# gamo
local gamepad tester
original TUI app here: [https://git.pixelatedw.xyz/wynd/gamo](https://git.pixelatedw.xyz/wynd/gamo)
## why ?
there's nothing particularly fancy about this and it does what it says, allows the user to test their gamepad
made with godot because I couldn't be bothered with any GUI toolkits out there
it uses a custom exporting template (built script only works on linux at the moment) to cut down its size by more than half

compared with the original TUI version it is huge coming at around 21MB (about 11 times more) and it consumes ~130MB of RAM (about 26 times more)

however it comes with a bunch of benefits such as a much nicer layout, button images, transparency and an overall (very subjecitve) nicer UX/DX
## controls
- `v` to start a rumble test (weak default)
- `shift` toggle between rumble modes (weak/strong)
## config
this app comes with a config found in:
- Linux: `~/.local/share/gamo/config.cfg`
