Keyboard vs. gamepad

[Lemonray]

Dark Castle is a terrible game regardless of what kind of machine you use to play it.

Actually, it's quite the opposite on it's home version, the Mac.

This is why Keyboard and Mouse games should stay keyboard and mouse, UNLESS they're perfectly optimized for a d-pad/analog stick.

Still looks rather fidgety to me. Notice, amongst other things, how the guy fails to hit enemies in front of him multiple times. The game looks like it'd be incredibly easy, too, regardless of any flawed controls.
