Hey, I have geometry dash lite on my android tablet, and am considering buying the full version from steam. However, I would like to ask about the controls on the PC.

I am guessing you mainly use the keyboard/mouse, but aren't these controls harder than on a touchscreen device? I just think that some levels require you to press it faster than a keyboard/mouse button takes to come back up, or will be difficult to accurately utilize.

I would like to hear your opinion of the PC controls in comparison to the mobile controls?

It depends. You can use your mouse to jump, your spacebar, or the up arrow. Personally though, I use an Xbox 360 controller. It's much easier to control, and I prefer it over any other way of controlling.

A lot of Youtubers use their mouse like AleXPain24 and GuitarHeroStyles. I can't get used to it though. If I don't have my controller with me though, I use the spacebar or up arrow.

Yeah, but i only have a ps3 controller, which isn't compatible with PC without third-party software :(

Aw, that sucks. I'm guessing that you might not want to spend about $50 on an Xbox controller. I guess that the only way for a PS3 controller is third party software. Using the spacebar or up arrow is fine, though.
