emm...ok, I've got two gamepads connected, fully operational.

I press any button, and main menu is gone, the message:  PRESS Start to JOIN and a black rectangular at the 3/4 bottom of the screen.

Windows 10. What controller setup do you exactly use to play?

Hmm, I've tested with Windows 10 and xbox controllers. Did nothing happen after you pressed start? It should spawn a blue square. 

Btw, thanks for taking the time to try it, I really appreciate it :-)

Nothing happens, only this : the music starts, and no blue player one-block. :(

What controllers are you using? It could be that the start button is bound differently.

digital USB game pads.

There's no specific start , pause or whatover. Every button is generic and let the app to map or assume its existence.

This model for instance: https://www.tiendatec.es/ocio-y-tiempo-libre/videojuegos/mandos/617-zone-evil-ze...

Wow, that's an amazing price. Yeah, I don't know how a custom mapping would correspond, I used InControl which automatically maps common controllers based on the operating system. Reading the documentation on InControl, it sounds like it might be an issue particularly with the start button. I've just set it up so that it will accept any input to spawn the character, given that you could get through the intro screen, that should work (at least for the adding of a new player, I've no idea how the rest of the bindings will correspond). Thanks for all the time you've spent, it's been super helpful and I've learnt a fair bit.

So you have to push other player off the screen or make them fall. Until only stands a winner.

Looks pretty promissing, also the music chiptune's style is great.

I'm alone in my flat, so...I'm going to pretend to plug another gamepad and play.

Anyway! i'm going to rate it high! nice idea.
