Anyone else having problems with the controls? They feel really weird and unresponsive, like sometimes the ship zips toward the direction I want and then a second later it'll be really slow going in a different direction. Like just dragging the joystick in a circle results in really awkward, clunky movement. In the controls menu it almost looks like you are only meant to move left and right, and up/down is only for speeding up and braking. But in practice, up/down also moves the ship up and down most of the time, and I notice no difference in accelerating/braking. It's really confusing and frustrating.
I’m on the same boat. Specially with so many other games on the same vein and top notch controls... as you said in this game they feel “weird”
That was my first impression as well. Can't really seem to get used to them, but then again my hand coordination isn't as good as it used to.
