Owlboy, a rather sweet story-driven platformer developed by D-Pad Studio has been updated and it's quite a major change for the tech behind it that will make it run nicely on the Steam Deck. Currently, the game has an "Unsupported" rating but this should hopefully move it over to Verified.
Here's what's new:
- Changed to FNA, which should fix multiple crashes
- The old XNA version of the game is still available on the "xnaversion" beta branch on Steam
- Level loading is much faster
- More readable Japanese, Chinese, Traditional Chinese, and Korean fonts
- Better error logging, moved logs to C:\Users\
\Saved Games\Owlboy\Saves\logs - One shared build for Windows, Mac, and Linux
- Support for PS4 controller natively
- Help files now available in Data/Help in the install directory
- Many out of bounds and speed-runner glitches fixed
