Wacom tablet problems
Tried playing with a Wacom tablet, Intous 4 and it doesn't work. I think controls are inverted but also, hammer is at max top or right position. I was unable to move it around. I saw that there is a fix comming soon for inveted controls but I don't think it will solve this problem.
I will try a little more and post if anything changes.
Merry Chistmass and happy New Year!

this problem where the hammer is stuck between maximum top or right position happens when using wacom pen. When I use wacom mouse on the tablet, it works fine but controls are still inverted.

try turning off left-handed mode (or turn it on if it's currently not on). Also a lot of people who complain of inverted controls are expecting the mouse to move the pot... it moves the hammer.

Hello Bennett, I know you only control the hammer in the game XD
I did try playing around with settings:
when using wacom pen, toggling left handed and right handed mode does fix inverted controls but only on one axis and the issue still remains: Hammer is between maximum top and right position comparing to the pot. If a hammer was a clock hand it would always be between 1 and 3 o'clock. It does move, but only in that range.
I was able to verify, using precision mode on the tablet, that the pen is able to reach any postion on the screen and even so, the hammer was still stuck. Wacom mouse does work like a regular mouse. I would also add that while useing pen, I tried disconnecting all other pointer periferals, mouse and laptop touchpad.

I have a wacom tablet too and it doesn't work right either. I have to plug in a regular mouse every time I want to play

I have an older tablet (Intuos 3) but I've also noticed that behavior (hammer sticking to upper right) in pen mode. In mouse mode, though, y axis is inverted but I can do a full 360° traversal. Are you sure you are in mouse mode?
when you are in mouse mode, pen works, but it works like a mouse. Position is not absolute. that would be the benefit of the pen mode.

I have to play this game with a tablet now.

Sorry, I'm a little bit confused, did you want absolute control over hammer positioning by using pen mode?
yes. Tablet pen should be able to implement this but its not working. I wounder if laptop trackpads with absolute position would be able to work.

It is not posible. It's easier with a regular mouse at this point.

Hey, I wanted to bump this because it's more than two years later, and someone I know is hitting the exact same problems, with no solution in sight.

From my experience developers of unity games almost never address this issue. Just tell your friend to get a cheap logitech mouse and play it with that. That's what I did.
