I'm excited to announce that Plangman is scheduled to release in two days, on Wednesday, March 26th!

For which platforms?

The game will be available for Windows, Mac, and Linux.

How much will it cost?

The game will be free, but the soundtrack will be $3.99 USD and will include a few surprises if you browse the local files.

Will it run on my Steam Deck?

Yes, the Linux version of Plangman runs well on the Steam Deck. I've spent the past week implementing expanded Xbox controller support for the parts of the game that previously only supported keyboard input (such as the menus). There are a couple places where keyboard input is still needed (namely, Challenge a Friend mode and the Level Editor). However, everything else in the game should now be controller-friendly. Here's the current list of known Steam Deck issues:

• Some of the text can be hard to read on a 7" screen.
• D-pad input doesn't work for some reason.
• For the parts of the game that still require keyboard input, you have to press STEAM + X to bring up the virtual on-screen keyboard.

That's it for now! - Ehren
