Hello, fellow adventurers! I have some exciting news to share with you today. After three months of hard work, I have finally released a full controller support patch for my indie game Fabled Lands!
As you may know, Fabled Lands is a game inspired by the classic gamebooks of the same name, where you can explore a vast open world, create your own character, and shape your own destiny. It's a game that I keep wanting to play even though I am the dev, and I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.
One of the most frequently asked questions from the community was when are you planning to release this game on a handheld device because its going to be epic! Eventually I decided to go down that rabbit hole! The first step towards the ultimate goal (release for Nintendo) was to add controller support, so that you can play on your couch, on your TV, or Steam Deck. I decided to take on this challenge. It was not easy, but it was worth it.
I had to redesign the user interface, the menus, the inventory, the combat system, every bit of UI in the game to make them more controller friendly. I also had to test the game extensively with different types of controllers! Yeah that part didnt went well as I mostly used my Logitech gamepad and my Steam Deck. Yet, I wanted to make sure that the game feels intuitive and responsive with the most popular game pads out there.
To help me with this task, I invited some of you to join the open beta test of the newest feature. I want to thank you all for your valuable feedback, bug reports, and suggestions. Your input helped me iron out some remaining kinks and further optimize. I am immensely grateful for your involvement in shaping the final result.
To celebrate the release of the patch, I have made a short video on YouTube that showcases the new feature. You can watch it here:

I hope you like the video and the patch. Demo will be updated soon! Also if you encounter any issues or have further recommendations, please let me know what you think in the comments below or on the official Discord server. And if you haven't played Fabled Lands yet, you can get it now on Steam.

EXPLORE THE FABLED LANDS
- Open World
Revolution rages in a war-torn kingdom. You can join forces with the king to restore his throne - or look for profit in the pay of the dictator. Use fighting skills or sorcery, bribery or skulduggery to survive the assassins in city backstreets. Descend to the sewers of Yellowport to defeat the vile rat-king. Retrieve the golden net of the gods from the Repulsive Ones deep beneath the sea - and use the rewards of your victories to travel beyond the boundaries of the known in the world of Harkuna. Your journeys will bring you foes and friends, danger and triumph, fortune and fame - and more adventures than you thought. - Loot and Riches
Amass wealth, honours and power that will take you on voyages to uncharted regions. You can sail the high seas to distant ports. Plunder ancient treasures and do battle with the legions of darkness in the hall of the death-god. Penetrate the labyrinth of lies and sinister secrets of the scheming merchants of Golnir.
CHOOSE YOUR PATH
- An old-school RPG
A solitaire role playing game in a pick your own adventure style like no other. Explore a giant open-ended world, where you can truly travel, investigate, and meddle with things, when and as you see fit to do so. - Create YOUR Character
Write your own story! You can be a warrior, using weapons and combat skills to strike down all opponents; a mystical mage, skilled in sorcery; a clever rogue, acquiring wealth by theft and trickery; a daring wayfarer, probing and charting the forgotten reaches of the wilderness; a priest, fighting dark monsters with the holy fires of faith; or a troubadour, charming all you meet on your many fabulous exploits. - Tactical Combat
Hideous dangers await travellers in this savage land. Brigands, trolls, golems, flying heads, assassins, vampires, kelpies, demons, abominable cults, the undead, and many more - all of them will vanquish the unsuspecting adventurer.
SURVIVE AGAINST ALL ODDS
- Permadeath
Would you like to raise the stakes? Experience Ironman mode, where every decision is irreversible and your character dies once and for all. - Temples
Choose a deity and obtain its blessing. But remember: once an initiate, if you are to renounce a god or a goddess there is a price. Do you want to reconsider? - Ships
Buy your own ship: upgrade it and recruit a crew - their abilities might prove the difference when surviving a storm or vicious buccaneers. Fill your ship with valuable cargo and find where to sell it for profit.
