Can you play with a controller?

Controller play may be possible through Steam Input or local configuration, but the safest setup is to test paint, pose, camera movement, menu navigation, and room joining before a real match. Keep keyboard and mouse ready if controller mapping feels slow.

Input test route

  • Open a private room and test camera sweep speed.
  • Paint a small target surface without over-correcting.
  • Pose and unpose quickly without opening the wrong menu.
  • Join, leave, and rejoin a room to check menu navigation.
  • If mapping feels awkward, use keyboard/mouse for hosting.

FAQ

Quick answers

Is controller the best way to play?

Keyboard and mouse are the safest baseline for fast painting and scanning. Controller is worth testing if comfort matters more than maximum precision.

Does controller support prove console release?

No. Controller experiments or Steam Input support do not confirm PlayStation, Xbox, or Switch versions.
