Scrabdackle is a hand-drawn action/adventure game about going exploring, with non-linear progression and a unique mix of skill-based challenge and accessible gameplay. It features a vast, intricate overworld, tight and responsive combat, cheeky banter, and pages of lore to discover – all under a coat of playful charm.
You'll discover secrets, meet the land’s curious inhabitants, master new spells, study magical creatures, and overcome challenging bosses.
Inspired by classics like Link's Awakening, An Untitled Story, and Hollow Knight, Scrabdackle is a project designed, animated, programmed, and scored by one developer wanting to make a world worth getting lost in.
- Expansive, non-linear world allows for high replayability. The map can be navigated in any order on any playthrough. Try a different route every time!
- Secret characters, areas, storylines and oddities hidden where you least expect them. The more you explore, the more you’ll be rewarded with unexpected and delightful encounters.
- Tough-but-fair bosses with tight, challenging combat. With some practice, you can walk away from any fight unscathed. Or, toggle assist settings to define your own challenge.
- Unique storybook visual style made with hand-drawn line art and a pixelated brush.
- Optional dialogue that doesn’t take control away from the player. Just walk away mid-conversation, and characters will wave you off.
- Fill out your official wizardly notebook by scrying new creatures and documenting your findings! Review your field logs any time to see the world in closer detail!
- Charming original soundtrack with new tracks for every corner of the world.
- Tons of spells and relics to master. Swap magic powers on the fly to face any type of challenge any way you want!
Hey all, just wanted to put a piece out with some more detail about how we\'re approaching Steam Deck support, and why we\'re doing it that way.
(Update: If you read this, prior to 11/20, the situation\'s a little different and I\'ve edited the below. -Jake)
Short answers first before more detail!

Will Scrabdackle support Steam Deck on launch? Yes (said with reservation)
When will you have less reservation behind that \'Yes\'? ...I\'m not sure yet!
Currently, the game runs okay on Steam Deck - there are some awkward patches, because it\'s not actually \'officially\' supported, because, well - at present, I haven\'t had any time to support Steam Deck yet, and if you\'ve given it a try you\'ll know that it kinda shows.
The awkwardness is all resolvable stuff, but it\'s not resolvable right now, and the experience right now is unfortunately not a great representation of the actual game. The game doesn\'t actually \"know\" if you\'re running on Steam Deck right now, basically, and that takes work and research and testing to set up right.
The reality is that, due to the above, I don\'t actually want the game to be on Steam Deck quite yet when it\'s not ready to be! I\'d rather \'launch\' on Steam Deck intentionally, once I\'ve had time to look into API trigger integration stuff and what\'s involved in supporting a hybrid mouse/controller input system and all that.
Not sure when that will be yet, though. It\'s not really a simple or small task, and I need to find a decent chunk of time to allocate while also supporting the PC Act 1 release and progressing Act 2 forward development at the same time.
Basically, we\'d really like to be enthusiastic about Steam Deck when we\'re ready and the game properly supports it - but right now it doesn\'t. And I\'ll let you know once I know when that\'s gonna be!
Hope that\'s understandable enough. Cheers!
