User:Random-storykeeper/Nitrome Touchy controls

The Nitrome Touchy application allows players to use touch and motion based controls by connecting their device to a Touchy compatible game. By doing so, players are also able to activate the full screen mode.

D-pad
A skin related to the played game is displayed against the D-pad. This features the cross shape on the left side and the two circle buttons on the right. The D-pad is the most common type of controller used for Touchy compatible games and is purely touch based. Not all buttons on the pad are functional in the games themselves.

Typically, the cross-shaped button is used to move the character, while the buttons on the right are used to perform actions such as jumping and shooting.

For every game after and including Oodlegobs, the D-pad would be used to move a cursor and navigate options on the game's menu, with the exception of Bad Ice-Cream 3.

Super Stock Take
On March 19th 2013 (the day it was released), Super Stock Take was made Nitrome Touchy compatible for only one player. The chimp is moved with the left and right d-pad controls. The down d-pad control, when pressed, makes him pick up a block. The lower right-hand action button makes him throw the block, and the upper right-hand action button makes him jump.

B.C. Bow Contest
On April 5th, 2013, B.C. Bow Contest was made Nitrome Touchy compatible for up to two players. The bows and arrows of the yellow and green cavemen, as well as all other characters, are controlled with an arrow on the screen of the device. The arrow on the screen can be pulled back, resulting in the character pulling pack the arrow on the game screen. When the device is tilted, this will make the character on the game screen tilt the bow and arrow. There are only six positions in which the arrow can be in on the device screen. Weapons can also be selected from the device screen.

In multiplayer mode, the weapon setup screen is also accessible from the device. Both players can use the same device or separate ones. However, no matter what character player one or two decides to choose, their bow and arrow will always be yellow.
