This video will help you with that! In this easy Unity tutorial, I'll show you how to: - Setup Controls with the Input system (cause using the old Inputs... is gross) - Setup a handy Input Manager to detect Input with multiple control schemes. - Create 2 simple menus we can swap between. - How to set which button is selected first by default when you open a menu (which is the secret sauce to actually setting up gamepad/keyboard navigation in your menu.) - How to explicitly control button/UI element navigation in your menu Link to Download the FREE 2D Asset Pack seen in this tutorial: https://assetpack.sasquatchbstudios.com/ --- In need of some Unity Assets?
