Thanks for your swift answer. Got the invaders game too. :-)

I tried with an Xbox One controller, and several different 8bitdo controllers, to no avail.

First I thought I might have connected the controller after loading up the game, so exited, connected, reloaded the game but can only use the keyboard. It's perfectly playable that way, but perhaps not as comfortable as with the controller.

Thanks! <3

And the gamepads... Umm, it's pretty weird.
It is possible that you have a program like Xpadder open or something like that that messes the inputs of the gamepads?

So, after much searching, it turns out the culprit was having Xbox configuration support "on" in Steam settings. If one turns it off, all works fine. :-)
