Steam Deck Support & the Return of Halloween-Mode!
Heya railroad workers!
Halloween is around the corner and our decorated main menu, as well as our "Spooky" halloween-mode will return 🎃!
Aaaand in other news, Unrailed is now officially Steam Deck verified!
Combining both together, this is what you could look like:
Happy Deck-o-ween!
Changelog 2.0-405ad9df7: - Improvement: Spooky-Mode now available in local or (online) Time-Lobby and the menu is halloween themed - Improvement: General performance improvements (shader improvements, map-gen is more efficient, lag-spikes should be reduced). Especially for low-end devices should profit. - Improvement: Many sound bug fixes and improvements (thanks to @MtildeMusic & @felixbarbarino for going through all the sounds again) - Improvement: Signed executable to lower false positive virus alerts (Windows only) - Improvement: Game adapts to the Steam Deck: Higher UI font-size and hides keyboard UI elements until a keyboard button is pressed - Improvement: Old crashdumps are automatically removed on startup - Improvement: experimental-fna3 updated to FNA version 22.0.7 (containing all their bug fixes and improvements, especially related to D3D11, Vulkan support and much more, also containing a newer SDL version) - Improvement: Added VC++ 2013 redistributable to mitigate startup errors when not having it installed (Windows only) - Crash fix: "Yeti-Bug". Killing Yetis and Snowmen could lead to crashes (when new and old versions were playing together (eg PC & Console cross-plays)) - Crash fix: Crashes related to the Highscore menu - Bug Fix: Negative time in Time Mode was not synced and not visible in the replay - Change: Bot now suggests to join our Discord after pressing "Start Game" - Change: Non-modifiable controls in the "manage controller" menu are shown at the bottom (eg menu controls) - Change: MacOS & Linux builds updated to FNA 22.0.7 (for windows, use the experimental-fna3d branch)

Experimental Version Update
Heya railroad workers!
A new experimental version is ready! Many things under the hood changed as we finally merged now all console versions into the main branch. Also, the last Steam Deck submission gave us only "playable" but not yet "verified", since some texts were too small and keyboard-icons were still shown. This should now be fixed and we just re-submitted for a new verification.
Changelog 2.0-3d41f289a (compatible with production version except for time mode) - Improvement: General performance improvements (shader improvements, map-gen is more efficient, lag-spikes should be reduced). Especially for low-end devices should profit. - Improvement: Steam Deck has higher UI font-size and allows zooming during the game (with select) and hides keyboard UI elements until a keyboard button is pressed - Bug fix: Escape menu missing in the last experimental version - Change: Non-modifiable controls in the "manage controller" menu are shown at the bottom (eg menu controls) - Crash fix: "Yeti-Bug". Killing Yetis and Snowmen could lead to crashes (when new and old versions were playing together (eg PC & Console cross-plays)).
Edit: Yeti-Bug added to list

We also submitted this build for the Steam Deck verification and hope to get verified soon.
