Controller not working. Not possible to play cooperative as they promise.

Time for a refund.

Which type of controller do you have? The game should support any XInput-compatible controller just fine.

Thanks for replying
it is a gamepad type of controller that works fine with other games. I have also played around with what whas its name x350ce to configure "old gamepads" with new windows compatibility following x-box architecture or something like that to try to fix it but couldn't. Also couldn't play with mouse or other method. I just wanted the game to play with my son but seems there is no way.

Yeah, if the controller doesn't innately have XInput support, then it won't work without a utility like x360ce. However, I don't really have any experience with any of those tools so, sadly, I can't really help get them set up.

If it gets set up properly, though, it should enable it in Procyon.

But, yeah, I'm sorry I don't really have any experience with those utilities (except for using DS4Tool a bit on my PC with my PS4 controller, which worked fine once I got it properly set up).



As for the mouse: I made a decision to not support it on its own as a controller because the game requires four buttons to play properly (fire bullets, fire beams, use shield/powerup, lightning attack), and most mice only have three usable buttons - plus having a button that you can hold down while firing (the shield/powerup button) is a very tall order on a mouse.

You can, in keyboard/mouse mode, set the whole thing up to use just mouse buttons if you want, but unfortunately that doesn't help you set up a second player on the keyboard. For multiplayer, it's basically XInput-compatible controller for one of the players or nothing.

If you ever manage to get your gamepad working as an XInput device (or you end up with a newer gamepad that supports XInput), I hope you give Procyon another shot!
