keyboard only (sometimes not even that)

list of games that are on steam or available online and despite that, has no mouse support.
despite being on the pc platform and the input being readable being incredibly easy to program
might as well call this the lazy list

here's the opposite list : https://www.backloggd.com/u/pexo/list/mouse-support--based-devs-edition

i love this game from the very bottom of my heart, its one of my favorites, it pains me to say it has zero to no keybindings but to be fair it only has 2 buttons, wasd for movement and space
Sonic Adventure

its on steam with xinput, yet refusing to just allow reading mouse input, you'll have a better experience emulating it, there you can adjust the inputs to use mouse comfortably, thats what i've done
Spark the Electric Jester

i have a lot of respect for spark, but even the main keybind menu is atrocious, and you can't use mouse input despite the very engine allowing for the reading of the input

before anyone defends suda, suda wasn't even involved with the porting of this game, it was entirely up to Xseed, who done a barebones job, not even full controller support either, meanwhile based suda put mouse support in all the games he was involved in porting, he loves the platform that much.
