D&D and Gamma World are two influences intertwined in the DNA of the "newly" released roguelike RPG 'Caves of Qud'.

It’s so good, but I’m a bit sad that my current playthrough from last week can’t load into 1.0…

This means the story part is finished, right? I had a perfect run up to the point where the story wasn’t finished last time I played, I wonder if my old save file will still work so I can just continue where I left off… 🤔

Old save won’t work, gotta start fresh

And it’ll be worth it, depending on how long it’s been there’ve been a lot of changes and improvements

I am super intrigued by this, might pick it up next time it goes on a big sale.

Anyone try playing it on the Deck?

It’s truly worth the price. DM me your steam handle if you feel comfortable and I’ll gift it to you.

I know it’s on the “other” site, but this post from a few months ago has several people saying they got it working quite nicely: https://www.reddit.com/r/cavesofqud/comments/1dcqyym/regarding_qud_on_the_steam_deck/

Lemmy came through (below). Things are getting better here. I feel like we’re reaching critical mass, if only we could stop the infighting.

Yes, it works fine on the Deck! I find the controls less convenient than kbm, but that might just be me; everything you need is mapped and it feels quite intuitive after a bit.

Caves of Qud is outstanding. I already had 400 hours logged before the 1.0 launch, and plenty more since!

I’m playing it regularly on my Steam Deck with no issues. Just took a quick read through of the control mapping.

I was reading that the devs specifically did a revamp to map the deep control scheme for the Deck. So the answer to your questions is most likely yes.
