If you track the github PRs for joypad support, you can see me and est31 tested with logitech and xbox controllers.

I also have a super generic controller like this that works (somewhat, I haven't figured out how to use the inventory just yet):

I added support for xbox controllers, however it only seems to work on my laptop. Controller support is very basic regardless, and doesn't support inventories/GUIs. I suggest using a third party program to convert the controls to keyboard and mouse
