I'm on an old laptop with Ubuntu installed and sadly the left & right arrows are unresponsive so the classic way of playing games with navigation (ie: racing) isn't available. I got a TBS (turn-based strategy) game on steam (supporting SteamOS + Linux) so I'd rather get something which its main gameplay (it could be secondary) isn't strategy-based. And since my set of arrow keys isn't complete, it would either need to not use them (I think the vast majority of games do) or use a controller. I'm mainly hoping for racing and space navigation.

Thank you kindly

Update 1: I usually search Steam for games <= 24 CAD (on the day of this thread creation = 16.16€ = 18.01 USD), but if something is--great--I'd consider spending more.

Space navigation? I haven't played it myself, but I've heard good things about Star Traders: Frontiers.

I did not capitalize it as it's not a game name, I was trying to describe a genre; that you fly around space and do various tasks, or worse case just visit planets, space stations, and the like.

Was your suggestion either

1. did not normally use arrows to play, and if it normally use them can be reassigned, but providing a good experience with a normal laptop keyboard (ie: if the keys would be reassigned in a manner that doesn't make it difficult to play) or
2. provide controller support?
