after long day at my job, i just wanna kick back and relax. maybe holding a controller instead of keyboard and mouse would be nice.
i like stardew valley but the experience with controller is just poor. it’s just not designed to work that way (even with the controller mod). thus the question. Any cool ideas?
It’s been a minute but i think i know what might be bugging you about the controls. If it’s the having to move and look with the same control, check the settings. There might be a way to adjust it.
As for other options…
-The Farming Simulator games are great for controller.
- Story of Seasons is on sale on Steam right now.
- Out of Ore
- Mini Metro
- Jalopy
- Shipbreaker
- the My Time At … series
- No Mans Sky
- Never Alone
- Hokko Life
- Staxel
- Rebel Galaxy
- Olli Olli
- Arctico
Looking on steam cross-referencing ‘casual’ and ‘good for steam deck’ is probably a good way to find some more.
What don’t you like about it? I played it just fine with an Xbox controller
it’s fine i get it. but do you consider that a good/better experience than kb&m? that’s my it’s not built to work well without pointer…
Give Spiritfarer a shot, full controller support and even a bit of harvest, fishing, and adventure to boot. 30 hours easy if you take your time, more if you want. Super chill game.
+1 for spiritfarer, but brace yourself for big sad
The game is also on consoles so don’t know what you’d mean
It just… feels better with KBM. and I’m sad about that. I wanna sit back, but it just feels crunchier with a controller.
