Best with controller?
Just installing now and before I start I wondered if this played better with a controller or keyboard please.
Cheers

Both work, but I'd recommend a controller if you have one!

Cheers. I just installed and the default controls are horrible (cursor keys?!). So a PS3 controller it is then.

Well, I have a PS3 controller working well with it.

How do you enable gamepad/joystick support? I have a PS2 gamepad connected through USB that works like a charm with everythign else I play, but this game doesn't seem to detect it?

I've also installed and tried x360CE and still no controller options...

I've been using a PS3 pad with the DS3 Tool software. It involves downloading some drivers from Motionjoy.com and then installing the DS3 Tool. Within that software I need to select the 360 pad option apparently but it seems to work on the PS3 pad I have plugged in.

Game changes HUD between keyboard and controller on fly so it's pretty easy to test out both and shows every control on pause menu (directly at there and shows position on HUD without need to go under control menu!). SO many games fail to do this on fly or even at all even if they support both control methods! I love these devs even if they are swedish :8bitheart:

I may be a pc gamer through and through, but wouldn't touch a 2d platformer without a controller.
PS. Devs if you're listening, thanks for binding the dpad by default. I shouldn't even half to say that, but these days probably more than 70% of devs seem to think we all want to use the bloody analog stick. More often than not the dpad is just dead, and sometimes you can't even manually rebind. Its easily my number one gripe with indie gaming, and I've made it a personal crusade to negatively (or in this case positively) reinforce this as much as possible.

Why do people ask questions which the answers to cannot be provided by others?
Keyboard vs Controller depends on what YOU like.
Stop wasting time and forum space, and just try both and see which you like better.

Play Shank 2 and then you'll know ;-)

Why are you even here, if it's such a waste of time for you?
There are plenty of games that play ok with a keyboard, and some that play horribly.
