Steam Controller on Haiku

In case anyone was wondering, the new Steam Controller does work on Haiku, atleast in a Fallback mode. The D-Pad works as left right up down on a keyboard, the touchpad works as a mouse, and the triggers as mouse buttons, and the left touchpad as a scrollwheel.

I’ve not seen any functionality for the other buttons.

In the input preferences it appears as 8 devices, which is a bit annoying. I hope that we can group these in the future based on some relationship, though ideally the steam controller puck would just be displayed as a single device

Imagined if steam was ported to Haiku :smiley: though I don’t ever think I’ll see that happen though. I would like to see something like itch.io client ported to haiku even though most games on that platform are pretty much shovelware, some of them are quite fun to play but then again, I don’t think there’s too many Haiku. Games on there yet
