Analog Stick is a passive item added in The Binding of Isaac: Afterbirth †.

Effects

• +0.35 tears up.
• Allows tears to be fired diagonally.
  • With a keyboard or using buttons to fire with a controller, tears can be shot at 45-degree angles by holding two buttons. This is known as eight-directional firing.
  • With an analog controller, the analog input is accepted, allowing full analog aiming in any direction.

Notes

• Enables full directional firing for keyboard and mouse users with the accessibility option EnableMouseControl enabled.

Synergies

• Cricket's Body/ The Parasite: When tears are fired diagonally, the split tears will also move diagonally.

Interactions

• Book of Virtues: Summoned wisps are unable to shoot diagonally, and will shoot upwards or downwards instead.
• Compound Fracture: When bone tears are fired diagonally, the bone shards will not always move diagonally.
• Epic Fetus: No effect because missiles already can be fired in any direction.
• Incubus: Incubus cannot fire in non-cardinal directions, only tears up applies.
• The Ludovico Technique: No effect because the tear can already move in any direction.
• Marked: Overridden by Marked.
• Mom's Knife: Only the tears up applies, as Mom's Knife can already be fired at 45-degree angles without Analog Stick. However, if the player is using an analog controller, then Analog Stick is helpful as it allows full 360-degree movement.
• Tiny Planet: Overridden by Tiny Planet.
• Tractor Beam: Overridden by Tractor Beam.
  • Tractor Beam now can be controlled.

Trivia

• The name and item sprite is a reference to a part of controllers used for moving characters and the camera in video games.
