Today we launched a demo for 'Elroy and the Aliens' on Steam for Mac and Windows. I'm incredibly proud of the game and grateful that I've been able to be part of such a wonderful team at Motiviti.

I'd love to get your feedback on the demo, shares on social media would also be very much appreciated!

Steam：Elroy and the Aliens Demo

DEMO: It's the year 1993. Talking robots, ghosts from the past, and ancient alien technology buried under desert sand. A point and click adventure following Elroy and Peggie in the search of a long lost father. How far would you go to bring back the ones you love?

@robertmegone the presentation reminds me of Sam and Max Hit the road though less pixelated.

Yes, that is a compliment :)

@robertmegone is this Steam Deck compatible?

@shaun0024 @robertmegone thanks, I was gonna ask if it's proton compatible for Linux haha
Show threadRobert MegoneAug 15, 2024
@AndrewHacks @shaun0024 yes, absolutely! I’ve done some testing with the Steam Deck using the default Proton configuration and it worked flawlessly. 👍

@robertmegone @shaun0024 Interesting!

I tried it yesterday in Linux and the game kept crashing using proton 8.

But I also noticed that my nvidia driver is completely broken in manjaro (ah the joys of Linux). Other games are working with my internal Intel gpu, but probably something I did wrong.

@AndrewHacks I tried this very briefly on my AMD handheld that runs on Bazzite and it seemed to work but I couldn’t play it with the controllers, only with a keyboard and mouse. Will try some community mcontroller mappings over the weekend.

@shaun0024 yes, we’ve also added a community controller mapping for Steam Deck that should make it a little more comfortable to play.
