I used x360ce to map it to a ps2 controller. It's going well. I never liked the 360 controller that much to begin with, so it's not a problem.

DAY THREE Daylight broke unheeded upon the Warmsley Arms. No breakfast laid in the dining hall, no servant waking those few tenants who were still among the living. A pall of fear laid upon the hotel, stifling whatever good cheer the season might normally bring. Only one man was somewhat unaffected – the owner, Geeze, who was not about to let a werewolf problem cause his hotel to fail. “Must I do everything myself?” he wondered, as he folded the linen and laid it carefully in front of each door (the rooms being deadlocked to a one). Where on earth could the maid be? Probably sulking like all the others, he thought unhappily; how was this establishment to become a success if the help was so untrustworthy? Halfway through cleaning the lunch service, he decided that he had given SirNiko too much slack – the maid would simply have to buck up and help. “SirNiko?” he called through the door. By this time, several of the other guests had finally ventured out into the hallway and had gathered around. “What do I pay you for, man? Get out!” As he grew ever more annoyed with his evidently useless help, the other guests began to imagine a different explanation for the situation… Doctor Tanner, at last, ordered that the door be knocked down, and his fellows complied – only to reveal the gruesome and disturbing sight that they had been dreading would await they themselves. SirNiko, during the night, had been brutally savaged. Clearly, the danger was not over.

I am excited to see the drama that will erupt this year. Either way, I wonder if they'll enter Overgrowth again -- that game really needs some recognition. Apart from that, I don't really care; haven't been following anyone.
Maybe the Qasir devs will enter. That's a good in-dev game worth a few awards.

NIGHT TWO
The sun was going down; it was time to tally the votes. Each tenant gazed at the box with trepidation – the accused man could be any one of them, and who was to say that the last man lynched was even guilty? Fission Mailed was the only one with the courage to open it up, to count to votes… what few there were. “There is one here for Abraham,” he said, “and one for Nix.” His hands shook as he read out the names, but he slowly reached into his pocket and pulled out a sovereign. “Heads or tails,” he asked darkly.
Without even thinking, Colonel Nix rose from his seat and shouted that he would not stand for it; he was trusted, he had served his country, it was actionable – his normal steel nerve breaking, clearly, under the pressure of very personal danger. Abraham YG merely called heads… and for another pillow – the old rheumatism had returned, he said.
The coin rose in a shining arc, turning over and over. It spun… and dropped, the face of the queen obviously visible. From the back of the room, a shot rang out – Colonel Nix, it seems, had shot himself.
Under the circumstances, that seemed to be the end of it. The body was put with the others, and the now diminished party went to bed.

So you're arguing that it's ok for their game to look like shit because it will make the controls better, when making it run at 60fps would be fine and not affect anything assuming it's not coded in an idiotic fashion?
Did you know 60 fps is twice 30, so that the input is the same? It's a miracle of modern engineering!

They're both about the size of your avatar. So anyways... figured some stuff out about Mausoleum of the Giants, apparently a big, long numerical sequence of things; and *something* within it requires that I get the water works going. That has been a *tremendous* pain in the toochus. See, idiot me - after painstakingly pushing through that wet part where the bats BLEND IN WITH THE WATER (da fuq?) repeatedly, made the rookie mistake of going to the right and collecting that seal (of the four) first. This kinda made a platform around the moving ones disappear, and it would've been *really* helpful in getting the remaining seals; as Lemeza here has this terrible habit of getting knocked off of stuff or barely missing jumps, and having this geometrically precise landing angle right in the middle of "FUCK YOU." >.< (2-3 screens down, right into hyper-fishy which drops me in the poisonous drink.)  You're supposed to keep climbing once you get the seal so you can reach the top.

Yes, if you go fast enough you can land there and run around. It unlocks a reward!
