MoveMaster is a thoroughly odd, unique and very interesting device that you might want to take a look at to change the way you game. I've had one for a little while now, donated thanks to a reader, and I honestly think it's awesome. One of my favourite gadgets to hook up for a gaming session, although it does depend on the game.
You would use the MoveMaster in place of a keyboard, for smoother movement and interactions with the game. It takes some getting used to, but it really can making gaming feel not just different but a little bit more exciting.
Using it is really simple. You rest your palm on the top of it, and simply move your palm around on it for the movement. It's weirdly smooth and actually feels a lot more natural in certain games compared with pushing down keys on a keyboard or flicking sticks with your thumbs on a gamepad. Highly configurable in the software, which directly supports Linux too, which is pretty rare for a hardware vendor.
If you have small hands (like me) you can move up the buttons on the front of it too, getting that perfect fit, which is a nice touch. Same with the bottom thumb button.
They also recently announced a version for left-handers too, that has the two thumb buttons on the opposite side of the unit.

Corben on Twitch has a video of it in action on Linux with Everspace 2. Unfortunately, I forgot to save the previous livestreams with it on I did on the GamingOnLinux Twitch, because I'm a true professional of course.
Their team just announced a brand new easier to use website, and they can now ship directly to the UK. Want to get it a bit cheaper? They have a 10% discount code "Launch10" right now.
See more on the website.
I’m guessing Space Engineers needs too many keys to be practical. What about Astroneer
I’ll have to look for some videos showing. It sounds super interesting.
