Repeated intro

Hey witches and wizards! We're back with a couple of updates, most notably including Xbox360 controller support! This update also includes balance adjustments, bug fixes, and a few other changes. Read on for the full list! Like any feature, we're open to feedback and suggestions on controller input. Magicmaker was originally designed with keyboard and mouse in mind, and comes with its own set of challenges when making the transition to gamepads. While we've done our best to smooth out that transition, we'd like to hear your thoughts. Come on over to the community forums and join in the discussion!
