The release-1.5 branch mainly adds a new menu interface called Gamepad UI. This is the same UI which was added to Half-Life 2 and Portal to support the Steam Deck. Its source code was recently published on GitHub, so we've decided to integrate it into Entropy : Zero 2 alongside the other Steam Deck-related changes added in release-1.4.
Gamepad UI was mostly designed to be used for the Steam Deck alone, but since it has several major advantages over the default UI, we're currently aiming to use it as a universal menu replacement for all users. Note that this may be subject to change depending on the feedback we receive.
If you would like to test out this new update, please set your Entropy : Zero 2 beta branch to "release-1.5". For more information about upcoming beta branches, please check out our Entropy : Zero 2 version guide.

If you need to use the default menu again, you can currently do so by going into the game's properties and typing "-nogamepadui" in the game's launch options.
