I'm running this on my mac, and I'm trying to get it to recognize either my 8Bitdo gamepad or my PS4 controller and they're not working. Is there anything I can do?

Hey, thanks so much for writing! Hmm, I'm trying to think of the best way to troubleshoot this. I believe Gamemaker: Studio (which BIT RAT is built in) has somewhat limited controller support in OSX. The documentation suggests only xbox 360 and ps3 controllers are fully compatible. On Windows there are utilities that map DirectInput from basically any controller to XInput (Gamemaker's "preferred" input manager), but a quick Google search suggests there is no immediate analogous solution for Macs.
Are you able to access a 360 or PS3 controller? I know it's less than ideal, but worst case there's always the keyboard :/
Hope this helps a bit! Sorry I can't offer a more concrete solution. Let us know what you try!
