I See Red is available to play on the Steam Deck!
After all, I See Red is a twin-stick shooter roguelite; if we go by the first, it should be clear that it is a natural candidate for this type of consoles. Even in PC, you can plug in a controller and play normally, which means a majority of the work we did to optimize the PC version, as well as adjustments we made for future releases in other consoles, served to have us working excellently in Steam Deck.
We invite everyone who owns a Deck to try out I See Red and play or replay it in it's full, twin-stick glory!

Out of all the awards and recognitions that we can receive as a videogame or at Whiteboard Games, the ones that come from our Argentine colleagues, developers and mentors are the ones that make us most proud.

I See Red and its PC publisher Gameforge part ways
You may have noticed that I See Red's storefronts no longer feature Gameforge, its release publisher.
The reason behind this is that Whiteboard Games and Gameforge have mutually agreed to part ways on this project in search of new horizons. Don’t worry: we are still working on future updates as well as continuing our work on getting the game to new platforms.
Everyone at Whiteboard wishes our friends there the best in their future adventures. We are thankful for the work we did together and more than ready for what comes next, both regarding this raging twin-stick shooter roguelite as well as other exciting projects.
Stay tuned!
