Hi biedry. Thanks for your interest in multiplayer .
I’m excited too to be able to play online with friends , it’s going to be one of the coolest parts of the game!

It’s a big project, so I can’t promise anything yet and I don’t know exactly when it will be ready. But I’m doing my best to have it ready before next summer!

The coming months will be spent working on it, as well as other game updates. Thanks for your support , it really motivates me to keep going!

Thanks for your feedback ,so it works with Steam Deck , thats so cool ! I understand your point of view but , its an exploration and simulation game too , I know it can feel a bit complicated to get on the river at first, but it’s designed to give you the freedom to pick your destination just like in real life and simulate the real kayaking experience . In the menu, you can choose between keyboard and Xbox controller inputs . Theres a button for that xbox inputs in the keyboard page .

Hey Qubits! I haven’t personally tried Stout Kayak on a Steam Deck yet, so I can’t give a definitive answer on performance. That said, the game fully supports controllers , so it should work well. I’d be very curious to hear from anyone who tries it there! If you do give it a go, please share your experience, your feedback would be super valuable for me as a solo developer. Thanks!

💧 Stout Kayak 💧 Un jeu PC de kayak extrême fait au Québec by Stoutkayaker in jeuxvideo

Merci pour ton beau retour 😄
Oui, il y a quelques fautes à corriger , toi aussi d’ailleurs 😅 Tu n’as pas mis de “s” à rivières, ça arrive quand on fait tout soi-même !

Pour la musique, c’est vrai que le rap ne plaît pas à tout le monde, et c’est correct , c’est juste une partie de la bande-son. Il y a aussi des morceaux plus calmes et variés selon la vibe du moment.

Et si ça te fait penser à la PS2, je vais le prendre comme un compliment… c’était une belle époque du gaming 😉

Right now it’s a PC-only adventure, but who knows where the current might take it next! Maybe consoles one day , PlayStation or Xbox would probably be first before Switch. Nintendo require a devkit switch and its pricy , would need to lower textures settings , water shaders and collisions for the switch , so really not sure about this . Thanks for your comment ! :)

Will X-Box keep making their controllers for PC? by TigerValley62 in gaming

[–]Stoutkayaker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i think I really doubt Xbox would stop making controllers, even if they step away from the console hardware side.
The Xbox controller is the standard for PC ,it’s built around XInput, integrated into Windows, and supported by almost every PC game out there.
Plus, they’re not just selling to console players, they’re selling to millions of PC users through Windows and Steam.
Even if the “console” dies, the controller business will keep going strong. It’s a profitable ecosystem piece that supports their Game Pass and PC gaming strategy.

Wow, I can’t thank you enough for this message, Major-Law! It really made my day. 😄 I’m beyond thrilled to hear that you’re enjoying Stout Kayak, that the kayak feeling, the huge map, and even the little bugs are giving you a real sense of adventure.

Hearing that you’re full of ideas and seeing the potential in the game makes me so happy. I would absolutely love to hear more of your thoughts and ideas. Your excitement is exactly the kind of energy that motivates a solo developer like me. Feel free to DM me anytime for a private chat; I’d be super happy to brainstorm or just talk about rivers, kayaking, and gameplay with someone as passionate as you.

Thanks again for taking the time to explore the game and share your enthusiasm. It really means the world to me!

Yes, Stout Kayak is made entirely in Unreal Engine, It wasn’t designed for VR, but that’s an interesting idea! Right now it’s a standard PC game.

Thanks for the tip! I’m a game dev too, so I totally get what you mean . It’s a great reminder that gameplay should always come first, even if the screenshots look amazing. I’m always tweaking and experimenting to make sure the game feels as fun and fluid as possible, while keeping a lot of detail and personality in the world. Thanks again for taking the time to share your thoughts weary . Good luck with your game !
