Anodyne Remastered Has Released!
Visit a dream world in 60 FPS and more...
Happy to announce that I finally released the remaster for Anodyne on PC, Mac and Linux on all Desktop platforms (Steam, GOG, Itch, Humble). It’s a free upgrade for all owners! The game’s also on sale at Steam/Itch for a week. Console versions coming 2024/5.
This has been a long time coming. Anodyne has a variety of issues with its original release on PC and it being future-proof has always been a worry. But thanks to me open sourcing Anodyne in 2020, some fans made a conversion of the game from Flash Actionscript 3 to C# called “AnodyneSharp”. After they finished, Ethan Lee over at FNA converted it to work with Steam: .
Last month I reached out to Ethan and we spent a little time finishing up the port and fixing a few things with the conversion, before finally calling it a “Remaster”. As the console port has a handful of issues I plan to update them in 2024 or 5 whenever the new Switch comes out (and I get access to publishing on it.)
The game is almost exactly the same, intentional glitches included. For the curious, details of the changes are on Steam. The biggest changes are that the game support 60 FPS, supports Linux, Steam Deck, all controllers, and has a boss rush!
If you don’t already own it it’s a great time to pick the game up. And if you do own it, you could try revisiting it!
In the meantime, we’re working on putting together the Anodyne 1 Fan Zine we collected responses for back in February. Look forward to that hopefully this year!
Yesssss! I loved Anodyne 2 and this is such a perfect excuse to dive into the original now! I'm so excited, you're a legend for this
