Interesting in concept and mechanics, but sadly at times more frustrating than fun, mainly due to inconsistencies in behavior, bugs or completely inexplicable occurrences. Overall I'd still consider the time spent mostly enjoyable.

Sadly the game was rendered virtually unplayable for me in august 2015, after the devs somehow broke controller support for some people and apparently decided seriously addressing the issue would be too much of a hassle.

Can not recommend a broken product.

Nowadays most game developers only implement support for the xbox controllers (xinput?).
My xbox controller has a camera spin bug on some games on my pc and it pisses me off that I can't use other controllers. And that Microsoft has such piss poor support for such a known problem.

@Alkali Ali - It's some no-name PS3 knock-off. Now you might think "yeah, well, of course...", but it worked perfectly fine until said update and, according to several threads & comments in the forums, the problem seems to affect various controllers. I get not supporting every type of controller, but this is a case of "removing" previous support to a point where not even the usual (and for every other game problem-free) emulation of an 360 controller makes a difference.

What controller do you have? Any how is it broken?

I also encounter bugs every now and then. Worst it that I've to repeat a map. But since they're rather short it's no biggie.
No controller support would piss me off though too ^^
