How to crew Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime with phones

Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime is about running around the inside of a pink spaceship, jumping between turrets, engines and shields while everything outside tries to kill you. A stick and a couple of buttons is all it needs, which makes it a great phone controller game. Here's how to get a full crew aboard.

Here is what using it looks like

1. Open QR Controller on the PC and set Controller Type to the Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime layout.
2. Add a controller for each crew member. Two works, four is the real experience.
3. Everyone scans the QR code on screen with their camera. The controller opens in the browser, no installs.
4. Launch the game and everyone hops in from the menu!

What's on the phone

A movement stick, JUMP, Fire/Use for whatever station you're at, and Back for menus. There's also a Space-pet button, since the game has a space pet.

The game is way better with four people than with two, and phones make four players easy. Everyone already has one in their pocket.

Small tip: this game is a great pick when your group has someone who "doesn't really play games". Put them on shields, they'll do fine.
