Hi everyone! Adam and I have a new game coming this summer, "The Mermaid Mask"! There's a demo in the Steam Next Fest right now, so check it out, and give it a wishlist - while it's not a full on horror game, I think you'd enjoy it if you liked Crow Country's story and worldbuilding. Adam wrote both games after all!

Plus helping this game do well helps fund us to make our next game...

Alright, thanks for taking a look!

Crow Country turns One Year Old! Improved Keyboard Controls!

SFBTomsteam_community_announcements

451d ago

Hello everyone! One year ago today, my brother Adam and I launched Crow Country here on Steam, and we were blown away by the response! We've been a 2-person company for nearly 13 years now, and have been making games together for over 20 years, but this has been our most successful year by far. So many people playing, sharing, streaming, recommending and reviewing the game, all around the world, has given us a huge boost of energy to take into our next games, so: thank you. OK, on to the good stuff! One of the pieces of feedback we've received, here on Steam and elsewhere, is that the keyboard controls for Crow Country aren't as good as they could be. So I've been working to bring them up to the level of the gamepad controls (still our recommended way to play for now!). That starts with a new default layout, which we've labelled CLASSIC in the settings. We took a good hard look at what other survival horror games do with their keyboard layouts, listened to comments about what's off about our old layout, and come up with something that I think should feel a lot better out of the box for new players. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44716389/db9d72762385ee2895d1322f0e47ab0567b2b88f.png Next we have a layout we've labelled MOUSE. This combines keyboard for movement/aiming and some actions, with mouse to rotate the camera, plus confirm/cancel and shoot/reload mapped to the mouse clicks (plus grenades on the wheel click, or E). Mouse support has been another requested feature, and this layout is similar to some of the Resident Evil HD layouts, so hopefully folks will find it useful. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44716389/beb8d1d051d3f032c8032b260f300c17b7889445.png Lastly, if you want, you can return to the old layout, now labelled ORIGINAL. Maybe you got really attached to it? Well, it's there for those who want it. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44716389/79340bb8296f8b9a94c41a7a0d6bcfad10799f38.png All three of these layouts can be selected in the Controls Settings menu from the title screen or pause menu. When using keyboard, you'll see the last two settings switch to keyboard-specific ones. You'll see we also added an option to use modern movement (rather than tank controls) on the keyboard - another requested feature. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44716389/82307328c56bb65ab1cc23e81b37f80675ba52b3.png One last (very minor) improvement is that if you have a controller plugged in, but start using the keyboard, you'll get keyboard controls shown. Previously controllers took priority over keyboard, now it just checks whatever you pressed last. The requested keyboard feature we haven't finished yet is full key rebinding. With the way the game is built, it's a lot more work than we'd thought, but this update lays a lot of important groundwork to make things easier. I hope we can get it fully working soon! A non-keyboard related update for this release - we've returned to compiling with mono rather than il2cpp. Thile il2cpp can result in slightly faster code execution, it doesn't have the mod and speedrunning tool support that mono does. So back we go! Sorry to the Crow Country speedrunning discord for having broken the autosplit for a while now, hopefully you can all enjoy running this up to date version at last. That's it from me. Thanks again, until next time! Tom-

New update adds Italian, Japanese, Korean, Chinese, plus optimisation!

SFBTomsteam_community_announcements

657d ago

Hello everyone! We've just released an update to the game that adds the promised new languages:

Italian
Japanese
Korean
Simplified Chinese
Traditional Chinese

We've also spent the last few months working hard on optimising the game, both for faster loading times and better performance. That means it'll run better on lower end machines, and even use less battery on the Steam Deck. We've had good reason to go after optimisation this strongly: we've also just launched Crow Country on Nintendo Switch! Plus, in just 6 days time, we'll be releasing on PS4. Like I said, Adam and I have been busy. And finally, a little teaser of some more exciting news coming very soon... {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44716389/48ad0eead62185af14a4aca733adf140f9924d76.jpg {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44716389/7696ef0e198499a59dc90c2cc5689731f25c655e.jpg What could it all mean...? Not long to wait! As always, thank you so much for your support for Crow Country, it's what's gotten us through the last few months. The updates aren't done, so stay tuned for more news! Tom & Adam

New languages and optimisation coming October 16th!

SFBTomsteam_community_announcements

671d ago

Hello everyone! Ever since launch in May, after we finished adding the Murder Of Crows hard mode to the game and ironing out bugs, Adam and I have been working on a big new update that adds new languages, and brings a whole heap of performance improvements! We're now finally ready to announce that the update will release on October 16th! That same day, we'll also be launching on Nintendo Switch and PS4, so it'll be a busy one for us! The new languages are: -Italian -Japanese -Korean -Simplified Chinese -Traditional Chinese As for performance, lower end computers and laptops should see framerate improvements across the whole game, and all computers should see an improvement in loading times between scenes. We have a few more surprises in store this month too, so look forward to news coming soon... See you October 16th! Tom-
