Replicat Major Update #1

Hey everyone!

We’ve just rolled out a new update for Replicat, and I’m excited to share what’s new!

🎮 Controller Support (Alpha)
The headline feature for this update is controller support! You can now kick back and play Replicat from start to finish with your favorite gamepad. This is an alpha version—it’s fully functional, but not yet perfectly polished. For the best UX, I’ll need to revisit and tweak the UI specifically for gamepad mode in a future update. For now, it’s all about letting you enjoy Replicat from the comfort of your couch!

Steam Deck: Controller support should also work on Steam Deck, though I haven’t been able to test it myself. If you try it out, I’d love to hear your feedback! Some players have mentioned the game already works well with touch—now you can choose whichever control style you prefer.

🐛 Bug Fixes
Alongside controller support, this update includes a bunch of minor bug fixes to make your gameplay smoother.

🎉 June Is a Huge Month for Replicat!
🗓️ Upcoming Events
TurnBasedThursday Fest (June 2nd): Replicat will be featured alongside awesome titles like Baldur’s Gate 3 and Clair Obscur: Expedition 33!

Best Indie Games Showcase (June 3rd): I’m thrilled for Replicat to be part of this event—fingers crossed for some extra visibility!

Steam Next Fest (June 9th): The big one! I’ll be working hard to fix bugs and listen to all your feedback during the festival.

Thank you all for your support and feedback—it’s what helps Replicat grow and improve. Please try out the new controller support and let me know what you think, especially if you’re playing on Steam Deck!

Stay tuned for more updates, and see you at the festivals!
Let’s make June a purrfect month for Replicat! 🐱✨
