@MrMST Every few months we have a "release party" where we try to get lots of people on at the the time. We had one at the end of December so the next will likely be a few months away. The only thing released with a new version is a new version number, as we update the game weekly in between official releases.
One of our players (Qiu) got Veloren running on an MNT Pocket Reform!
The Veloren 0.17 Release party stream will be starting soon! Hop in at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kgK58NuBrXc if you have any questions :veloren:
For more info about the release see the blog post: https://veloren.net/release-0-17/
@Skyline969 How long ago did you try it on steam deck? There is a thread on discord where we have collected tweaks and tricks to make the steam deck experience better. We do have controller support, however there is no UI for rebinding buttons (requiring editing a text config)
@MrMST We recently changed audio library. Do you have any kind of unique sound setup? In the past people with Razer sound systems had issues if they had stereo turned on to 7.1. I'm not sure that is relevant anymore with the new lib
After 9 months of work, we're happy to announce that Veloren 0.17 is almost ready!
Join us in-game at 18:00 GMT on December 28th, when we will hold a release party on the official game server 🎉

Are you at CCC? Currently some veloren core-devs are holding an assembly. Come and get your ”Gliding” badge! :veloren:
@ghjfshh It isn't on the roadmap. If someone comes along and puts in the effort to make it happen, the team isn't opposed to having an android port, but no one is working on it right now and there is currently no plan for it
In case you haven't played in a while, be sure to check out the reworked cultist dungeons!

@baer @eragon it isn't intended but the current game loop can be a tad grindy. We plan to make it much less so in the future :)
