The game fully supports gamepads. Your basic skill and interact are mapped to A, core to X, skill 1 to Y, and the rest on LT, RT, and RB. LB is for potions. They're all remappable too, so you can configure how you like. Personally, I have basic and core on the triggers, and then the skills on my face buttons.
Honestly, it feels like playing a Gauntlet style game, feels very arcadey in a good way. The only downside is that if you're a caster, it's somewhat hard to aim your spells since you don't have a precise mouse cursor. This makes placing your hydras or your teleport destinations a little bit annoying. They're always placed at a constant distance away from you in the direction you're looking. For enemies, there's lock on targeting though.
