Hi everyone,
Liberation came out a week ago and I'm pleased to upload the first big post-release patch. This is largely based on feedback from the [community at Space Game Junkie](www.spacegamejunkie.com). Thanks for your suggestions!
Please note, gamepad support is really only for xbox one (or similar) controllers at moment. It might not work with other type of controllers/layouts. This is the next big issue I want to tackle. Delivering better gamepad support (maybe even remapping) is the dream but it is not something I can rush.
