Suggestion: Alternative Gamepad Controls
Hello!

I really like this game and rhythm games in general, but I find that the one-handed approach to the gameplay on gamepad using the Face Buttons to hit the beats feels a bit cumbersome, especially on expert mode.

I know a lot of people will probably call it a “skill issue” but I was thinking that an alternative set of gameplay controls that uses the Bumpers and Triggers rather than the Face Buttons to hit the beats (like the console versions of ‘Guitar Hero’) might give those who like having both hands on the controller a more enjoyable experience.

I am aware that you can remap the controls via Steam input, but then you get mismatched glyphs, which at least to me is mighty confusing (I use a PlayStation controller, by the way).

Anyway, I thought I’d just chime in with this little suggestion of perhaps including an alternative control scheme for gamepads in the future? - like I said, I’m liking the game so far, and I anticipate what is in store for us in future updates.

Thank you!

You can remap inputs in game, hit esc on main menu to go to settings

This only applies to Keyboard Keybinds and the option cannot be accessed when a controller is plugged in, even when the controller is set to emulate a Keyboard and Mouse. A solution specifically for Gamepads would be better.

No worries.

I imagine not a lot of people do to be honest - there are way more keyboard players on PC than controller.

It is strange that you can’t at the least remap gamepad controls like you can with keyboard, though.
