It is so good to see this game has returned to gog, so i can finally get a digital copy. It 'will be a great companion to my physical version i bought 20 years ago. :)

But first it needs Controller support. As soon as it gets it i'll throw my money your way. :D

I have Steam Controller and mostly i do this to have controller support:
Try add game to steam and launch big picture mode and rebind keys to what You need. Mayby remap other controllers works too.

I'm not using steam, so i think that's not a way i can go :)

I experimented with tools like JoyXoff on other games, and though I think they work great with some games, it's still not optimal for others. The developers said in the FAQ that there is the possibility they'll add native controller support, so i thought i should express my interest in this specific matter ;)

Antimicro works, but there seems to be a half-way coded baked in controller support. Without any wrapper, you should be able to use your D-Pad to navigate menus (not enter choices, but go up and down). With a wrapper you get some funky results for Turn left and turn right if they're mapped to your left analog stick. The D-Pad also randomly activates movement even when no movement is mapped to the button press. So there is something there, but I don't know if they would remove it or expand upon it (I hope they do 1 or the other so I can use my controller)


EDIT to ADD that the original release here does not suffer from these issues.

Using a wrapper definitely sounds like a good option! I didn't buy the new release so far so i couldn't try it with JoyXOff (it's a tool where you can map buttons to keys like you described for AntiMicro), but I'm sure it will work nicely. But nothing beats native controller support, so let's see if the developers will come up with it :)
