I decided one day while sitting on my couch streaming steam games to my TV that Sanguinite would be an awesome couch game. This update focuses on adding full controller support to the game; all gameplay and UI navigation should be functional with a controller now. I think flying drones with analog input feels great and is the superior way to play the game. There are still some rough spots in the UI that need to be addressed-- any and all feedback is welcome! This is also a great step towards Steamdeck compatibility and (very long-term far future) possible porting to other systems.
I've only tested using an XBox controller, but the game theoretically should be compatible with any controller. There's no button mapping yet, although that's definitely a future goal (for keyboard + mouse as well).
Along with controller support, "rover" type enemies that previously and mysteriously were able to drive around sideways on cavern walls have been converted to proper upright rovers that drive on the cavern floor. Good luck, Envoys!

Sanguinite is a lunar-lander-meets-twin-stick-shooter action game with elements of resource management and exploration. Visit the surface of alien planets using remotely operated drones, searching for resources and artifacts to bring back to your ship. Encounter hostile forces with your initially under-equipped hardware. Research advanced alien technology and integrate it into your own while you investigate the nature and origin of the aliens you encounter.

Faced with global annihilation, humanity was able to unite long enough to execute the Exodus projects. Colony ships filled with passengers in stasis undertook centuries long journeys to escape. Specially designed Envoy vessels were sent far ahead of the colonists to scout and secure potential new homes, each operated by a single pilot. This is your task. Equipped with a fleet of standard issue Beryl drones and a universal fabricator to maintain them, you will conduct exploratory surface missions to acquire resources and investigate your target system. In the unlikely event of a hostile encounter, you will need to improvise. Your Envoy is primarily a scientific and industrial vessel, after all.
