Has anyone ever made a keyboard with a D-pad?
Not just a Plus shaped arrow keys, I know of a couple keyboards that do that, but actually put a plastic rocker in there, so when you push UP it releases DOWN because the whole piece tilts around a central pivot

or do I have to do everything myself

@andrewt hah, fun!
I eagerly look forward to the long career of "keyboard cheating", because modifying whatever features you want into a boring beige 20$ special is pretty trivial

@foone my keyboard added a kind of firmware version of this recently and it was immediately banned by all the competitive gaming communities 🙃

@lazerwalker yeah, it's a clear absence in the market. I'm gonna have to do this shit myself.

@foone I’ve seen hobbyist (split ortho) keyboards that have a little Alps 5-way digital joystick on them. And there’s the Azeron Cyborg 2 with an analogue joystick. But I haven’t seen anyone shove, like, an NES rocker pad on a board.

@krono More or less
