Beta 6.3 - Controller Support for Build Mode

Beta 6.3 adds more controller support for build mode. This now works for both placing a new building and editing your town's existing buildings - moving, rotating, etc. The UI for upgrading wooden homes and changing the stone texture on your champion's home are also supported.

In the below gif I am using the controller to cycle through my existing buildings and move them to new locations!
  • To enter build mode press X.
  • Once in build mode you can either build a structure or manage your existing town.
  • To build a new structure use the d-pad up and down and then press A to build that structure.
  • To enter manage mode, press X. This will place a light blue square around a building in your town. You can move this square to select buildings using d-pad left and right. This will cycle through your buildings.
  • Pressing A will pick up the building (or open the UI in the case of a house or the champion's house)
  • Move the building using the d-pad.
  • Rotate the building using left and right bumper.
  • Press A to put the building in it's new location.
  • Pressing X will move you out of manage mode.
  • You can use the left stick to move the camera. Pressing down the left stick will toggle between the camera's two movement speeds.


With this update, the only thing left is the virtual keyboard for entering your character name, town name, and renaming an NPC. After that I'll create the UI displaying the controller map and add button mapping.

This update also includes a few quick fixes:
  • Fixed a bug that caused the Haunted Island to not clean up properly after the quest is completed. This could cause problems if you continued playing and started the Orc Quest in the same session.
  • Fixed a typo in the Orc Quest telling you to Press the build mode key while in the Orc Town.
  • Fixed some collisions in the Orc Town that caused the camera to zoom in when nothing was behind you.
