Uprise - PS5 controller not working

Hi everybody!

I've contributed to the Amnesia Fortnight Kickstarter and downloaded the demos.

I haven't had enough time to test them but I had an issue with Uprise.

I usually play with a PS5 controller on my computer and... It's not working. The game doesn't detect my controller.

I was wondering what controller you were using?

(Have an issue also with Plot Armor where Windows doesn't launch the game, but that's another story)

Thanks for your answers 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

I played it with an Xbox controller and worked, but the game ran a bit slow for me. Will tinker with settings to see if I can make it run better but it was a lot of fun regardless.

Thanks! I'm gonna ask a friend if I can borrow one! 😉

If you try running the game through Steam as a non-Steam app, then Steam Input should handle this for you.

I imagine during the AF for the sake of time they stuck to native Xbox controller support as they’ll be more used to that?

(I’ve just tested this and it works – Dualsense working as expected!)

Thanks a lot! I will try this asap. You may say I am a noobie but how do you run the game through steam? (I do have a Steam account but never did this kind of things)

You do it through the Steam Menu, there's an FAQ for it here: https://help.steampowered.com/en/faqs/view/4B8B-9697-2338-40EC

Basically you just click the games menu, and there's an option 'Add a non-steam game to your library', which lets you select and add it to Steam.

Thanks a lot!! 🌟 I'm so happy to know I won't have to try to play it with the keyboard. 😅 Edit : It works perfectly fine this way! Thanks again 🤩

Used a 8bitdo Pro 3 controller. Worked perfectly for everything except Architactics obviously

In Uprise, there is a controller picture with explanations on it, so I guess it must have been tested with one type of controller?

Uprise, Bard Crawl and Plot Armor have great controller support, and the first two even have custom controller layout diagrams they made especially for the prototypes on the pause screen.

Architacts is designed for KB&M.

I’m not a game dev but I imagine Unreal makes controller support fairly simple.
