing, turn-based puzzle roguelike. Play cards to move your hero like a chess piece, and conquer challenging dungeons full of cunning monsters!

Full gamepad support is now available in the beta test branch! Everything seems to work A-OK, but the whole underlying input system has been overhauled, including for keyboard & mouse, so I want it to go through a short testing period first. Give it a spin, and please share any thoughts on it - even if it's just a "works fine", which is what I'm hoping for! To switch to the beta branch: - right click Pawnbarian in your Steam Library - select Properties - select Betas - switch to "public-beta" Select "none" instead to switch back to the main version of the game.

You can swap between K&M and gamepad at any time, the game will adjust accordingly. A few limitations / not yet implemented features: - Tutorial text doesn't account for gamepad use. High priority. - Polish language version doesn't have the new strings translated. High priority. - Gamepad input isn't rebindable. Medium priority. - There are no button prompts during gameplay. Medium priority to have it as an option. - Some non-crucial descriptions aren't available (loot, hearts, deck/discard). Low priority. Cheers, Jan
