Hey Joshua, thanks for playing!
It’s weird that the controller support didn’t work, but then again this was my first try with adding it so I might have messed something up - it worked for me by using my xbox one controller directly with Windows (but don’t bother trying with the controller, movement would still be far too difficult).
Regarding the restart of the game - it starts from the beginning again since it is intended to be a timed-run sort of game where the time is global across all levels. So the time limit you see is not just for the particular level you’re playing but for you to manage to end all levels within it (plus the bonuses you get from dying / clearing a level).
Regarding your pet peeve, I completely understand (and somewhat relate to) it but, as you’ve noticed, without it the game would become impossible ahah
Anyway, I appreciate your feedback and like that you at least enjoyed the concept!
Cheers, Rui Rosário
Hey Rui, no problem! I think it was a problem on my end with the controller because a later game in the stream had the same problem, so it's probably fine. ^^
