Would it be possible to use the D-Pad for moving left & right as well? It can be assigned for the "up" movement so I guess that it would be. Using an analog stick in a 2D world feels kind of wrong.
Yeah, that is really weird. It recognizes D-Pad "Up" as "LEVER UP" in configuration with the Anbernic RG P1.
D-Pads on my Xbox controller worked as did the one on the 8bitdo "SN30 pro".
On the 8bitdo M30 it didn't work and it recognizes D-Pad Left as "LEVER UP", doesn't let me use the other directions.
Pretty weird all in all. Luckily I have options.
