Ouros is launching August 14th on iOS and Android

I'm excited to announce that Ouros is coming to iOS and Android on Wednesday, August 14th!

Ouros is a calming puzzle game about forming beautiful curves in a serene space. Find your flow as you nudge, bend, and stretch curves into pleasing shapes, and discover the inherent mathematical beauty of Ouros. Ouros plays wonderfully on mobile devices! It has multi-touch controls that feel incredibly intuitive. I've been working hard on making Ouros work on these platforms and can't wait to get this version into your handsliterally! Cheers, Michael

Steam Deck Support! Last Chance to Play Demo!

Hey everyone! Hope all is well! Ouros is releasing in two weeks! May 22nd 2024! I've been working hard to get it across the finish line and have a couple of announcements to share.

Steam Deck Support

Ouros is supported on Steam Deck! I'm excited to announce that Ouros works great on Steam Deck! I've been working hard on getting it to work seamlessly, and am very happy with how it controls. You'll be able to play on Steam Deck in 3 different ways: [olist]

Ouros will have multi-touch support for Steam Deck. Multi-Touch works especially well on the new Steam Deck OLED!

You'll be to use the Right Trackpad to emulate the mouse cursor (click and drag with trackpad click or R2).

You'll also be able to use the Left Joystick to emulate the mouse cursor (click and drag with the A button).[/olist] You can even combine control schemes! For example you can use the right trackpad to drag one point, and use touch to drag another. Here's a video of multi-touch! [previewyoutube=I6FVM8dWrG4;full][/previewyoutube] The UI functions with the touch, mouse cursor emulation, and dpad+buttons. Ouros runs at a buttery smooth 90 fps on the new Steam Deck OLED model, and 60 fps on the older LCD model. If playing on the Steam Deck, be sure to use the Official Controller Layout.

Demo Ends May 15th

The Ouros Demo will remain available until Wednesday, May 15th. I hope you've all enjoyed the demo. If you haven't played it yet, you have one more week to try it out. That's all for now! Be sure to wishlist Ouros if you haven't already! I can't wait it into your hands. Best, Michael

Hey all, The first* Next Fest livestream for Ouros is tonight, Friday, Feb 9th @ 8pm PST (GMT-8). I'll be in chat answering questions. Stop by and say hi!
Thanks! Michael *There were broadcast issues with my previous steam event (my stream wasn't showing up on the Next Fest page because of issues on Steam's end), so Steam Support granted me a replacement slot.
