Pumpkin & Patch Controls

Pumpkin & Patch controls are documented only at the level of input support, not button bindings. The official store page lists full controller support, names DualShock and DualSense controllers, and carries a Gamepad Recommended tag, while nothing on the page publishes a key map. So the honest short answer is: play it with a gamepad, keyboard input is not ruled out, and the exact bindings are not documented yet.

Does Pumpkin & Patch Support Keyboard and Controller?

Input question	What the store page says
Platform	Windows
Full controller support	Yes, listed as a Steam feature
DualShock support	Yes, named on the store page
DualSense support	Yes, named on the store page
Gamepad Recommended tag	Yes
Published key bindings	No, not listed

The page is unusually specific about which controller families it supports, which is a good sign for gamepad players, and equally clear about platform: Windows only. It does not describe the on-screen prompts, the default layout, or whether the game switches prompts when you plug a controller in.

What the Controls Actually Do

The store page describes actions rather than buttons, and those actions are what your inputs drive.

Your default attack is ranged and projectile based, and the modern twist is a limited parry that deflects projectiles back at enemies, stuns melee attackers and heals the player. Movement expands as you find abilities: Pumpkin's Embershot lets Patch jump higher than any dog, and Patch can learn to freeze water into icebergs that he controls.

• Attack: a ranged projectile, the default way to fight.
• Parry: a limited, timed action that turns attacks back, stuns melee and heals.
• Movement: boosted by abilities such as Embershot and the controllable icebergs.

What Is Not Documented About Controls

The listing stops short of a button guide. There is no keyboard key list, no controller button map, no mention of remapping, sensitivity options or accessibility rebinds, and no statement about whether prompts adapt to the connected device. What the page does document on the comfort side is Camera Comfort, Custom Volume Controls, Playable at Your Own Pace and Playable without Timed Input, all of which describe how forgiving the game is rather than how it is bound. A full control scheme is therefore not documented yet. For the loop those controls drive, see the gameplay page, and for the abilities they unlock, the abilities page.
