The Story So Far
Barony tells the story of an undead lich named Baron Herx, who terrorized the town of Hamlet in a previous life and is now holding out in a vast subterranean complex known as the Devil's Bastion. As a single hero or a group of adventurers, it is your mission to descend the depths of his abode, confront him in his hellish lair, and destroy him forever. Whether you will simply meet your doom in the dungeons as many have before you or rise to victory against the Baron and his hellspawn is ultimately up to you.
Heads up!
We have a Steam Controller Configuration set up for Barony! You can currently find it in the Barony Steam Controller Community Configurations list.
The Steam Controller interface has given us an opportunity to prototype gamepad-style controls with ease, and I'm happy to report that the game feels at home on the couch. We're excited to share some early-stage results with you. The touch-menu for the hotbar works great, and Appraising is a snap.
Note this configuration is optimized for a 720p setup. At this point, the reason is 100% because of the UI size being unreadable from a couch distance at 1080p for most players (something we'll work on more in the future), but it will function fine at higher resolutions.
There's a little more effort to put in on our end before the game recognizes this as the "official" configuration, but it'd be great to hear what you guys think at this stage!
I realize many players aren't into the Steam Controller and want standard Gamepad support! Believe me we haven't ignored that fact and there's more we hope to do for you guys in the future. But if you're on the edge about a Steam Controller, my experience with Barony makes me happy to recommend it.
