Input
Keyboard and mouse | State | Notes |
---|---|---|
Remapping | Key remapping options are in the controls menu, but can't be changed, likely due to a bug.[6] | |
Mouse acceleration | Mouse smoothing is force enabled, alongside the vertical and horizontal mouse sensitivity being different. | |
Mouse sensitivity | Separate sliders for "Camera Sensitivity" and "Camera Sensitivity (Aimed Shot Mode)" are available. | |
Mouse input in menus | ||
Mouse Y-axis inversion | ||
Touchscreen optimised | Buttons can be tapped but no left stick for movement. Not working in "Console mode". |
|
Controller | ||
Controller support | Requires changing the control type setting to "Controller", as it does not automatically switch to controller mode when a controller is connected. The setting is not saved and must be changed each launch. Switching to "Controller" will change the game to "Console mode" with UI optimized for console. |
|
Full controller support | A keyboard is required to input main character's name, and upon each boot-up, control type setting must be changed to "Controller". | |
Controller remapping | Uses Japanese-style layout for "Confirm" and "Cancel" buttons (O/B to select and X/A to cancel), with no way to change inputs. | |
Controller sensitivity | Separate sliders for "Camera Sensitivity" and "Camera Sensitivity (Aimed Shot Mode)" are available. | |

- AF is certainly always on if i had to guess at 4x to 8x. Tested by simply looking at angles and determining that AF is there.

- Holding "Shift" while startup will open the Unity configuration menu, which allows for remapping, but most input settings that appear in the menu are many dummied different joystick axis settings, debug settings, and other bindings that aren't actually used in-game.
