I’m currently waiting for them to release a patch for it; my controller is a little fucked: The controller vibration seems to have stopped working. Also, it bugs out for me if I disconnect the controller when the game is running and reconnect: some of the buttons stop working.
UPDATE (2025-09-05T06:54Z): It turns out that the lack of controller rumble is fixable by forcing the use of Proton instead of running the native build [1].

IIRC, I did try that, but it caused my controller to cease functioning at all. Take that statement with a grain of salt though — I’d need to test again to verify.

If you are playing on Steam, try the native version but force Steam Input to enabled.
