Controller Support?

[zaXXon]

Hello. Has anyone this game already and can tell me if the XBOX360-Controller is supported?

We're going to add controller support after fixing some critical issues.
My personal opinion is that it's not the ideal way to play the game. Still, I can definitely see why people are demanding this and wouldn't like to exclude anyone just because they have different control preferences.

Thanks for planning to put controller support in. I like to play games on my couch alot of times, and using a keyboard and mouse just wouldn't work with that

thanks, my setup is just not keyboard and mouse friendly so controller support is a must. hope to see it soon.

Thanks! I'm purchasing as well based on this. Like others, I prefer a controller over k/m b/c of some RSI issues and the fact I program at work all day...

For those of you desperate for the ability to play this game with the Xbox 360 controller right now, here's a custom Pinnacle profile I created:

Link to profile - http://pinnaclegameprofiler.com/forum/showthread.php?28055-The-Swapper-Class-Alpha-Controllers

Also, If any of the devs are reading this, maybe my profile can give you some ideas on how to create an offfical mapping for the game? Below are some suggestions, which I made an attempt at adding in my profile, that might be useful for the official controller support:

- "Create Clone" on a toggle.
- Ability to cancel out of "create clone" mode without creating a clone (only relevant with the "toggle" idea).
- "Map" screen on a toggle.
- Always jump at full height, regardless of time spent holding the jump button.
- A button that instantly swaps to a clone when creating it.
- A button that creates a clone but still remains remains in "create clone" mode afterwards (only relevant with toggle).
- A button that instantly swaps to a clone when creating it, and still remains in "create clone" mode afterwards (only relevant with toggle).
- Close all screens with the "B" button, i.e. Pause Menu, Memory Log, Map, and Teleport screens.

P.S. I played the entire game using the controller. It's certainly a perfectly viable option, and I'm sure would be even more viable with official controller support.

Awesome thanks man!

This. My purchase was heavily dependant on controller support, I guess I'll just have to wait this one out.

Thanks for the reply! I'll be jumping in when that controller support comes. The game looks great, I'm looking forward to it.

And thanks a bunch to buddhacrane and tulextreme! I personally don't use those programs, but it's awesome that you did the work and shared it with people who can benefit from it.

thanks for the profile contributions guys! much apreciated

Very impressed, this is great game, but I'll buy this when developers add xBox 360 Controller Support.
Game controller is best experience to play platformers.
I'll never play platformers on mouse and kayboard anymore.

[Dima]

I hope it will come soon. There were already some patches/fixes for this game but the most important patch for me (joypad-support) is still not available :( - I start the game after every patch which is downloaded for it to check if it supports the 360-controller now, but no joypad-patch so far ...

Yeah, Im mostly a sofa big-screen-mode player, I've got the game, but ill be holding off on playing until Control support. Thanks for addressing it!

Come on guys, i bought this at purchase and you have still not patched in controller support, you do realise that a lot, or at least a decent share of steam users now use big picture mode and like controller support and kbm support in any pc game now.

I did set a profile myself using pinnacle, and it was very functional, there is no reason why controller should not be a valid control scheme.

Don't alienate potential customers.
