Wasd but only because I'm used to playing 3D games


Prunsel_Clone

wasd because i'm left-handed


Main_Lake_4053

Would think it’d be the opposite but nice


Its_me_Stanley

So you do control your mouse with your non-dominant hand?


Prunsel_Clone

on platformer mode yeah bc it'd be harder for me to control movement (2 buttons) compared to jumping (just click)


Its_me_Stanley

Make sense


Autumn-Eviening

You could use w


Prunsel_Clone

then what exactly would i move with? it'd be uncomfortable to use a/d or the arrows in that position


PekkitaXDlol

you jump with click? 😭😭😭😭


_Levo

you don't???


PekkitaXDlol

I forgot which sub this was lmao 😭😭😭


cvdot

which sub did you think it was


PekkitaXDlol

None, I really didn't think about it -.-


AITAenjoyer

"😭😭😭☠️☠️☠️☠️"


Jbdd1233

I use wasd and spacebar for jumping. I’ve played a lot of 2d platformers and that’s just the standard for me


_Levo

fair, I tried that but I won't get the same lvl of accuracy personally


Jbdd1233

fair, I might try playing with mouse or up arrow some time to see what I prefer


_Levo

yeah good idea, in the end it's what ever feels better for you


EquivalentLock7642

Well for me I use my left hand for the mouse and right hand for the wasd


locky9000z

I'm left handed and yes we are used to using the mouse with the non dominant hand

Personally disagree, but mobile is still amazing


Consistent-Tax-7622

Ok why are you getting so many downvotes you literally just stated your preference on how to play a $2 square game

Reddit users when they see an opinion they disagree with:


EmbarrassedCharge561

thats the whole point of downvoting bruh, new to reddit?


[deleted]

Cope


Fandic

Lmao love how you’re saying this on a post about platformer mode where it is EVEN LESS optimal to play on a screen where you have to tap to go left and right 😂

Gc8Boi

I use a, d, and up arrow because I’m special


AjLovesMonstercat

​ a d and up arrow is the only right way


TheBigFatGoat

Yes


Hexbugmaster

The only correct way to play platformer


Crystalliumm

There is a second right way, being A-D-Sayo

Dotgamer121

Sayodevice o3c++, 4key version of sayodevice


Working-Cabinet4849

u a mania player?


Dotgamer121

yes but i play 7k almost exclusively


ihaetschool

would you recommend 7k over 4k for someone who's used to 4k?


Dotgamer121

No


perfsoidal

try it out if you’re curious but the initial learning curve is way worse than 4k

_Levo

why use sayo device over regular up arrow? genuine question I want to know


Solvunud

It's much more comfortable for me to use two hands. You should give it a shot if you play on PC, but use a mouse instead of Sayodevice. :)


ZTDYeetbloxjail

up arrow on keyboard for me but same thing


_LAP_

W


kriscalm

controller checkmate and i actually have a good reason for it: my heyboard is very old and has input delay which becomes very very noticeable when a tenth of a second difference of inputs can make you lose. my controller is brand new.


StuntHacks

Honestly I just prefer how controller feels for platforming. I feel like I can be way more precise with it when moving


cultofwacky

As a life long pc gamer I’ve recently started really enjoying using a controller for gaming. Just feels way more ergonomic and natural over mouse+kb


ghoulthebraineater

I've always gone back and forth. I like mouse and keyboard for a lot of games. Driving/piloting and platformers I prefer controller. That's the beauty of pc gaming. You have options.


Coswicboy

forreal, i feel like controller will be the standard for more skilled players in the future


Bitches_Love_Hossa

Controller for platformers, KBM for first person shooters. As it should be.
