SPECIAL NOTE FOR CONTROLLER AND JOYSTICK USERS:  If you want to use a Generic USB Controller or a STEAM Controller, _must_ buy it on Steam, or add it to the Steam Client Platform if you buy it through Download or on Itch, just like you would any third party application.  This should enable use of the STEAM Controller and therefore your Generic USB Controller.  See the file Apolune/data/RTFM.bat for details, or view the Steam Guide for controllers section: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1646461458 (Developer's Official Guide)  OR  you can map controllers to keys using other Third-Party apps like Joy To Key, reWASD, and many other free ones.
