If you've been paying attention to development - or just snooped around the BETAs setting on Steam - you may have noticed the PREVIEW branch. This is a way for you to try out in-progress versions. These are stable but contain some still unfinished or untested things.
Starting today you can check out a new version in PREVIEW. It contains full keyboard and controller support. As a side-effect of working on the console version support for joypads was added and this version is now available on Steam as part of the PREVIEW branch.
If you install this version and launch it, all you need to do is hit a button on your keyboard on controller to switch to the appropriate controls. You can also change between control modes: NAVIGATION and CURSOR using the options screen in the main menu.
NAVIGATION simply has you move between the different buttons, items or elements on the screen. It's what's most common on consoles. It's simpler to use, and quicker to pick up.
CURSOR instead gives you a virtual cursor that you can move with your controller. This may need some getting used to but it allows you to get hover-based information more intuitively.
And that's it. I'd love to get some thoughts and feedback before this version is rolled out to everyone on Steam. If you have any comments, drop them in Discord or in the Steam forums!
And as always, stay hydrated and stay safe!

A roguelike deck-building game
Nowhere Prophet is a single player card game with procedurally generated maps, a high difficulty and permadeath. At it's heart are two distinct parts of gameplay: Travel and combat.TRAVEL
During travel you navigate across a procedurally generated map. Make sure your convoy has enough resources to travel as you pick your route. On your journey you will encounter strange places and even stranger people. You will be thrust into situations that put the fate of your followers in your hands.
If you're lucky enough to gain some rewards, maybe for helping someone - or robbing them, then you can invest those to improve your decks. Recruit more followers to have more and different units to put into battle. Equip your prophet or level up and learn new skills to have access to stronger action cards in combat.
COMBAT
You will have to overcome some enemies to keep your convoy and resources together. And sometimes you may even want to pick a fight for righteousness or just for loot. Once in battle the game changes to the turn-based card game mode.
Play convoy cards to put your followers onto the field and position them so you can overcome your enemy. Or play action cards to dramatically change the battlefield. But be careful: If you're wounded you will have to find a safe place to heal. And if one of your followers takes too many wounds, they are lost forever.
A science-fiction post-apocalypse
Nowhere Prophet is set on a far off planet called Soma. Your story begins many years after the Crash, a complete technological collapse. Civilization has broken down and the lack of resources made everyone turn either bandit or madman.In this world inspired by Indian culture you lead a convoy of outcastes. These desperate men and woman following your vision of a better future. Under your guidance they travel with you through the wastelands. Your goal is the Crypt, a mystical place that promises untainted technology and safety.
If you can survive long enough to find it.
