It already does :)
Eeeh it doesn't feel like it if your talking about the demo, I'm just hoping it'll lose the Ai components upon launch and iron out the movement and control's

Please check the latest Announcement The small amount of AI that was used in the game has already been removed.
And do please try and keep other peoples threads on topic, we have a Feedback section and an in game feedback tool if you want to include your thoughts on other elements of the game :)
I know this works 100% on steam deck as I play it, but why it keeps saying steam deck compatibility unknown on the page should be changed by now ,so people will see it. Maybe the dev can get it changed ☺️
Any update on steam deck compatibility ?

The game has been playable on Steam Deck since Alpha, in fact one of our Community Managers is playing on it now whilst he awaits his flight.

Can he share his controller layout then? The default layout is okay for movement, but you can't build with it.

I like the game so far, but the controller support isn't very well thought out when it comes to building. On Steam Deck I constantly have to use the touchscreen. Sometimes even that doesn't help.

On PC I tried playing with my Xbox controller, but I switched back to keyboard and mouse within minutes.

I will ask them if they will come and talk to you about the Steam Deck controls.

Hi there i have not tried building yet but on my steam deck i have set right track pad as a mouse with push to left click. I have done this to make tool selection quicker and easier😁👍🏻. Let you know when i get to building.

Thank you for answering. I tried the same. The problem is that you can place the blueprint, but you can't finish building it. Sometimes something even weirder happens: the controls seem to stop working completely while the game keeps running. This seems to be connected to switching between your tools or objects in the inventory, but I haven't figured out exactly what triggers it yet.
Edit: Only on the Steam Deck, not on PC
