Xbox Wireless Controller not working for the game Night in the Woods, even with Enjoyable

So, I have been trying so hard to play natively Night in the Woods with my Xbox Wireless Controller, but I read that apparently, Night in the Woods didn't map the Xbox Controller properly on Mac. I tried to use Enjoyable, but it is doing nothing in the game. I tried to wrap it on Steam, but it is doing nothing. The only way it works is with CrossOver, but the game lags compared to how it runs on native. Is there a fix for this?

I have a Macbook 2019 Intel Chip, with all the Max specs of the time.

Install Bazzite (Linux) and use it to game instead.

Also recommend doing thermal mods to use the case as a thermal mass for better gaming performance.

I’ve been having a ton of issue with controller support on Mac for older games. It’s really hit or miss lately and It’s always difficult to find a workaround.
