Bug #2116

Controller Scheme Defaults to Keyboard and Mouse on Docked Steam Deck

Status:	Open
Priority:	Critical
Added by:	a...s@betahub.io on March 25, '26
Assigned to:	Unassigned
Due date:
Reported for:	0.6.2 Auto

Steps to Reproduce

1. Downloaded game on my docked Steam Deck (on the built-in memory, not an extra card)
2. Opened the game and had to use fingers on the touch screen to enter the game
3. Start game
4. Skip the video before the tutorial
5. Attempt to look around once control of character has been granted
6. Using right thumbstick gave arrow up for forward movement, arrow left for panning to the left with the stick
7. Moving backwards gave arrow down input and moving to the right gave right arrow input. This happened in 90 degree turns and there was no smooth transition
8. Moving left thumbstick gave mouse input because the direction I looked changed, still not smoothly enough to walk forward in game

Explanation

when using a docked steamdeck with a controller paired to it, the steamdeck defaults to using a keyboard and mouse controller scheme which makes it unplayable.`
