Optimal Gamepad Configuration
Vytvořil: smænch
If you're as sick of the ASZX controls as I am, here is an ideal setup for gamepad support, since the game's premade config sucks.

Introduction
Shantae: Risky's Revenge - Director's Cut is a great platforming game, but is sadly butchered by poor porting, shoddy UI and a difficult control scheme. Since the former two can be ignored for the most part, the single latter can be what can ruin the experience for everyone.

Risky's Revenge requires high-precision platforming and split-second decision making that can be difficult to achieve through the clunky keyboard controls. Having the jump button and "accept" toggles mapped to two different buttons can create more frustration than it sounds. Playing with a Gamepad (or, in my place, a wireless PS3 controller with the left analog stick and control pad switched to resemble more of a Gamepad) can ease your frustrations.

Let's begin and end with what your config menu should look like. Ignore the keyboard config.

Excuse the formatting, por favor.
Explanation
Jump - A
Attack - B or X (Your preference)
Dance - Y
Backdash - Left Trigger or Bumper (Your preference)
Open/Toggle Inventory - Right Trigger
Use/Toggle Item - Right Bumper
Open Main Menu - Back/Select

At first, this can be a clunky control scheme, but it can be the quickest to adapt to.
Reminder that A CANNOT be used as both a jump AND confirm button. I've moved the confirmation button to Start.

Remember: A is to cancel, and Start is to confirm. Start is your A, and A is your B.
Conclusion


If you've conifgured your Gamepad to these settings, you're Ret-2-Go!

If you have any suggestions to improve this guide or have a better control scheme of your own, please post yours in the comments.

Try this setting
Item- RT
Back Dash- LT or leave as is
Inventory- Back
Pause/Skip- Start
Confirm/Talk- RB
Cancel- B
Everything else leave default

You can change the Confirm/Talk button by hex-editing the save file:

This way you can use the same button for Jump. I tried it and it works fine.

Playing this game with a controller was an exercise in frustration and futility. I'm horrible with D-Pads, so trying to move and jump on the chains and stuff was maddening.

Finally ditching the controller and going with a custom keyboard setup really helped me enjoy this game a lot more. I set WASD for movement, SPACE for jump, LSHIFT for backdash, and the NUMPAD keys for attack, items, and dancing. The NUMENTER key is auto-set to confirm/talk, and since my hand is over the numpad anyways, it's within easy reach. Same goes for using TAB for inventory and ESC for pause, skip, and cancel - it works for all three.

So yeah. Just leaving this here in case anyone else struggles with the controls. Really enjoying this game so far, and I'm loving it even more now that I'm not actively fighting the controller and the D-pad.
