Hello good folks!

While the team is taking a break from all the work we put into getting the game out, we did quickly fix a couple of smaller issues and typos.

• Various typos in game text (English)
  
• Interaction with Snifty in the park was adjusted to be more consistent.
  
• Steam Deck fixes for various interactions being off due to screen ratio.
  
• Improved controller support.

After a good weekend rest, we hope to work on some quality of life features to improve the Mars Vice experience, so keep an eye out and thank you to everyone reporting!

Mars Vice launches today, and we're thrilled to share its world and story with you.

Meet Dax and Anaya, our civil investigators, and the diverse cast of characters they encounter. Their stories and the mysteries of Pavonis's bio-modified society drive our narrative. We focused on building a world where character connections and the unfolding plot take center stage.

Dive into a comedy-infused story of corruption and truth, shaped by the relationships you build and the evolving nature of humanity itself. We hope you'll have just as much fun playing our game as we had creating it.

Share your favorite moments and characters with us! We're reading your feedback.

Enjoy Pavonis!
