Quasimorph Technical Guide
Find the files, verify the platform claim, and separate current support from outdated forum advice.
Start with the symptom: use Save Location for Windows backups and restoration, Controller Support for input questions, Steam Deck for compatibility checks, and the mods guide when a workshop change caused the problem. Change one variable at a time and preserve the complete save folder before troubleshooting.
OFFICIAL GAMEPLAY
OFFICIAL GAMEPLAYQuasimorph Save Location
Close Quasimorph, paste `%USERPROFILE%\AppData\LocalLow` into File Explorer, then check the existing `Magnum Scriptum` and `Magnum Scriptum Ltd` folder variants for `Quasimorph` and any `Saves` child folder. Copy the complete Quasimorph folder to a dated backup before troubleshooting or restoring it.

OFFICIAL GAMEPLAYQuasimorph Controller Support

OFFICIAL GAMEPLAYQuasimorph Steam Deck Compatibility
Yes. Steam currently marks Quasimorph as Steam Deck Verified. Players can still prefer custom Steam Input layouts for tooltips, pointer-heavy menus, or faster access to keyboard-style commands.

OFFICIAL GAMEPLAYQuasimorph 1.0 Save Compatibility
If the save comes from the old pre-1.0 stable configuration, treat it as incompatible with the reworked Unstable/1.0 data and begin a new 1.0 campaign after preserving a backup. The developers said saves started during the Unstable beta were expected to remain playable in full 1.0 if no urgent conflict appeared, while also warning that at least one beta wipe was planned. For any uncertain or modded save, back up the complete folder and verify the exact build notes before loading it.
Read guide →An unexpected status appeared after a hit
- 01
Read the exact effect
In a September 2 alcohol-addiction report, a Steam Officer rejected the idea of an alcohol-based gun. The thread did not establish a final cause, so the timing of a hit alone is not a confirmed mechanic.
- 02
Record the recent state
Capture the status description, recent consumables, implants, pacts, mods and exact build. Distinguish an accuracy penalty from addiction rather than identifying an effect by its icon alone.
- 03
Preserve a reproducible case
Back up the save with the game closed and report the smallest sequence that reproduces the effect. Do not erase the campaign to test an unconfirmed explanation.
Technical topics covered
- Windows save-folder locations and safe backup steps.
