How do i get it to recognize my arcade buttons??? Great Game btw
Happy you like the game!
If you hit 'tab' in the titlescreen, you should get to the config menu. There you can set the controls.
Alternatively check the settings.cfg file- you can change the keys in there manually. If you mess it up, don't worry. Delete the file and a blank one will be created.
Ofcourse this also depends on your arcade setup. In most cases the default keys are the same as in MAME (when using the keyboard). Otherwise if the controls are mapped like a joystick, the controls are mapped to the left and right analog sticks.
