Newgrounds recently introduced Controller Mapping for Flash Games.
The mapping for each game is unique so it will be a big project to add mapping to as many games as possible. This club is a place where people can suggest mapping defaults for game that don't have them!
We're using the Xbox controller as the template:
For example, here’s how I would explain the Alien Hominid mapping:
Left Stick - Arrow Keys - Move
D-Pad - Arrow Keys - Move
X Button - A Key - Shoot
A Button - S Key - Jump
I start with the controller input type, followed by the keyboard key, followed by a description of the action performed.
Preferences will vary but in general if a game has jumping and attacking, the A button is Jump and the X button is Attack.
If you're a Supporter and have been setting your own custom mapping, you can also post a screenshot of your mapping in this thread, rather than transcribe it to text.
Thanks in advance for any help with this initiative! We'll be bringing some mapping moderators onboard when the tools are ready, as well.
