Number of game pads supported?

How many controllers does the game support?
Has the game been tested with more than 4 XInput controllers on windows?
(If you need help testing this I have 8 Xbox360 controllers.)

It supports up to 8 controllers. I have tested with an Xbox 360, but not 8 of them and not on Windows. Shoot me an email and I'll give you an early-access key (on the condition that you test it with all your gear, on Windows). Deal? [e-mail]

It works!!!
Tested with 8 XBox360 controllers. I was actually expecting it not to work since that is the case with most games. Looks like you used DirectInput all the way so no issue with the XInput limit of max 4 controllers.

Managed to ready up 8 gamepad players and 1 keyboard player but when the level started there were 8 players. Guess the game is built around 8 players.

I'll add the game to our curator group's list of games supporting more than 4 players.

When I find the time I'll explore the game a bit more and see if I have som feedback.

EDIT:

There is a limit of 8 players. It should have prevented the ninth from clicking in at the first screen (but I didn't test that very hard, bugs are possible).

That is an awesome curator group! Very nice to have these very-multiplayer games listed somewhere. :)

Thanks!
