yes to what Stevie said above. Works flawlessly on my xbox 360 controller here, as well as 2 others I have tested it on. Odd that you are saying your 360 controller has an inverted axis though (all of the axis on my 360 controller are normal) The direction(right/left) you move in the config does not matter, since I only detect movement on the axis to determine which one is being moved.
For those having trouble,... Delete the .cfg file and run it again. Make sure the dots in the boxes are moving correctly, or the sticks won't work right in the game. If an axis is inverted, right click in the blue box, and it will become orange to show it has been inverted.
If you do not have a dual stick, but a single stick only, you can assign the stick 2 axis controls to stick 1 also. Then you will just shoot forward whenever you are moving. Not really the same, but at least a bit playable for you.
also, you can hover your mouse over any blue box, and use the mousewheel to change the axis manually if the other method is giving you trouble.
I've actually got a fairly high deadzone already, but I will make it an option to change on a later release.
Funny about the Joy button 1 thing, I should have taken that out of here... the first few times I played Geometry wars I did the same thing (until I realised you fired with the second stick.)
For anyone still having trouble with config,... run the config, go to debug and watch the bars move. Some will go from -1 to 1, others will go from -180 to 180. Are you getting anything else weird happening? I have heard of some sticks reporting to 255, so I may need to tweak the config a bit for those.
