[UI] Introduce Mouse/Touch Support
Suggestion
Introduce Mouse/Touch Support. 🖱 🖐
- Left click: Confirm
- Right click: Back
- Scroll: Browsing Songs
Use case
- It's much more comfortable for players if they can simply use their mouse or touch screen to controll the game.
- Many players don't have a usb controller or want to use keyboard.
- We could highly improve the acceptance of performous with this feature
Extra info/examples/attachments
We will have to rearrange existing screen layouts.
Hmmm i actually like the simplicity of not having to use a mouse.
That being said though the current navigation might be in for a rewrite to make it as easy as possible for the enduser.
The current UI is pretty much built without mouse support in mind so for this to work i think we need to change the way people move throughout our application else it'll be pretty click intensive
I'm open for both ideas:
- Rewrite of current navigation to better suit a keyboard only option
- Rewrite / Redesign the game with a mouse in mind
@Baklap4 - That's a good point. It would be a bigger effort to introduce mouse support cause of re-thinking the game UI completely. I can understand if you're not a total fan of mouse.
I would like to add an option 3 3. Introduce game pad support + design game for game pad/keyboard 🎮
If I had to choose between game pad, keyboard and mouse - I would say game pad. Game Pad would be more important than mouse support for me.
- Game Pad is the most ergonomic way for input.
- Plus it has a certain gamer feeling.
- Game Pad is not so far away from keyboard functionality.
- There's no game pad support for performous yet (right?)
- Searching for songs would be still via keyboard / webbrowser ui
I can close this and open a game pad support issue
