I’ve tried playing with both keyboard and controller mapping. The game will randomly open the pause menu, flash the map menu, and then boot me out to the title screen. This happens every time
Hi Sam, sorry to hear you're having issues.
Can you check your controller set up since you're running it through DS4Windows?
The game uses Unity's new input system for both keyboard and gamepads so the code that runs when either are used is identical.
Are there any differences in your issue when you use an xbox controller as opposed to the PS4 controller?
The other thing you can try is rebinding the keys for the gamepad in the options menu, if you go to rebind a key it'll wait for any input before rebinding it so if you still have trouble there it might be a controller issue.
Would you mind posting a video of the video?
well I got it working adding the game to steam and enabling steam input and mapping keyboard controls there to my PS4 controller! Don’t have an xbox one. Must just be something weird with ds4windows
one glitch I still have - if i open the map and accidentally press left shift (the aim up button) it boots me to the title screen!
Glad to hear you got it working!
As for the the boot to the title theme when you hit Left Shift or L1, technically a feature but I implemented it rather poorly and then forgot about it.
The top left and right corners of the pause screen have L and R next to where they lead, it was supposed to be like in Metroid Zero Mission and Fusion where you can press the shoulder buttons to go to those menus.
I just checked and R for the Status Screen doesn't seem to be working (it's the A key on the keyboard currently and it switches back and forth between status and map screens when pressed) and L just boots you back to the title without warning.
Thank you very much for making me aware of this, it will be fixed in the next build where the R button will go to the status screen and the L will bring up a confirmation window to confirm or decline going back to the title theme.
I hope the rest of the demo is smooth sailing for you, but if it isn't please let me know I'm more than happy to hear any issues.
Have fun with the game, Demo 3 is coming soon!
Hello JiradTheRake,
This is not the case, the game is tested on Windows 10 and 11 with official Xbox controllers and they do not have the A button mapped to both jump and map button. If you're using third party controllers that aren't officially supported it might be different. It's also not possible to bind any inputs to the Pause and Map Screen via the in-game options menu, so it's more likely that something is wrong with the input device itself, you can open the README.txt file to see the full default control bindings in case your controller is tied to some software that causes it to emulate keyboard controls in case they're set to the same keys.
Try resetting the control bindings to default, and/or adding it to steam and enabling steam input like samthefireball did.
If you're still having issues please provide more information with any screenshots and videos where possible, thanks!
