The Charnel House Trilogy Steam Controller Support

By Rebecca Smith,

Hello! The Charnel House Trilogy and Richard & Alice now have a recommended Steam controller config, created by me. And I think it works lovely.

Recently I got a Steam Controller, and I'm a big fan. What surprised me was just how wonderful the controller is for point and click adventure games. I never thought I'd opt to play a PnC on a controller, but I played the entirety of the upcoming Shardlight using it, as well as Charnel House, Richard & Alice and a bunch of stuff. It's especially great for me because I have a spinal disability, so using the mouse for long stretches of time is a bit of a pain.

The controller configuration includes two different trackpad speeds, a variety of button options for the mouse functions, and even rudimentary text entry for quickly naming savegames. And of course, if there's anything you want to tweak, Steam allows you to adjust my config. But if you fancy playing the games with the controller in the way I intend, then just check out the Recommended section in Big Picture mode and there you go!

To celebrate the controller update, I've put the games on sale starting from 10am PST, on 02/17/2016, for ten days. If you have a Steam controller and fancy trying our games with it, give it a go!

ALSO, we're proud to announce that we're partnering with Brainchild, developer of The Slaughter: Act 1, to help promote and publish the series. I first played The Slaughter just over a month ago, and I think it's incredible, and I really think fans of our games would love it. Go pick it up! It also has new Steam controller support using my config, so that's nice.
