Today is the first day of LudoNarraCon, and we are thrilled to release the first major update for [b]Death of a Wish[/b]: The Randomizer Update! [h2]Death of a Wish Randomizer[/h2] [img]https://clan.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/images//44191615/63b5f89098a254fa13555aa6654efee5832dd6c4.png[/img] The [b]Randomizer Update[/b] adds a new mode that allows players to experience the Nightmare like never before! This mode allows players to replay the entire game with randomized enemy and item placements, including randomized starting equipment. Take on the game in brand new ways by mastering different combat styles and managing unpredictable encounters. No two playthroughs will be the same, so it's almost like trying the game from scratch!

These options provide [b]Death of a Wish[/b] with new depth and replayability! [i]The Randomizer Mode unlocks as a reward for completing the main game, but you can also unlock it and other completion rewards from a new "Unlock Completion Rewards" setting under - Options - in the main menu![/i] [img]https://clan.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/images//44191615/28b2d9890ed41812834c048b41a6ec495397df33.png[/img] [h2]macOS and Linux Support[/h2] Alongside the Randomizer Update, we're also launching Mac and Linux versions of [b]Death of a Wish[/b] today! As of today, the game is now available on PC, Mac, Linux, and Nintendo Switch. If you have been holding out for the game to come to your platform of choice, now's a fantastic time to get it because the game is being discounted for [b]LudoNarraCon[/b]! [h3][b]IMPORTANT:[/b] For [b]STEAM DECK[/b] Users[/h3] For existing Steam Deck players, if you'd like to continue using the Windows version of the game, please select [b]Manage[/b] (the gear icon) on the game in your library, then [b]Properties[/b] > [b]Compatibility[/b] > [b]Force the use of a specific Steam Play compatibility tool[/b], then [b]select a version of Proton from the dropdown[/b] (Proton Experimental works fine from my testing). The game should then update briefly and you'll be good to go! Likewise, [b]if you'd like to use the native Linux version on Steam Deck instead[/b], follow the directions above, except instead of choosing a version of Proton from the compatibility dropdown, [b]select Steam Linux Runtime[/b] (it should be near the bottom or at the bottom of the list). After a brief update, the game will be ready to run its Linux version. Note that [b]the save file locations for the Windows and Linux versions are different from each other[/b], so if you'd like to maintain your progress when switching platforms, you'll want to [b]copy the save data file from the first location to the other[/b]. These files can be found on your Steam Deck at the file paths below: Windows version: [i]Home/.steam/steam/steamapps/compdata/2302080/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/AppData/LocalLow/melessthanthree/DeathOfAWish/savedGames.gd[/i] Linux version: [i]Home/.config/unity3d/melessthanthree/DeathOfAWish/savedGames.gd[/i] [h2]LudoNarraCon[/h2] We're so excited to let you all know that [b]Death of a Wish[/b] is an official selection for this year's edition of LudoNarraCon! This digital festival hosted by indie publisher Fellow Traveler runs from May 9 - 13, kicking off at 10 AM Pacific Time on the 9th.
