'Caves Of Qud': Roguelike RPG Finally Launches After 17 Years in Development (And It's Really Good)
D&D and Gamma World are two influences intertwined in the DNA of the "newly" released roguelike RPG 'Caves of Qud'.
This means the story part is finished, right? I had a perfect run up to the point where the story wasn't finished last time I played, I wonder if my old save file will still work so I can just continue where I left off... 🤔
This means the story part is finished, right?
According to the release post, yes
The Caves of Qud 1.0 update includes:
- The conclusion of the main quest, with multiple endings
Old save won't work, gotta start fresh
And it'll be worth it, depending on how long it's been there've been a lot of changes and improvements
I am super intrigued by this, might pick it up next time it goes on a big sale.
Anyone try playing it on the Deck?
I know it's on the "other" site, but this post from a few months ago has several people saying they got it working quite nicely: https://www.reddit.com/r/cavesofqud/comments/1dcqyym/regarding_qud_on_the_steam_deck/
Works great on Deck!
Yes, it works fine on the Deck! I find the controls less convenient than kbm, but that might just be me; everything you need is mapped and it feels quite intuitive after a bit.
Caves of Qud is outstanding. I already had 400 hours logged before the 1.0 launch, and plenty more since!
Will it run on Steam Linux?
I was reading that the devs specifically did a revamp to map the deep control scheme for the Deck. So the answer to your questions is most likely yes.
Cool! I’ll check it out when I get home. Thanks!!
I'm playing it regularly on my Steam Deck with no issues. Just took a quick read through of the control mapping.
This game is awesome. Fair warning tho: it is hard af
It's so good, but I'm a bit sad that my current playthrough from last week can't load into 1.0...
Did they finish moving it to Godot before 1.0?
