Cursebound: action adventure released natively for Linux in version 1.0

Cursebound has left Early Access and is out in version 1.0 - for the first time with a native Linux version.

In this action adventure you play a god walking among humans to break a deadly curse, in a world blending 2D pixel art and 3D low-poly landscapes. The current price is €5.61 (regular €7.49, 25% off for the first week).

Highlights: the full story, new bosses, Endless Mode and four new achievements. More in the announcement on Steam:

The full story Follow Verdigris all the way to the end of his quest to break the curse. Explore new corners of the world: the haunted forest of Rootbound, a castle fallen to darkness, and places I won’t spoil here. Meet new companions and face the truth behind the curse.

New bosses A towering forest king, a martial master, a dungeon-dwelling evil wizard and more, each with their own phases and tricks.

Endless Mode Survive wave after wave in the Celestial Gardens, by day or by night. Choose a blessing between waves and see how far you can go. Finish the story to unlock a second playable god.

Now on Mac & Linux Native macOS (Intel and Apple Silicon) and Linux versions, alongside Windows.

New achievements Four new achievements to earn, from your first full combo to conquering Endless Mode.

Controller & menus Clear highlight on whatever is selected when playing with a controller. Change resolution and graphics quality with left/right, no list needed. Back now steps out one menu level at a time.

Progression & combat Stat upgrades now go up to level 20, with a gentler curve. Existing saves are converted automatically. A one-time hint now tells you when you can spend gold on upgrades. Enemy attacks now match their animations more closely: no more hits from beside or behind a swing. Smoother, more consistent mouse and controller camera turning. Many bug fixes and quality-of-life improvements.

Launch discount To celebrate, Cursebound has a new lower price and is 25% off for the first week!
