How do you feel about Sky with Mouse and Keyboard?

[TGC Faraz]

Hi Everyone!

Hope you're all doing wonderful :) I was hoping to have a discussion on the how the Sky PC Demo feels on mouse & keyboard.

Are you finding the controls to be responsive when moving through the world? Are you enjoying using KBM, or do you prefer using a gamepad on PC?

Thank you for your feedback!

Main controls seem good! However my only issue is when it comes to instruments. I feel it is way better on controller for that.

It's bothering me that jump and fly are the same button, sometimes I want to jump and if I press it at the wrong time I end up flying instead and losing some of my light energy. I would love it if I could change it so the fly and jump buttons are separate controls.

I love IT! alot better on Mouse and keyboard imo

As soon as I could I switched to PC because controls are a lot more precise there, especially when trying to navigate. Spent probably 600 hours on that demo version until you introduced Early Access.

That said, having multiple people with you (or even one) makes steering significantly harder, not sure if it's intended to be such a drastic difference.

Someone said rolling midair ain't possible, which is false: you can roll midair on PC while holding several steering keys pressed and then turning into a different direction. I just didn't figure out a way to actually use it in a cohesive, useful way yet. Some tutorial / additional info or some rework of the keybinds would be very cool regarding this specific topic.

Doing bigger plants or that Earth Trial is sometimes outright crazy on PC, controls seem very shaky and overreacting a lot, sometimes doing a double jump because I jumped from 1 platform / leaf to another and doing the second hit on my Space Bar while midair, which the game sometimes "saves" and executes when the avatar lands on its destination.

Overall I salute you for this masterpiece and its nearly flawless adaption on PC. I wouldn't play Sky nearly as much as I do if there was no PC version.

Thanks devs, thanks TGC!

please add keyboard invert flight option

Two changes and it's pretty much perfect: increase the default mouse sensitivity for the camera (it starts out way too slow), and add an option to invert the flight controls on keyboard.

its amazing. sometimes its confusing 😅

Option to control/toggle running on or off.

Em determinados momentos do voo a movimentação com o mouse atrapalhou um pouco, mas o jogo está muito bom

Tool Tips are still something really needed. Hovering over things and getting any sort of details would be really helpful. I go into some odd screen and it just has "F" on what LOOKS like a map?

And the ability to more easily find Steam friends. It's completely un-intuitive to find friends. Going to social should so friends, not Social Media. I'd really rather not have that option in a game at all (even on mobile). And friends list with the 'Sky Codes' is sort of a pain as well.

Otherwise, I like the music, I really enjoy the sky and clouds and flying, I just have no idea what we are doing otherwise besides seeing how spirits were supposed to be for a few moments.

it may have been said already but when you are watching someone's recording you will lose the ability to move the camera with your mouse. quite annoying

the mouse needs an option to invert Y axis. And kee rebind to please.

Mouse and keyboard are more good than gamepad or controler for this game

[Puffin]

Keyboard controls aren't too bad. Some keybindings are in familiar layout to other games... I have issue with controller. Steam says my controller is supported. Inside the game, it says controller not detected and I was stuck in keyboard mode.

I think there is a option for it. You just gotta look for it in settings
