SNES Controller in CSS
One goal was to make it work using a mouse, keyboard, or a gamepad connected to the browser (I had to add a pinch of JS for that 😉), and it works! If you plug a game controller into your computer, you will see the buttons pressed as you press on the physical controller. The Gamepad API controls that, and I also used a library I developed to make it easier to handle (the Gamepad API is a bit different to other Web APIs.)
