Description

The Dynamic Touch Screen Joystick Widget is a tool for Clickteam Fusion 2.5 developers to use in their Android and iOS mobile games!


Wherever the player touches on screen (within your customized boundaries), your customized joystick will spawn. Your players can now choose where they feel is most comfortable to rest their thumbs and control your game. No more sore, cramped thumbs!

Import the widget into your game and super easily add a smart, dynamically positioned joystick specifically designed for touch-screens. Edit a few alterable values on the widget to customize its built-in visuals and settings, such as:

  • Joystick scale
  • Screen position where the Joystick can be used
  • Joystick drag radius
  • Deadzone
  • Type of control (Analog, D-Pad, Horizontal/Vertical Slider, etc)
  • and more!


The widget also includes a Button widget (seen in the preview video) and can even be easily used for dual-joystick style games!

The MFA file comes with seven (!) example frames showing off different game styles and uses for the widget, as well as a Debug frame that allows you to see what's going on behind the scenes. Be sure to check out the "Settings + Help" event editor for extensive documentation on the widget!
