Don't you have a usb pad? I have a Logitech dual shock that I use. I think it was like $10 or $15 new.


EDIT: I found this for you!

I'm loving this game as well...I never would have known about it had it not beea daily deal though. The pixel art was enough to sell me, as I'm a sucker for that art style, but the game is so flipping fantastic to boot. The coop mechanic is great, where if one person survives everyone else can come back. It helps me and my friends bond instead of just yelling at each other for dying :)

I played through the campaign, but I'll have to play some more to see if I can get any high scores up! :)

This game really is amazing, definitely worth the small cost.

I thought this was gonna be about Jonestown, felt pretty stupid once I read the title properly.

The only way to deactivate the ray beam and fight back the vampire alien threat is with a complicated series of foot patterns on the device's control board that looks remarkably like a DDR pad. We will all praise this man for saving our lives and buy him a mountain of stuffed animals.

A Jonestown shooter would be morbid and awesome.

I stupidly bought the DLC without even thinking about it assuming there was going to be at least one new level to play. It's just three new ships though, nothing more. Granted, the ships do change up the gameplay and they are more fun to fly than some of the older ones (I still like Beam the best), but this is a pretty minor upgrade.

The big news is really that the Jamestown soundtrack is available for $5 now! 8)
