Hi team, first off, congratulations for this awesome game, my son and I are really into it, we love it. 

is there a way to play it with a joystick / controller ?

I am able to pair a PS4 controller with my laptop, but I dont think we can play the game with it.. or is there a way?

I am software developer myself, so if there is something I can help with, pls reach out! I have no experience building video games but i have quite some experience on web development.  

Cheers!
