Death's Door: controller layout for Mac
Death's Door does not need a controller-aware version of itself to be played from a controller on a Mac. InputConfig sends real keyboard and mouse events, so the game sees a keyboard and a mouse, and you hold the controller. This is the layout the app's Smart Preset Maker builds for it: Isometric action-adventure.
Get the preset in two clicks
- Open InputConfig and click Smart Preset Maker on the welcome screen.
- Search for Death's Door and pick it. The layout below is created as a preset in your sidebar, named and ready.
- Press Activate. Every row can be changed afterwards: the editor's Scan button rebinds any control the moment you touch it.
The full button map
| Controller | Sends | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| Left stick left | A | Move left (A) |
| Left stick right | D | Move right (D) |
| Left stick up | W | Move up (W) |
| Left stick down | S | Move down (S) |
| Right stick left | Mouse motion left (speed 20) | Aim ranged left |
| Right stick right | Mouse motion right (speed 20) | Aim ranged right |
| Right stick up | Mouse motion up (speed 14) | Aim ranged up |
| Right stick down | Mouse motion down (speed 14) | Aim ranged down |
| Right trigger | Left click | Melee attack (left click / V) |
| Left trigger | Right click | Aim & fire ranged weapon (right click / Q) |
| RB / R1 | Middle click | Charged attack (middle click / B) |
| A / Cross | Space | Dodge roll / confirm (Space) |
| X / Square | E | Interact (E) |
| LB / L1 | Shift (Left) | Look ahead (hold Left Shift) |
| B / Circle | 2 | Switch spell / weapon 2 (2) |
| Y / Triangle | 1 | Switch spell / weapon 1 (1) |
| D-pad left | Z | Menu left (Z) |
| D-pad right | X | Menu right (X) |
| Start / Options | Escape | Pause / menu (Esc) |
Button names follow the Xbox / PlayStation pair shown in the editor, so A / Cross is the bottom face button on either pad. On a Switch Pro Controller the bottom button is labelled B; the mapping still fires on position.
Tips
- Death's Door aims ranged tools with the mouse, so the right stick steers your bow, bombs, and magic while the right trigger fires.
- Tap A (Space) to dodge roll; the same button confirms menu choices.
- Hold LB (Left Shift) to look ahead and scout rooms before you commit.
- It uses a fixed isometric camera rather than first-person look, so the cursor is left free for aiming.
Make it yours
Nothing here is fixed. Rows can be re-scanned to a different control, given hold and double-tap actions, chords, turbo, macros, haptic or spoken feedback, and per-binding deadzones and sensitivity curves. The binding editor guide covers every option, and the controller map shows what each control is called.
