Hardware controllers question (Mac related)

Topic: Controllers.

I am not really a gamer so I have a basic question regarding controlling an object in my Unity Project.

I have a robot which is maneuvered using the WASD keys. But, for users at my computer they have a problem quickly touching the WASD keys. They want a physical hardware controller like the XBOX controller. However, my Project is all on my iMac and XBOX is not Mac-compatible.

Is there an alternative? One idea I have is to cover the keyboard with a plastic stencil thereby revealing only the WASD keys. Silly idea I guess!

Any users here (Mac users?) have an alternative idea please?

Or alternative key combination suggested?

Thank you.

Use a standard USB controller, or use the Xbox controller.

So it is possible. I found information such as 'Xbox One controller for Mac' at

I will ask around my colleagues tomorrow for an Xbox controller to test this.
Thank you.
