Calling all Rock Boshers! Linux build is now updated with fixes that allow the game to run on Steam Deck. When using Deck, its advised to set the controller to the XBOX type on the ingame settings screen, which you can access via the game main menu.

- Updated SDL to v3 ( fixes black screen when running game on desktop and steam deck )

- Updated Steam API to v1.62

- Updated mapping for xbox 360 controller ( see below, only real change is

handling of dpad in SDL v3 )

- Updated mapping for PS3 controller ( see below )

- Updated mapping for PS4 controller ( see below )

- Added support for removing and adding controllers whilst game running (

previously would need controller attached before starting game, note this

still doesn't handle multiple controllers )

- Fix for handling desktop scaling ( previously assumed x1 scale )

- Fix for issue where screen may swap without having drawn new frame ( this

would appear as flickering, as one buffer holds previous frame and the other

the current frame, bug in original release only noticeable on modern faster machines )

- Fix for pausing music when no music playing ( when backgrounding the game

window on the initial selection screen, the game would crash attempting to

pause music, but no music was playing )

- Fix for pausing music and game when opening steam overlay ( game and music

immediately resume once overlay is closed )
