Controller Support Alpha Test - Now Live!

As promised, the Controller Support Alpha is now live!

We know controller support is something many of you have been asking and waiting for, so it's great to finally be at the point where we can share it with the community. It's taken us a while to get here, and we want to thank everyone for their patience while we've been working on bringing full controller support to Len's Island.

Now that it's ready for public testing, we'd love for you to try it out and share your feedback with us. Having more players experience controller support across different playstyles and devices will help us deliver the best possible experience before its full release.

How to Access the Alpha

The Controller Support Alpha is available to everyone through a public Steam branch. There's no sign-up required; simply follow these steps to access it:

1. Open your Steam Library and right-click Len's Island.
2. Select Properties.
3. Navigate to the Game Versions &Betas tab.
4. Under Beta Participation, select alphatest from the dropdown menu. Steam will automatically download the alpha version of the game.

(Important) Back up your save files before playing the beta test, just in case something goes wrong.

1. Go to the main menu and hit play
2. In the game select screen, click "Open Files" on the top right
3. Copy the entire folder with your Steam ID and paste it somewhere else in your computer as a backup. All done!

Your Feedback Matters

We'd love to hear what's working well, what doesn't feel quite right, and anything you think could be improved. Whether it's a small control adjustment, an awkward menu interaction or a bug you've encountered, all feedback is welcome. This is our opportunity to make sure the game feels perfect on controller and Steam Deck before the full release.

After your play session, please take a few minutes to fill out our Feedback Form: Controller Support Alpha Feedback Form If you encounter any bugs, please submit them to our bug form: Bug Report Form

Thank You!

We know this feature has been a long time coming, and we genuinely appreciate everyone who's been waiting patiently. We're really pleased to finally be bringing full controller support to Len's Island, and we hope it makes the experience even more enjoyable for those of you who prefer playing with a controller.

Thanks for taking the time to be part of the alpha test and help us get this feature ready for everyone. We're looking forward to hearing your feedback!
