Mystery of Melody Memorial makes for a great experience on the go, so I'm very happy to say and gather testimonial from early adopters that the game works remarkably well on the Steam Deck!

However, it might not be immediately obvious for players how they should configure the buttons to play the game ideally. So allow me to help you on that!

Of course, the arrow keys should be mapped to the D-Pad (analog stick also works well). However, the face buttons on the right should have the W,A,S, and D keys mapped to them.

More specifically:
-Y on Steam Deck - W on keyboard
-X on Steam Deck - A on keyboard
-A on Steam Deck - S on keyboard
-B on Steam Deck - D on keyboard

The left bumper/trigger should have the Z key mapped to it.
The right bumper/trigger should have the X key mapped to it.
And finally, Start (or whatever the equivalent button is called on Steam Deck) should have the Enter key mapped to it.

Of course, this is just how I would set up the controls.
If there's a way you feel is easier for you, you take that way!

And if you don't have a Steam Deck, you can still use this advice if you're trying to set up a USB controller to play the game on your computer.

Either way, I wish you the best on your journey to Melody Memorial!

Hi, everyone! Hope you have all been well and had quite the happy holidays!

As we head into 2024, I am proud to say that I am putting the finishing touches on Mystery of Melody Memorial and have a release date locked in! After too many years on-and-off of development, I can finally tell you that the game will be arriving to Steam on February 23rd.

I apologize to those that have been keeping the game in memory and continuously waiting for it to come out with no update for a while. It's difficult to have people posted on a title that hasn't been consistently getting the work it needed to be fulfilled. Life stuff has gotten in the way severely, and there were other projects I wanted to explore ideas for and remind people I'm still making things.

Needless to say, the light at the end of the tunnel is shining bright, and I have been playing Mystery of Melody Memorial from beginning to end multiple times to iron out anything left that could be improved on to my liking.

If you would like to be kept posted about the game beyond Steam announcements, you can check out the game's Discord server here[discord.gg] or Follow the game's Twitter handle.

Thank you very much for taking the time to read this, and I hope you look forward to Joseph and Angeli's adventure when the game debuts early next year.
