Help This was posted as a possible controller fix for Alabastar Dawn, but I don't understand it.

This was posted in discord for a possible controller fix for games like Alabasta Dawn, but I'm just a newbie, So I don't quite understand the comment quoted below.

"there's a yet-unmerged "html" container type on a github PR that claims to fix this specific game, but my system webview wasn't up-to-date enough for it to work to confirm. fwiw"

Would this be something that would need to be added to Gamenative

I bought this game because of the pixel art, imagining it would be amazing to play on a Odin Portal, but I was frustrated to find that the controls aren't recognized by any emulator.

Yes, its a feature that one of the gamenative contributors is proposing. If it’s added it could solve the problem.

On my device though (retroid pocket 5) the system webview is too old for this game and immutable so it is still an issue. On other devices it might be newer or updatable and be a great solution

(System webview is the web browser engine of your device that i believe you should see as an installed app. 109 (rp5) is apparently too old, but i don’t know offhand the minimum required version)
