Steam Deck and controllers
“I'm a dev, and would not currently recommend it on the Steam Deck.” “It runs smoothly, but the controls are finnicky.”
From a developer's answer on r/Dressmaker about the Steam Deck
“The game doesn't have controller support at this stage. (The game isn't Verified.)” “You should be able to remap a button to zoom (Z or middle click) using a custom controller profile.”
From a developer's answer on r/Dressmaker about controllers
Controller support is on the studio’s list of post-launch work; see patch notes. Deck players in the same thread describe mapping middle click and Z, and one says sewing without Sewing Assist was a struggle; that setting is on getting 100% quality.
Languages
English, Simplified Chinese and Japanese, each marked on the store page as having full audio support.
