Deep Dish Dungeon release, platforms and demo limits

The October 30 patch mostly fixes backpacks, death packs, saves and multiplayer. Death packs from ordinary dry-land deaths now stay where you died, with a small nudge onto nearby ground, so waiting to respawn or moving props no longer shifts them.

Behold Studios still lists these as known issues: a large upward jump of the backpack is under investigation, a pack on a high shelf in the Crypt is hard to reach though its contents are preserved, and some rare older saves may hold stranded packs it can't safely recover. Items already stuck behind walls in the fungi area may stay there, because the new load-time recovery only covers confirmed stranded death packs. Kingy hasn't tested this patch.

The October 23 hotfix validates player position when saving and loading; invalid positions respawn at camp. It fixes the Temple void near the statue and Vine Heart and saves failing because an item has an invalid world position.

Death packs and backpacks below the world return to camp or spawn. Death packs float in water, and an airborne death places the pack on the last solid ground. The patch also fixes dropped-backpack placement for clients and carried backpacks falling through the world. These are developer statements; recovery of an existing lost pack has not been tested by Kingy.

The developer’s launch FAQ gives the price as $14.99, €14.99, £13.99, 59 yuan or 1,900 yen. The October 13 launch post says the game is 15% off for launch; Steam’s store data showed US$12.74 (15% off) on launch day. The discount’s end date is not stated, so check your store before buying. The game is also in Game Pass from day one.

The launch FAQ lists Steam (PC and macOS), Xbox Series X|S, Xbox on PC, Xbox Cloud Gaming and Game Pass from day one. Crossplay works across those platforms, so a Steam player and an Xbox player can share a run. Other platforms are being worked on but none is confirmed.

The publisher also announced Xbox Play Anywhere and Xbox handheld verification. Kingy has not tested Game Pass access in any region or crossplay in practice.

Behold Studios and Raw Fury’s September 30 notice reports Steam Deck verification and links Steam’s compatibility listing. This is separate from the previously announced Xbox handheld verification. It supplies no frame-rate or battery-life measurements, and Kingy has not tested either device. Steam now marks the full game released on October 13; this compatibility announcement is not a new performance test.

Patch 1.0.47.0 (October 15) makes the game start in native fullscreen on Steam Deck instead of a leftover window size. If the game opened in a small window on Deck before the patch, update it and relaunch.

The developer’s launch FAQ says every gameplay action can be rebound on keyboard and mouse and on controller, all widescreen ratios including ultrawide are supported, and controller support is in and still being improved. It lists 12 languages at launch, including English, Brazilian Portuguese, French, German, both Spanish variants, Japanese, Polish, Russian and Simplified and Traditional Chinese.

Patch 1.0.47.0 (October 15) adds the rotation buttons to controller prompts and fixes controllers not being detected in the Xbox app version on PC. It also translates several messages that showed only in English, such as “Mechanism is blocked by something”.

Kingy has not checked these settings in the game.

Patch 1.0.50.0, posted on Steam on October 21, is the second patch since launch. Its biggest change: you keep your backpack when you die, and the host can pull a lost unique treasure back from the catalogue, which the developer says clears a progression lock caused by losing a unique item. Tools such as the Hammer, Pickaxe and Axe can still be crafted again at the workbench.

Patch 1.0.47.0 (October 15) was the first patch and lists 11 fixes. Neither patch says items already lost to earlier bugs come back on their own; use the catalogue for unique treasures. Report problems with screenshots or video to the Raw Fury Support Desk, as the launch FAQ asks. Kingy has not tested either patch.

Patch 1.0.50.0 (October 21) makes bats weaker but slower to come back, and limits several cooked meals to one per slot. Older guides and videos that show the earlier numbers or crafting spots predate this patch. Kingy has not tested these values.

The separate Steam demo page lists Windows system requirements only. The full game's released Steam listing lists both Windows and macOS requirements, but that does not make the current demo a Mac download or prove an installed Mac build works. Check the separate demo listing for your device before planning a session. Kingy has not installed either build.

The demo is designed as a nonlinear slice with multiple paths, secrets, resources, crafting and cooking. Its June update adds a save system and a deeper cooking loop. Because the larger puzzles and bosses are withheld, the end of available demo content is not proof that a missing full-game route is broken.

Keep notes about useful tools, food and unresolved questions. Keep the demo label attached to any quantities or route instructions. Demo progress does not transfer to the full game, which is now out, so start a fresh save and treat demo notes as background.
