For a gaming pad i expected the keys to be more ortho like. the asdw cluster seems very uncomfortable. Never tried it so its my thoughs it could be something good maybe.

the way i designed the layout is basically just putting center of each keycaps on to the placeses where my fingers are touching on ANSI keyboard XD
