UPDATE 1.4.0
NEW
-Full
controller support added. The game is now fully playable from start to finish with only a controller and on Steam Deck the game is now also smoother to play. If you have any further improvement ideas or feedback for the controller support, let me know in the discussions or on Discord!
(Note: If you are having any issues getting the controller to work properly, please first check the Controller settings in the game's Steam settings to make sure it says "Use default settings". On Steam Deck, make sure you are using the new default configuration).
-Added a movement preview arrow next to your current unit. This will be shown if you hover the mouse over a movement arrow or have the arrow selected with a gamepad. The preview arrow can be turned off in options.
-Added a slider in options to adjust controller sensitivity.
-Added a slider in options to adjust the size of combat log text.
-Steam Deck: Updated the default layout configuration to "Gamepad with Joystick Trackpad", which works great with the new controller support.
[h2]CHANGES[/h2]
-Lower resolution screens
(such as Steam Deck) will now by default have higher tooltip and combat log text sizes. These can still be adjusted in options though.
-Adjusted the size of different windows & texts to look better on smaller screens.
-Small navigation adjustments to better support controller navigation.
-Small UI adjustments.
[h2]BALANCING[/h2]
I felt that with accessory slot items it was often too easy to go with limited number of powerful effects or items that give pure stats. So in this update I went through all the accessory items and buffed a lot of them that were situational or not as powerful as they should be. This should make the accessory choices more meaningful and increase build variety.

[h2]FIXES[/h2]

-Fixed a bug that caused the game to not remember Domination mode high scores.
-Fixed a bug where the game remembered the last played game mode wrong if the player had not yet unlocked Endless mode and played one of the new game modes.
-Adjusted the death animation of Wight boss to fit better within the tile it is in.
-Electric Galoshes relic now properly deals piercing damage.
-Fixed a bug where a skill removed in lvl-up window did not immediately visually remove it in inventory view.
-Fixed a visual bug where skill buttons in battle sometimes stayed popped up after using them.
-Fixed a bug where the skip button was visible for the first lvl-up reward, even if it was a stat increase.
