Can the game be played with a game controller!?

Problem being even if it was, what about moving the pirate? That's done via keyboard. It would have to work with both the keyboard and the mouse.

I'm sure it's quite possible if the controller is designed to emulate the key presses and mouse clicks. I know Zeppers plays using his mouse for most things (even movement) so it's not impossible. There are controllers out there with plenty of buttons. Most I've seen in the store resembled (and had buttons to match) a Playstation controller. If such a gamepad/controller isn't available, there is software out there that will map the keyboard/mouse to the controller for you.

I heard some people used to did this LONG ago.
It was with a gaming controller.
