Playing with One Joystick and Two Buttons | Controls Walkthrough Video

0:00 Here at SpecialEffect we work with disabled gamers and help them find ways

0:04 to be able to play. We often meet people who can use one joystick and two buttons.

0:09 So, in this video we’re going to have a look at selection of games that you can

0:12 use with this control setup. Some games are designed to be played with one stick

0:17 and two buttons and others work well with reduced controls. FIFA 18 has an

0:24 optional two button mode which allows you to use left stick for player

0:27 movement and one button for pass or light tackle and another button for

0:32 shoot or hard tackle.

0:40 Although many racing games allow for more inputs for

0:43 extra control, we often find that you can play with just one joystick for steering

0:47 a button for accelerate and another button for braking and reverse. In this

0:52 particular video we are showing Burnout Paradise using this control setup.

1:00 Here we’re having a look at Gran Turismo and Forza Motorsport 7 using the same

1:04 control schemes.

1:16 In Crash Bandicoot you can play using a stick to run around, a button for jump

1:21 and another button for spin attack.

1:33 In Limbo you use the left stick to make the character move around one button to

1:37 interact with objects and another button to jump.

1:57 If you like Limbo you might want have a look at Inside which uses the same

2:01 controls and has a similar gameplay style.

2:14 InToki Tori 2 you use the left stick to make the character move around, one

2:19 button to stomp and the other button to whistle. You use these two commands to

2:23 solve puzzles within the game. The character will jump over objects that

2:27 aren’t too high automatically.

2:34 Mario Kart 8 Deluxe allows you to play the game

2:36 with reduced controls due to accessibility settings in the game. So

2:41 here we’re using left stick for steering, we have auto accelerate switched on and

2:45 we’re using our two buttons for brake and use item.

2:54 Nidhogg is a side-scrolling sword fighting game where you use one button

2:58 for attack and the other button for jump. You can aim your attack moving the left

3:03 analog stick up and down. The original Nidhogg has the same controls.

3:16 In Bush League Hockey use one analog stick for player movement and for aiming, one button to

3:20 pass and another the button to shoot. When playing defensively you use these

3:24 buttons to tackle your opponent.

3:28 The next few games we’ll look at in this video

3:30 only require one button and one joystick. Here we’re having a look at

3:34 Sonic Mania. In Sonic Mania you use one stick for player movement and one button for

3:39 jump. Earlier in the video we had a look at FIFA 18 and it’s Two Button mode.

3:53 FIFA 19 has Two Button mode but it also has a One Button mode where you use one

3:57 joystick for player movement and one button for pass, shoot and tackle.

4:09 Donut County is another one stick one button game. You generally used the

4:13 button to progress dialogue and the stick to move the whole around and collect the

4:18 items as a way to solve the puzzles.

4:27 Dino Dini’s kick-off revival is a retro style

4:38 football game that uses one button for all commands and the left stick for

4:42 player movement.
