just do

kaplay();
onUpdate(() => debug.log(getLastInputDeviceType()));

then connect a game controller. Press a button, it changes to gamepad. Use the keyboard to change it back to keyboard and then move a stick on the controller, it doesn't change to gamepad. Also, clicking changes it to mouse but moving the mouse does not.

Since mouse move and gamepad stick are "passive", maybe KAPLAY can be set to only look at them for getLastInputDeviceType() if the game attaches a onMouseMove or onGamepadStick handler and ignore these otherwise.

There would be the problem of dead zones with this. You would have to specify a region that is to be considered no input because of stick drift.

We could add an option for it later. Maybe a dynamic way to modify game options? setOptions() and getOptions()?
