Analogue joystick/gamepad support

The Chicken Invaders 4 update is now live. It enhances the game's analogue joystick/gamepad support, so you can now control your spaceship using the thumb stick on your Xbox-style controller! Menus can now more easily be navigated with the D-Pad and the "B" button to go back, and cutscenes can be skipped altogether by pressing the 'menu' button (configurable in Options).

Up to 4 controllers are supported, with analogue bindings for players 1 and 2 as default. If you prefer the old digital-style controls (for example, if you also want to use the D-Pad in the game), you can set it up as usual through the keyboard menu (Options -> Controls -> Keyboard -> Player 1/2 Controls).

We've taken great care to upgrade your existing career, stats, achievements, keys, leaderboards, and local high scores (but we couldn't upgrade your in-mission progress, as we explained in our last post).
