After putting some more time into the game, I'm more comfortable with the two-button system. I guess the decision would impact the learning curve for new players more than anything else. I haven't bought any upgrades at the moment, so I haven't used the second button for anything other than dropping from a rope yet.

Then again, this game was designed with analog steering in mind, so this is something to consider.

Well, I'm totally fine with always steering at max on keyboard when you're actually driving Roly through a level. I really only want more sensitive turning for when you're lining up your shot. Again, as I'm playing more, I'm learning to get by with the features I have. Namely, Roly turns slower when revving up the shot, so I can get higher sensitivity with that, and I'm also learning to correct my shot by turning Roly mid-stroke.

Also, don't have any controllers on hand at the moment, sorry.

Yeah, I think that showing Roly's speed mid-stroke wouldn't do a whole lot for the gameplay; it probably wouldn't even be anything other than just a bit of visual polish. If you think that you'd want to implement it in a separate meter to have it make sense, it might just be best to leave it out for the sake of not cluttering up the UI.
