>but this game doesn't seem to allow swapping between controller and keyboard/mouse without a restart...
Never mind that. I was wrong.
I thought the game just sets the input type based on whether a controller is plugged in on start-up -- and, well, that's exactly what it does by default -- but gamepad controls can also be explicitly disabled from the pause menu. So I can just do that for biology class. If there's a stick sensitivity or deadzone adjustment option then I'm too lazy to find it, and doing anything precise with a thumb stick is always hell anyway.
