Hey! Small update today. Mostly focused on getting controller support to work on general menus. UI programming for controllers is a doozy!

I'm also experimenting with a general pixelation effect on gameplay! Trying to reduce the sharpness of the game to give it the retro feeling I feel more confident in evoking.

It's a bit subtle at the moment since I don't want to rely on just a post process effect and will look at adding some noise textures to the environment.
