Did they ever add gamepad support?

[–] smort 5 points 1 year ago (4 children)

According to the Steam page, it does not have controller support.

I’m waiting for that too, so I can play on the Deck or on the couch

Yeah, I guess I'm gonna dogpile here a bit, but can confirm it's pretty solid on the deck. I thought I'd hate track-padding, but it's actually pretty pleasant. Just had to remap a couple things, like wood-cutting & a couple back paddle buttons and it plays surprisingly smoothly. I've played on both PC & deck and oddly I'm starting to get to like playing on the deck a little bit better actually.

Give it a try!

Ok, yeah I’ve tried trackpadding other games on the Deck and it was a thoroughly unenjoyable experience for me. Maybe I’ll try to push through again with this game

That's my current wish. After 50 hours on my computer, Im excited to take it with me on a keypad.

I've played almost exclusively on my Steam Deck since early access. I'd argue it's actually easier to play on the Steam Deck with all the hotkeys and whatnot mapped to buttons.

You can play it on the Deck if you just use one of the trackpad as mouse, I do it all the time :D

[–] smort 2 points 1 year ago

Yeah I’ve tried using the Deck’s trackpads in games. I’m ok with it for an occasional menu, but I haven’t been able to enjoy it enough to use it as a primary gaming input device
