"This isn't their first Goo controller, however... in June we got a taste of the Goo controller's version 1. That variant focused more on the translucency than on the 'mysterious glowing orb' that is the concept we have in front of us today. Disclaimer, An Improbable Future's designs are all made using AI, so glean from that what you will."
"I, for one, love the idea of a controller that looks like a tactile dream come true. Soft curves that the palm can wrap around, maybe a slight rubbery texture for good grip as well as ergonomics, and inner glowing lights that have the entire controller come to life, not just the buttons. While companies are relentlessly chasing transparency as a design trend, this translucent design aesthetic desperately needs to kick off."
"Designer: An Improbable Future The bulbous design feels reminiscent of the Switch Pro controller, with short, stocky arms that give the controller a compact height while still providing grip. When off, the controller looks fairly ordinary, thanks to the cloudy black plastic/rubber that makes up its exterior. As soon as the lights come on, it's like the controller has been brought to lif"
Gaming peripherals often fall into two aesthetic camps: black plastic with RGB or sharp, alien-inspired shapes. Soft, translucent form factors with inner lighting can convey futurism while feeling approachable. The Goo controller concept emphasizes soft curves, a possible rubbery texture for grip, and internal glowing elements that animate the whole shell rather than only the buttons. A bulbous silhouette with short, stocky grips suggests compact ergonomics similar to the Switch Pro. These designs were generated using AI. A wider adoption of translucent, tactile aesthetics could broaden mainstream controller design choices.
