Turbo Overkill is easily one of the best shooters I've played in a long time, and this latest update has made it even better - especially for users of controllers and players on Steam Deck.
At the 1.0 release controller support was, eh, terrible. Their official config for release set Steam Input to act like a mouse and keyboard and while it worked, it wasn't ideal of course. Now you can update, and swap over to a standard gamepad configuration in Steam Input and it will all work very smoothly.
Giving it a run myself with the latest update and yep — a massive difference to how it feels on Steam Deck. There's even a new Steam Deck graphics preset which is really nice to see. I already really loved it and now I love it even more. Even the menu and settings text has been improved to be much clearer.
Oh, they also added an Arcade Mode and overhauled the Level Editor so that's cool too. Haven't tried those yet, just happy to see my initial annoyances being completely entirely solved.
