MegaBonk Weird Controls Challenge Guide
The Weird Controls Challenge in MegaBonk flips your brain as much as your camera. Every movement feels wrong, every turn feels reversed, and it’s surprisingly hard to survive. But there’s a quick way to finish this challenge without actually fighting your own instincts.
How to Complete the Weird Controls Challenge
The Weird Controls Challenge simply reverses all your movement and camera inputs. Your W key moves backward, your mouse drags the camera in the opposite direction, and your aim feels broken. The goal is to complete a normal run with everything inverted.
To make it easy, go to Settings → Controls before you start the challenge. Manually invert your horizontal and vertical axes, then swap your movement keys so they line up again.
Set Forward to S
Set Backward to W
Set Left to D
Set Right to A
Once these are changed, start the challenge. Because the controls are already inverted in the menu, the in-game inversion cancels out, making everything feel normal again.
If you’ve already loaded into the challenge, you won’t be able to edit settings. You’ll see a “nice try smartass” message when you try to change them. Restart the game first, adjust the controls, and then load into the challenge again.
Tips for an Easy Clear
Pick a simple, low-aim build. Weapons like Aura, Flamewalker, or Chunkers are perfect since they don’t rely on precision. Avoid weapons that need tight aim, like Sniper Rifle or Dice.
Stick with Tier 1 difficulty for this run. You’ll still earn your reward and unlock progress without any added stress.
If you’re struggling, you can rotate your mouse physically to match the reversed camera movement. It looks ridiculous, but it works surprisingly well for some players.
Final Blurb
The Weird Controls Challenge in MegaBonk isn’t as bad as it sounds once you flip the settings yourself. Reverse your controls before starting, play it like a normal run, and restart afterward if the options stay locked. It’s a quick, free way to grab the silver reward and move on to the next challenge.
