Fighting Fantasy Classics (tuxdb.com)

Hello adventurers! We have an update that we'll be pushing up in the next week or so that brings some QoL improvements to Fighting Fantasy Classics, particularly if you're playing your gamebooks on a Steam Deck.

1) New Save System

Support has been added for three adventure profiles per FF gamebook. This means you can have multiple run-throughs with three different characters, each with 100 page saves (bookmarks) that also include the time and date of the save. We'll also be giving you the ability to delete your bookmarks too, a regularly requested feature! You'll also be able to delete an adventure profile, if you feel you've wandered too far down one of Ian or Steve's notorious story dead-ends.

2) Controller Support

We're making full use of modern controllers, with a mind to making the game more playable on your handheld device of choice, or using controllers on your computer. For Steam Deck users this means using buttons to select buttons, roll dice and turn pages, rather than using the mousepad, which can sometimes feel a little cumbersome in FFC. Keyboard support is also included that should hopefully help us when requesting our big green Steam Deck tick!

3) Updates to page layouts

And finally, we've made some minor tweaks to the the page layouts, which should now make better use of the original gamebook page dividers - a HUGE part of an FF gamebook's aesthetic. An embossed FF logo will also replace blank, empty pages on the right, which reinforces the FF brand in screenshots, and helps add a bit more character to the presentation. If you're an FF fan and you've been on the fence with regards to making your Steam library portable, now may be a good time! warlockorc Coming very soon.
