Inventory Mouse Use

🎮 **Make "Hollow Knight" more suitable for keyboard and mouse players! **

I play almost all my games with a mouse and keyboard. Hollow Knight (and Silksong) was primarily designed for controllers, with keyboard and mouse support being only an afterthought.

The goal of this mod is to make the game more friendly for keyboard and mouse players! 💻

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.
