Don't miss out on the latest updates to Curvatron!

Update 5: change time limit for multiplayer matches



Someone asked for it and it seemed easy enough to implement so there you have it. You'll find the setting on the menu after selecting the multiplayer mode.

Have fun :point:

Curvatron - now with Linux support



Finally made Linux support officially available. Some of you might have noticed it was already possible to download the Linux version, but it wouldn't run through Steam, and even if you ran it manually, it had some major problems.

It now runs as intended, but some people will still run into some issues, unfortunately. The main game features (all the pre-included levels and game modes) should work fine for everyone, but stuff relating to the Steam platform (community levels, Workshop upload, achievements) may fail.

Hopefully this will let more people enjoy our game.

Have fun :point:

Update 4: option to slow down the game to decrease difficuty



Since a lot of players have been struggling with the unconventional controls of the game, we now give the option to slow down the snake's movement to give you a bit more time to plan your maneuvers. Hopefully this will be helpful for some of you.

Have fun :point:

Curvatron Soundtrack DLC released for free



These files have always been available in the game, but now they're organized and tagged correctly. You can find the Soundtrack in Steam's Music player, or in the "Soundtrack" directory where Curvatron is installed (.../Steam/steamapps/common/Curvatron/Soundtrack).

The soundtrack for Curvatron was provided by people all over the world, mostly by the community over at /r/WeAreTheMusicMakers, completely free of charge. If you like their work, click on their entry on the track list to visit their webpage!

Update 3

Fixed checkpoints persisting between community levels;
At the request of many families: difficulty of level 4 reduced;

Update 2 - Antivirus problems

Gist: if you had problems with Curvatron and your antivirus software, you can probably play the game now, but some features might be missing.

Some users have reported that Avast and Malwarebytes detect a certain file as being malicious. The culprit was was a file named greenworks-win32.node, which is part of the plugin (Greenworks) that's responsible for all the Steam-related features like uploading to Workshop, community levels, and achievements.

The antivirus software would detect the file and delete/quarantine it, making it inaccessible to Curvatron and crashing it in the process. I have put in place measures to make sure the game no longer crashes under these circumstances, but the aforementioned features will remain unusable if the antivirus blocks this file. I have also tried compiling the file myself, so maybe it won't even get detected in the first place now.

Update 1

Fixed crash when exiting Steam overlay under some circumstances;
Fixed adventure menu being unusable without a mouse;
(Hopefully) fixed crash on startup when using "very Chinese" game controllers.
