Hyper Light Breaker Sensitivity Adjustment: A Guide
Currently, Hyper Light Breaker lacks native sensitivity settings. This is a notable omission, especially considering the game's emphasis on precise timing and reactions. However, the developers, Heart Machine, have confirmed plans to address this and other performance/accessibility issues via an upcoming update. This makes waiting for the official patch the recommended approach.
While a fix is underway, workarounds exist for those eager to play now:
Mouse and Keyboard Users: The simplest solution is adjusting your mouse DPI. Increase the DPI (dots per inch) either through your mouse's hardware settings or system software. This effectively boosts in-game sensitivity, though remember this affects your entire system's mouse responsiveness.
Controller Users (DS4): DS4 software allows for joystick sensitivity adjustments. These changes will carry over to Hyper Light Breaker. Alternatively, configure your right joystick to emulate a mouse, then adjust sensitivity as described above.
Advanced Steam Users: A community-contributed method on the Steam forums (link omitted for brevity, but easily searchable) involves directly modifying game files. This requires technical expertise and carries a risk, so it's only recommended for experienced users. Again, waiting for the official update is strongly advised.
In short, patience is key. While temporary workarounds exist, an official sensitivity adjustment is on its way.
Hyper Light Breaker is currently available.
