After thoroughly enjoying Stray, I thought I’d give Spirit of the North a try. It also features a four-legged little hero, and while it may not be as cute and perfect as Stray, it’s a nice relaxing puzzle adventure. Sadly there’s no option to disable the Controller Rumble feature. I’m playing with a Luna controller, … Read more
The Steam allows you to use most console controllers to play games on PC, even those that have not native controller support builtin. Steam does this by allowing us to re-map mouse and keyboard inputs to any of the buttons/sticks/triggers of the controller. It’s an incredibly finnickity process though and I freuqently forget how to … Read more
The PS4 light at the front is a nice gimmick, but it drains the battery and when set too bright really annoys me when I play at night. It’s not an issue when I connect the controller via DS4 Windows, but many games on Steam (and increasable EPIC) support the PS4 controller natively. This means … Read more

The moment this happened, my trusty golden Playstation 4 controller started behaving rather weirdly. It took me some time to figure out that it was … Read more
I’ve been getting a tad tired of the sales notifications that show up whenever I start Steam on one of my systems. I had disabled this ages ago on my main computer but couldn’t remember where the setting was. Here it is: head over to Steam – Settings – Interface (that’s at the top left … Read more
The Steam Desktop client has suffered some severe bouts of feature creep over the years. As such, I’m having a hard time doing the simplest things sometimes. Case in point: where and how do I activate a key I’ve been given. This relatively simple task could perhaps be a little more prominent, but alas it’s … Read more
Steam has so many exciting hidden features, like native PS4 Controller / Dualshock 4 integration. I’ve been playing with its Big Picture Mode from the couch, and I’m loving it. Sometimes I’d like to take a screenshot and was wondering if there’s a way to do this with just the controller – and it turns … Read more
