Description

Hardware version: 2.0

Officially Licensed for Xbox

The Proteus Builder is a modular, one-handed controller. It is not a traditional gamepad replacement; instead, it provides the movement and input set of the left side of a controller in a compact, snap-together form factor. It is designed to be the "movement half" of a PC setup or a standalone solution for specific simple games with minimal input.

Two Ways to Play

1. The Mouse & Stick Setup (PC) This is the primary way to use the Proteus Builder. It replaces the "WASD" keys on your keyboard, giving you fluid, 360° analog movement in your left hand while maintaining the precision of your gaming mouse in your right hand.

2. One-Stick "Cozy" Gaming The Builder functions as a standalone controller only for games that do not require a second analog stick. It is an ideal, relaxed solution for "Cozy" titles and indies such as Balatro, Vampire Survivors, Stardew Valley, or Slay the Spire. With the ability to map a second input layer you can have access to the most important inputs.

Key Features

Full Remapping: Includes 8 remappable buttons, a remappable Left Stick, and a remappable L3 button (stick click) to suit your specific layout.
Function Switch Mode: Using the Proteus software, you can toggle between two distinct input layers. This effectively doubles your controls, giving you access to secondary commands (up to 16 total) without moving your hand.
Tactile Mechanical Switches: All buttons and levers use responsive mechanical switches for a crisp "click" feel, similar to a high-end gaming mouse.
3D-Printed Ergonomics: The shell is manufactured using high-strength polymers to create complex, hand-fitted curves that traditional factory molds cannot replicate.
HID and GIP Switching: Instantly switch between Controller Mode (GIP) and Keyboard Mode (HID). This allows the Builder to act as a native Xbox/Windows controller or as a keyboard/mouse device for maximum compatibility and custom mapping on PC.

Product Details

Full Customization: Features 8 remappable buttons, a remappable Left Stick, and a remappable L3 button (stick click), allowing you to tailor the layout to your specific playstyle.
Function Switch Mode: Included software allows you to toggle between two distinct input layers. This "Shift" capability effectively doubles your available commands, giving you access to secondary functions without moving your hand.
Custom Shape: The hand grip is 3D-printed using high-strength polymers. This manufacturing method is used specifically to create the complex, ergonomic curves required to fit a human hand comfortably.
Mechanical Switches: All buttons and levers use tactile mechanical switches that provide a responsive "click" similar to a high-end gaming mouse.

Technical Specifications

Direct Compatibility: Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, Windows 10/11, and Steam Deck.
Adapter Compatibility: Nintendo Switch and PlayStation (requires a third-party adapter, such as the Brook Wingman).
Software: Includes access to the Proteus WebApp for remapping buttons, configuring "Function Switch" layers, adjusting thumbstick sensitivity, and setting up custom macros.

Excellent kit, great fun and enjoying building the controller in different configuration. Highly recommended and will be looking to buy the bigger kit.

Cool idea. Experiance lag wirelessly that really hinders gameplay. Have to run with cable.

Fantastic control device, So many different systems I can interact with in a way best suited to me. Only reason its not 5 starts in the 3D printed mouse case. Mine was brittle and four of the buttons broke off when it fell off the table and onto the floor. The rest of it, quality, design, thought, configurability, all just amazing.

I love this thing. Considering buying another kit so I can do more combinations for a better controller

I purchased the Proteus builder on Amazon, it would not let me add a review. This controller works well. Like most gamers I am always looking for a better or easier way to control my games. I purchased this in hopes that I could use it in place of a mouse, which does work but with some limitations. I think this is a great product and a step in the right direction for modular gaming controllers.

Bought as a gift for a friend, who has difficulty playing games for long periods due to mobility issues. She loved this as a gift and hasn’t stopped using it since she got it!

The kit is really nice. Though I purchased some right handed shells on the side and they arrived damaged. The left hand spare is fine, and the Proteus builder is of quality, just waiting to hear back about my damaged goods. Ups is more likely to blame.
