Does Steam's new viral game Only Up have controller support?

While the game gathered massive attention after some YouTubers tried to speedrun its campaign, it is also criticized by a large part of the community. Sadly, if you are a controller player, the game does not support your preferred device. You can only embark upon the journey by using the mouse and keyboard.

The game focuses on a teenage boy from the ghetto who wants to get out of poverty and see the world, and the only way to do that is by going up. With its tricky controls, the game is highly challenging for players. While that is the primary essence of the game, players who are comfortable with controllers have been showcasing their frustration towards the developer.

However, according to another part of the community, adding controller support goes entirely against the essence of the game.
