Aquaria supplement (XBox 360/XInput Controller)

Post by Kloreep »

This profile supplements the game's default controller support, it does not replace it. Aquaria has decent controller support that I'd recommend using. I made a profile because keyboard users get some shortcuts that controller users do not, and cannot because they are not rebindable. These shortcuts go from merely convenient to vital as the game progresses. This profile makes these shortcuts available on parts of the controller that Aquaria doesn't already use.

As I only have a 360 controller, I can only confirm this works with it. But for all I know, it may work for other controllers with little to no adjustment. If you have a different controller and try this profile, please come back and tell me how it worked out.

Default controls (this is how the game should already be mapped, at least on a 360 controller):
Image Move

Image Aim

Image Dash/Attach to wall/Jump off wall/Accept

Image or Image [Tap] Normal attack/Cancel {Cooking} Select ingredient [Hold] Charge-up attack
Image or Image + Image {Naija Form} Sing

Image Revert to Naija form {Cooking} Remove ingredient

Image {Cooking} Combine

Image Map

Image Menu/Pause


Supplemental controls added by this profile:
Image {Naija form} Cast "Shield"

Image {Naija form} Cast "Bind"

Image Switch to different forms. Four forms available at a time, hold L-Trigger to switch out which. (See spoilers.)

Image [Hold] Change which forms are switched to when using the D-Pad. (See spoilers.)

Image Change to a form. (See spoilers.)

Image [Click] Hold to Roll

Image [Click] Hold to look around with R-Stick

I've omitted the forms that you discover during the game in case you'd rather be surprised by them. It is not necessary to know the mapping ahead of time: after you get a new form and learn how to switch to it by singing, you can quickly figure out the shortcut to switch without song by playing around with the D-pad (or Right Trigger). Just remember that some forms will only be available while you are holding L-Trigger (or while you are not).
(spoilers) But if you would like to see the list of forms (and exactly which can be triggered with what control) here they are:
Text/Images: Show
1) Normal form (Naija herself): Press Image always
2) Energy Form: Image always
3) Beast Form: Image Up, always
4) Nature Form: Image Left without trigger
5) Sun Form: Image Down, always
6) Fish Form: Image Left while L-Trigger is held
7) Spirit Form: Image Right while L-Trigger is held
8) Dual Form: Image Right without trigger (reminder: you can switch modes by rolling)

Code: Select all
