Valley Peaks news & patch notes

Just a quick update to address some issues with the Steamdeck version of the game!

Miscellaneous

- Increased visibility of gamepad icons

If you’ve been playing Valley Peaks you’ve probably encountered several items you can collect - juice boxes, mushrooms, bones 👀 But now we bring you one more item to collect - Trading Cards!

MAIL TIME!

Ahead of the Valley Peaks release we commissioned several artists to create postcards for Valley Peaks in each of their own unique styles. We loved them so much we’ve decided to use them for our Trading Cards! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/43300267/91904acfe7a441122a8ea9f04452f3acc72494cc.png There are a total of 15 custom cards to collect. The cards will randomly be dropped in your inventory as you play the game. The more you play - the more cards you’ll collect. You can even trade with your friends! We’re also adding some new profile backgrounds and emoticons, so you can make your Steam Account look froggy fresh!

A new frog joins us in the Valley Peaks

You might remember our froggy contest from a while back before launch, where a ton of you submitted your amazing custom frogs. We finally added the winner, AtlasErisVT's Prince, into Valley Peaks, so make sure you drop by and say hi to them! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/43300267/5dc79cc86df5062f1e66bd70c039bc1d576e01ab.jpg As always thank you to our incredible community - we are thrilled to see so many of you enjoying our game.
