Colorful Xbox Icons

🎮 **Bring colorful controller icons to your Hollow Knight: Silk Song experience! **

✨ Module Features

  • 🎨 **Colorful Icon Design** - Injects vibrant color into the otherwise monotonous button icons
  • 🎯 **Xbox Controller Exclusive** - Tailor-made for Xbox controller players
  • 🌈 **Light up Pharloom** - Add a bright color to the dark game world

📥 Installation Guide

  • Drag and drop the folder in the compressed package directly to the game root directory
  • Select the replacement file when asked
  • The game root directory is usually located at:

`C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Hollow Knight Silksong`

💡 **Tips**: You can quickly access the game directory by right-clicking Silk Song in the Steam library → Manage → Browse local files

🔄 Restore the original version

It is recommended to back up the original file so that you can restore it at any time:

  • File location: `C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Hollow Knight Silksong\Hollow Knight Silksong_Data\StreamingAssets\aa\StandaloneWindows64\atlases_assets_assets\sprites\_atlases`
  • Backup file: `buttons_main.spriteatlas.bundle`

If there is no backup, you can also restore the original icon by verifying file integrity through Steam.

Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions

  1. Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
  2. There is no universal mod manager for this game: some mods replace game files directly, some go into a game-specific Mods folder, and some need a game-specific community loader or tool first — follow the bundled readme.
  3. Place the files exactly as the readme says; mods with listed dependencies need those installed too.
  4. Launch the game to confirm it loaded; some games require enabling mods in settings or an in-game mod menu.

Install locations vary a lot between games and mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.
