Is there any chance of this game getting steam deck support?
If you use the mouse function of the Steam Deck, I think you should be able to play. But since I don't own a Steam Deck, I don't know for sure.
I have tried it on the deck. It just starts up as a black screen. I have tried it with different versions of proton as well.
This game was created using Visual Novel Maker. If they ever update this engine to add Steam Deck support, I will update my game.
I hope one day this game does get linux/deck support. I played a little bit of it in a windows cloud machine and really liked the first couple of hours. The deck is my preferred way of playing VNs so I was hoping to finish this next.
BTW, are you working on another game. I noticed this game is the only game you have published on steam and it came out about 4 years ago.
Maybe there's a way to compile a Linux port. I'll look into it.
I'll definitely make another game some day. I'm still not sure what kind of game it will be, but it would be a completely different art style.
Keizudo took me over 1000 hours to make, and I've only made a few hundred boxes of it. So unfortunately I can't quit my day job to work on a game full time.
I paid for this game earlier today and I've just finally completed it. I thought the beginning of the game was a bit slow-paced, but once the story started to pick up, I found myself really enjoying it!
The art style did take a bit of getting used to, but I did used to play those old PS1 games, so I found myself appreciating the art style more and more as the game went on.
And without giving away any spoilers, I really liked how the romantic subplot ended up "tying in" to how Zakumi fought in the Keizudo fights.
And I didn't know in advance whether the love triangle would be resolved in favor of Akemi or Yayoi, but once the love triangle was resolved (without giving away any spoilers as to what the resolution is), I did enjoy how both Akemi and Yayoi's stories ended.
So in summary, this was a good game; thank you very much for making it!
