Read the original on Steam ↗Thank you to everyone who reported issues! This update addresses controller movement, Endless Mode freezes, and text readability on Steam Deck.
Controller Improvements
Added an adjustable Movement Deadzone setting to address unwanted movement and cases where Pete continued walking after the stick was released.
The setting ranges from 15–60, defaults to 20, and saves automatically.
Endless Mode Fixes
Fixed Endless runs occasionally freezing after a wave during loot collection or level-up processing.
Fixed rare soft-locks during end-of-wave, shop, level-up, and fight-on/cash-out transitions.
Fixed defeated enemies occasionally reactivating when killed during their spawn animation.
Improved enemy, pickup, and object cleanup for better stability during longer Endless runs.
Loot is no longer collected automatically when an Endless wave ends. Make sure to collect any drops you want to keep before the timer expires!
Steam Deck Readability
Increased text sizes across achievements, quests, level-unlock cards, shop and item descriptions, prices, stats, item levels, and recycling quantities.
Adjusted related UI layouts to accommodate the larger text as part of our work toward Steam Deck Verified status.
