Controller support

Controllers are supported, including the Xbox 360 Controller. However, it is not 'natively' implemented as in other games. Each action needs to be bound to a key, including the controls of each player in a multiplayer game.

Additionally, a controller will only be detected if it is connected before the game client is started.

Issues fixed

Framerate Issues

Multiple users report that there is stuttering or framerate problems on systems which greatly exceed the minimum specifications.[1] A fix may be to use a controller instead of the keyboard controls.

When the game is played in Windowed mode with Windows Aero on, the framerate seems to stutter. Playing in fullscreen fixes this problem.

Issues unresolved

Save Game Files Erased Or Corrupted

Multiple reports indicate that save games can be corrupted.[2]

Pixelated Or Low Resolution Cutscene Video

This is reportedly because the source video is low resolution and pixelated.[3]

Zoomed In Glitch

Multiple reports indicate a problem with the Ticklish Temples level Tricky Treasure, where the character appears zoomed in, that the environment cannot be seen properly.[4]

Diagonal movement

Reportedly there are problems with using diagonal controls, including keyboard diagonal movement and D-pad controls.[5] The best way to resolve this would be to use the analogue stick on a controller for movement.
