Hello once again,
DESYNC Patch #10 is live now!
It's been a long time coming, but we've finally introduced the ability to play DESYNC with a controller! Any controller should work, in any configuration, and you'll have the ability to swap between controller and kb&m instantly and hopefully without issues.
We've also introduced a bunch of bug fixes, and again have massively improved performance across the board. One issue that has plagued the game for a while are micro-stutters in later levels, and those have finally been eliminated.
I'd like to thank the following people for giving up some of their free time to help test this patch, as without their help this wouldn't have happened!
