We just pushed a minor updated. We fixed a few things in order to make the game run smoother on the soon to be released Valve Steam Deck.
We are pretty excited about the Steam Deck and Pathway plays great on the device. With this update we wanted to make sure that when you get your hands on your Deck, Pathway will just run.
Changelog for 1.4.1
A few improvements and fixes for Steam Deck compatibility
Community Translation Support Comes to Pathway!đ
Hey Adventurers!
Happy 2022! ËsteamhappyË
Weâre pretty excited to announce that Pathway now supports community language mods through the Steam Workshop! Talented members of the community are now able to create translations for the game and publish them directly through Steam. In fact, there's already a completed Italian translation available right now, translated by some of our amazing community members. Check it out here: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2678343514 We really hope this will enable even more players the chance to experience Pathway. Keep in mind, these are community translations and any problems/issues with them should be posted directly to their workshop pages so they can be addressed by the team that created them. We can't fix them!
If you are interested in starting a community translation project, you can find instructions inside the game's installation folder inside a folder labeled i18n. The readme will give you a starting point on setting up your language, and how to use excel to manage your translations. We'd also highly recommend you join our discord server as there's quite a few people there that may be able to help out in case you run into any problems.
Besides this addition, the build also includes a handful of smaller fixes and addresses a crash bug we've seen mentioned quite a few times in the forums recently.

Fixed a soft lock when using the ESC key to access the menu during combat.
Controller Support Comes To Pathway!
Controller support has now been officially added to Pathway! Last week we announced that Pathway will be coming to Nintendo Switch on May 27th - this huge update gave us the opportunity to work on an all-important and often-requested controller support for Pathway. The update also brings some UI tweaks and range of bug fixes with it. See full changelog below.
How to play Pathway with a controller
You first have to activate controller mode through the options menu. Navigate to the controls tab and select one of the supported controllers from the controls mode list:
Currently we have (official) support for Playstation, XBox and Switch controllers, but other controllers will probably work as well. After selecting your option click apply at the bottom and you should be good to go!
Full Changelog 1.3.0
Controller Support: The game can now be played fully with a variety of controllers.
Overhauled load out screen: The load out screen has received an overhaul. Both the character selection and the equipment phase are now combined into one. You can toggle between the jeep storage and the character info.
A few additional UI tweaks: Some fatter borders around buttons and some additional feedback in some places. A few actions have better target indication now.
Added some missing translations
Added some new glyphs to the fonts (Spanish)
Memory and performance improvements/tweaks
Fixed loot drops in Adventure 4 final fight
Fixed Bastet's Amulet missing from Artefact drops
Fixed some potential map blockers in bunker maps

Lots of smaller fixes we're forgetting

2 Years of Pathway & An Update Announcement!
Just a little over two years ago the first version of Pathway came out, and it's been a wild journey since then! We've pushed out over 50 updates since the initial release, and thanks to everyone in our amazing community we now have a game that is far better than what we started out with. Your feedback has been a tremendous help in shaping the game. So thank you everyone for your amazing support throughout the last 2 years!
We wanted to take this moment to highlight two community efforts that we think everyone should know about and a little something from us ...
Warpath Mod (by Petru)
The Warpath mod is to our knowledge the first (and only?) mod Pathway has received. Whilst we're not officially supporting mods through Steam, quite a lot of elements in the game can be tweaked and distributed to other players. Petru is a pillar of our community and he's created a complete rebalancing of the original game. Here's a look at the changes:
We think it's amazing what Petru has done! If you want a new/fresh experience check out the instructions on how to install the mod over on nexusmods: Warpath on Nexusmods
Community Italian Translation (by Darth Vader, Metallo, PiuMeglio)
Darth Vader has been spearheading a community effort to translate the game to Italian. They've just recently reached a huge milestone of translating the entire game. Darth Vader has created a post in the forums and anyone interested in testing this out should head over there for instructions: Lingua Italiana / Italian Language
But wait .. there's one more thing
Today we can finally announce that Pathway is getting controller support! It's taken us a while to get here, for reasons we can't talk about (yet ËsteamsadË). As of today, the controller version is available on the preview branch (for instructions how to access the preview version here). Keep in mind, this is a preview release, and with that you can expect some bugs. But if you're ok with a few rough edges, we'd love your help in testing this build before we release it to everyone else! This build also includes a few other UI tweaks and fixes.
Note: The macOS version is currently not supported on the preview branch. We will release an updated version asap.
Here's the full changelog:
Controller Support: Finally! This version adds "beta" controller support to Pathway. After launching the game, go to options->controls and change the controls mode to turn on controllers. At the moment only Xbox (compatible) Controllers are fully supported. It may work with other controllers if you remap some of the buttons yourself with a third-party tool. We'll work towards fixing this up before we push it onto the main release branch.
Overhauled load out screen: The load out screen has received an overhaul. Both the character selection and the equipment phase are now combined into one. You can toggle between the jeep storage and the character info.
A few additional UI tweaks: Some fatter borders around buttons and some additional feedback in some places. A few actions have better target indication now.
Added some missing translations
Added some new glyphs to the fonts (Spanish)
Some memory and performance improvements/tweaks
Fixed loot drops in Adventure 4 final fight
Fixed Bastet's Amulet missing from Artefact drops
