Feedback is essential for us to successfully add new features and improve Dorfromantik together with you. Of course, it helps us a lot if you are specifically trying to test features that we have listed up in the Beta Patch Notes for the current update.

🧪 Beta: If you also want to test new features earlier and help with your feedback the development of Dorfromantik, then find out here how you can participate in the public beta.

Hey there everyone!

We just wanted to say Thank You! to everybody who has provided feedback since release, and apologize Comms went a bit more silent.
Truth be told we have been, and still are, busy as bees! We're not quite ready to talk about what lies in the future for Dorfromantik, and Toukana as a studio but rest assured, we'll have more to talk about soon™! Implementing proper, full controller support has also been a bit more of a fight than we would have liked. As it turns out, not quite as straight-forward as mapping controls to some additional buttons.

We are very interested in feedback for all sorts of controllers. From the good old 360 Pads, to Dual Sense, Pro controllers and, if you're a masochist, your Community Toukan would love some reports about playability with Rockband/Guitar Hero instrument controllers!
