Hello royals!

Thank you for your patience on this one. There were a lot of bug reports in the last two weeks, thanks for that, it really helps us fixing them! Most of them were pretty minor, and some were more annoying. In particular we're really sorry about the issues that some Steam Deck and gamepad users encountered, some of which were pretty bad. We unfortunately do not have a Steam Deck ourselves to test the game, and the core of our community plays with mouse and keyboard, so we're low on controller-playing feedback.

Nonetheless, we did our best to fix all the issues that were reported, including the ones specific to Steam Deck and controller support. Please let us know how we did!

On top of all these fixes, we also added a new thing that was requested on our Discord server: each individual shotgun now tracks the best rank you've won with it! We were not saving this progress before this patch, so you'll have to win at least one run to see it in action, but we hope it'll motivate you to play the game with the shotguns you don't usually pick up!

And finally, this patch brings two new languages to the game: Italian and Brazilian Portuguese! Thank you to Primo Vinicio Calabrese and Emerson P. Machado respectively for making the game accessible to even more people!

Edit: Just put up a new quickpatch which takes care of a crash that was introduced with the 1.515 patch. Here's the full changelog for v1.515b:

• [BUGFIX] Fixed a crash on picking the disrupt reload option
  
• [BUGFIX] Fatality check now takes Bodyguard, Kite Shield and Cathedral into account

Edit 2: Just put up another quickpatch after it was reported that controller controls were still bugged. After some testing it appeared that the version of Steam's dev stuff we were using was outdated and it's possible the issues people were having were simply Steam Input acting up because of this. I also fixed some other bugs, here the full changelog for v1.515c:

• [BUGFIX] Fixed a crash when releasing the soul of a sanctified bishop with no soul slot
  
• [BUGFIX] Fixed a visual bug where after killing a santified bishop it looks like you're about to steal its soul even if you don't have an empty soul slot
  
• [BUGFIX] Codex and Shotgun progress badges no longer share the same save space
  
• [ENGINE] Updated Steam API, which hopefully fixes the controller issues a few people have been having
