Katanaut continues to improve since its launch back in September, and it is a great pick if you’re in the mood for some good old cosmic horror. It is Steam Deck Verified now, thanks to some great work on the part of developer Voidmaw, and patch 1.020 adds a bunch of polish, as well as some helpful Steam Deck fixes.

Performance on the Steam Deck has been improved with reduced blood and guts during combat to help smooth any frame drops from previous patches. The update also digs into the polishing aspects, including refined animations, rebalanced skills, implant toggling, and a bunch of bug fixes for item clipping and controller mapping.
