Fixed an issue where some gamepads would drop trigger inputs when both triggers were pulled simultaniously.

Today we pushed our last major content update for Down the Drain. At this point we consider the game feature complete, but we'll be on the lookout for bugs and other issues as usual. If you run into a problem and would like to report it, please reach out to us at support@cubicorngames.com.

With all of that said, here is a summary of the changes that went live today.

[h2]Platform Specific Updates[/h2]

[h3]Full Steam Deck Support Has Been Added[/h3]

-A new Linux build tested specifically for Steam Deck is now available.

-Steam Deck build has noted performance improvements compared to the Windows version running in Proton, and the UI has been updated with Steam Deck specific iconography.

--Existing Steam Deck users may have to uninstall and reinstall the game to gain access to the new Linux specific build.

---To force your Steam Deck to pull the new Linux version if you've previously played the Windows one, uninstall the game, then click the "Settings" gear icon and choose "Properties". Under the compatibility menu, check the "Force the use of specific Steam Play compatibility tool" option, and then choose "Steam Linux Runtime" from the dropdown and reinstall the game.

---Existing Steam Deck users switching from the Windows build to the Steam Deck specific Linux build may lose save data moving from the old executable to the new one (contact us at support@cubicorngames.com if this occurs and you would like assistance restoring lost progress).
