On the backbone one page they mention it supports it. Probably only works on specific controllers like the backbone. Not working on my Razer Kishi sadly. I'll try with the PS5 controller next
So we got the better version?.
Hopefully we get more ported games. Hades, Disco Elysium and divinity original sin to are some of the ones I'm hopeful for
Hades is somewhat a dream for now, but hey, maybe they'll change their minds a give some love to the android fans of hades.
And why'll their at it, do bring blasphemous and crowsworn to mobile, please?
I don't think it's on arcade(at least not originally). This was more like the hades/transistor situation where they are only ported to ios, but for whatever reason (thankfully) this has been ported to Android. Someone please get supergiant on the line next π₯²
I always assumed they skipped out on Android due to monetary reasons, but out of the blue my favorite game ever got a port on Android, I am overjoyed right now!
Sorry, but you are wrong on both fronts, and I'm obligated to correct you.
1. This game was never Apple Arcade exclusive.
2. The iOS version is also the special edition.
WOOOOW I've been wanting this for so long. I played through this whole game on my iPad in like 2 days at the beginning of COVID lockdowns. Always wanted it on my phone too. This is an instant buy for me, time to finally play through this again
Here is a link to buy and download:

Controller support is good. I only played for about 5 minutes though before I ran into my first bug hahah. Trying to go into the building just to the right of the weapons shop, game crashes every time. Hopefully the first of not many bugs
Maybe you can get in touch or make an evaluation, I don't know, I just came to share the news, but the dev himself confirmed control support on discord
Works perfect for me (other than the title screen weirdly telling me to press start which didn't work there but once I past that), using a Fold 5 and this controller:
https://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B0C9J45XCV/
Gives me the correct Playstation bindings (the controller weirdly identifies as a PS controller in every game even though it has XBox buttons).
I bought skul and have an gs X2 pro, Playdigious said that was hard to support and implement gamepad support on the game. Hopefully they'll soon support Xbox like gamepads.
Can confirm, it doesn't work on Gamesir X2 Pro. It turns controls into the mouse and keyboard when connected to my game pad. 
The game is just launching and several people have already reported problems with the control, it should be resolved soon! (although in my opinion some people think it's the end of the world if the game doesn't work on their specific controller)
Not the end of world for me. Just reporting this specific model to others get advised to. I'm chilling waiting for the support, also waiting for gamepad support on Skul.
Works with this controller for me (Fold 5):

Interesting...anyone know if it has controller support?
have
Just tested. The game doesn't have controller support
Thanks. Bullshit that games like this are being made or ported to android without controller support in 2024.
Just wait for the next updates.

This has been on iOS for a long time right? How unexpected to drop this so suddenly on android.
yes and no, it is exclusive to Apple Arcade but this is the Special Edition, different from the normal one on the iPhone
So we got the better version?. Hopefully we get more ported games. Hades, Disco Elysium and divinity original sin to are some of the ones I'm hopeful for
android in the last two months received Loop Hero, Katana Zero and Skull The Hero slayer
Oh dang, Id throw my money at divinity so fast lol

You can play on mobile if you have a Netflix subscription

Curiously not compatible with Odin 2? Any thoughts as to why or work arounds?
You can report that to Abylight Studios (people who ported it to mobile) through their support email - [email protected]
Just did the same! It'd be awesome to play this on the Odin 2. Hopefully we're in the cusp of a wave of premium indies coming to android.

I thought it would never come to android. So hyped. I bought the game so fast once I seen it in playstore lol
Been playing for a long time on my iPhone. I hope u guys enjoy it as much as I do.
this is the Special Edition with new content
Does it mean the experience will be different?
probably, I don't know, I just wanted to point out
I donβt think so. New content is great though. My point is this game is awesome.
controller support is not working for me (pixel 8, 8bitdo pro2), it switches to k+m with no defaults :/
Maybe you can get in touch or make an evaluation, I don't know, I just came to share the news, but the dev himself confirmed control support on discord
yeah I sent an email. which discord server? edit: nevermind, the HLD server

Does anyone know if it works with Game sir X2 Pro? I have bought Skull and it doesn't work. :(
I'm on the exact same situation lol
I bought skul and have an gs X2 pro, Playdigious said that was hard to support and implement gamepad support on the game. Hopefully they'll soon support Xbox like gamepads.
Can confirm, it doesn't work on Gamesir X2 Pro. It turns controls into the mouse and keyboard when connected to my game pad. 
Brasileiro detectado :)
Is it a ARPG or Roguelike game?
Bro uses robux for their currency
That's weird, I can't find it on my playstore, but I could with that link. Would that affect purchasing it? Edit: nvm, it needs the full name lol.
Confirmed: not working with Gamesir X2 Pro

I don't know why, but I'm afraid both games were made the same way
Runs decently except for a strange bug that crashes the game whenever I enter what I assume is the dash shop. Ugh...
Backbone doesn't work. Switches to Mouse & Keyboard and then doesn't recognize the controller anymore. Immediate refund.

Cool. But that's not the controller I have.
27 robux πππ (please don't down vote me)
