Ender Lilies on a Mac with a controller
The Ender Lilies: Quietus of the Knights layout is built into InputConfig, free on the Mac App Store. You don't have to make an account, there are no subscriptions, and nothing is locked. Optimized for Apple silicon.
On a Mac: No Mac version. It streams to a Mac from a Windows PC you own. The stream normally passes a controller to the game's native scheme. This layout is for streams that do not see the pad. It starts from the Hollow Knight template, so Ender Lilies' spirit set swap and second spirit need new keys.
Yes, Ender Lilies plays on a Mac with a controller, streamed from a Windows PC you own. This layout is for a stream that misses your pad, and the Hollow Knight layout fits with two key changes: jump, attack and dash on the face buttons. The parry is the attack, timed. Nothing to bind.

The layout, control by control
How the layout thinks
- Move and aim. The left stick and the D-pad both send the arrow keys.
- Face buttons. Jump on the bottom (Z), attack on the left (X), dash on the right (C), cast on the top (A).
- Heal and special. The right trigger and the left bumper send A too, labeled heal and special. The right bumper sends D, labeled special ability.
- Menu. Pause on Start (Escape).
Jump, attack and dash are right from the first room.
Tune it
- Spirit set swap. Set the right bumper's output, the template's special ability row, to the spirit set swap.
- Second spirit. Set the cast row on the top face button to the second spirit.
- A buzz on the heal. Turn on Vibrate in the heal row's Options.
Two key changes make the Hollow Knight rows into Ender Lilies'.
If the game sees the pad
A stream normally passes your controller to the game's own scheme. Climb this ladder, smallest step first:
- Try the stream on its own. Leave the preset off and push the left stick. If you move, use the game's own scheme.
- Activate the layout. If nothing moves, press Activate, and the pad sends the keys and clicks above.
- Turn one off if presses double. If one press does two things, the game reads the pad and the preset at once. Press Deactivate.
Ender Lilies reads a pad well, so the layout is only for the stream that drops it.
Ender Lilies: Quietus of the Knights controller support: controller or keyboard
Steam's store page lists full controller support for Ender Lilies: Quietus of the Knights, so the game was made to be played on a controller, menus included. A keyboard and mouse work as well, and the choice is yours. On a Mac, use the game's own controller support first when it sees your pad; this layout is for a pad it does not see, or for buttons it will not let you move. Full support listed means the controller is a first-class way to play Ender Lilies: Quietus of the Knights.
From Steam's listing, checked in October 2026. Every game's listing is in Mac games with controller support.
If your controller is not working in Ender Lilies: Quietus of the Knights
When Ender Lilies: Quietus of the Knights does not react to your controller on a Mac, climb this ladder, smallest step first:
- Check that the Mac sees the controller. Open the gamepad tester and press a button. If nothing lights up there, the problem is the connection, and a controller that is connected but not working covers that first.
- Press a button after the stream has started. A stream only picks up a controller that is paired with the Mac, and a browser shows a controller to a page only after a button press. Start Ender Lilies: Quietus of the Knights, then press any button. Streaming from your own PC has its own checks, in how to stream PC games to a Mac with a controller.
- Play it from keys. If Ender Lilies: Quietus of the Knights still ignores the pad, activate this layout. It sends the keyboard and mouse controls Ender Lilies: Quietus of the Knights already reads. Turn the game's own controller option off while it runs, or a press can arrive twice. The layout works whether or not Ender Lilies: Quietus of the Knights ever sees the controller.
Get it in two clicks
- Get InputConfig free on the Mac App Store, open it, and click Smart Preset Maker on the welcome screen.
- Search for Ender Lilies: Quietus of the Knights and pick it. The layout 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.
To check the controller itself first, the gamepad tester shows every button and stick live in your browser.
Ender Lilies: Quietus of the Knights controls: every button and the key it sends
The Sends column is Ender Lilies: Quietus of the Knights's default keyboard and mouse controls, as this layout expects them. If you changed a key in the game's settings, change the same row in InputConfig.
| Controller | Sends | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| Left stick left | Left | Move left |
| Left stick right | Right | Move right |
| Left stick up | Up | Look / aim up |
| Left stick down | Down | Look / aim down |
| D-pad left | Left | Move left (d-pad) |
| D-pad right | Right | Move right (d-pad) |
| D-pad up | Up | Up (d-pad) |
| D-pad down | Down | Down (d-pad) |
| A / Cross | Z | Jump (Z) |
| X / Square | X | Attack (X) |
| B / Circle | C | Dash (C) |
| Y / Triangle | A | Cast spell (A) |
| Right trigger | A | Heal / special (hold) |
| LB / L1 | A | Heal / special |
| RB / R1 | D | Special ability (D) |
| Start / Options | Escape | Pause (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 labeled B; the mapping still fires on position.
