Preparing for the upcoming Steam Puzzle Fest I noticed a surprising amount of issues related to the input system, weither it is mouse and keyboard or controllers, so I decided to refactor it entirely. It is now more stable than ever and easier to manage any bugs related to it.
Every stutter weither it is player movement related or slab interaction have been fixed.
Visuals related to inputs have also been reworked, with new animations and designs.
Menus always have been looking a bit off compared to gameplay visuals, so I added proper buttons sprites. It is more readable, but the pause menu might need some more work on that regard.
