Controlling the game using the gamepad is relatively easy to implement. However, some cannot say the same when  navigating in the UI.

Since I am not using engines like Godot/Unreal/Unity I have to implement one that is satisfactory and must look and feel good. Thankfully it is not hard to implement when you use JMonkeyEngine and Lemur UI

I will add the gamepad controls UI so you will know how you can play this game with your Xbox/Playstation controller.

I will plan to add support for more controllers when I get my hands on them :) (Steam controller for example).
