Arkanoid 1/2 loads up fine(FBA core) but the paddle can not be moved when the game is started. Is this a known issue or do I need to configure a certain option on the controller menu (I have gone through every available controller option to no avail).
I don’t think the libretro port of FBA currently has paddle support. Puzzloop 2 has the same issue, but the game also supports traditional control. This requires you to enter the game’s own test menu (using the Diagnostics core option in RetroArch) -> Configuration -> System, and change “Operation” to “2 Way Lever” or “4 Way Lever” rather than “Paddle”. The Arkanoid games might be similarly capable.
