about the project
One of the coolest yet most difficult aspects of the project was the controller tailoring. Everything in the game and it's UI was thought out for the limited set of buttons available on a console controller and each player should be assigned to one controller. On the other hand, on PC we wanted a fully tailored experience where keyboard support must be fully supported; this brings up issues like having multiple players on just one keyboard, having almost all keys assignable, solving conflicting keys between multiple players, multiple keyboard layouts, typing for multiple languages, etc. On top of that, all of the UI had to support the keyboard as well as menu navigation and tutorials. It was quite a challenge, but looking at the end result it was definitely worth testing with over 10+ different input devices!
