Abstract
The disclosed computer-implemented methods and systems cause a second screen device to display custom-built layouts once the second screen device has been converted to a video game controller. For example, the disclosed methods and system convert the second screen device to a video game controller for a video game being supported by a digital content system and displayed on a separate first screen device. In response to detecting a trigger event, the disclosed methods and systems replace a standard layout on the second screen device with a custom-built layout. Where the standard layout is limited to standard video game controls at standard positions, the custom-built layout includes any type combination of customized video game controls, colors, graphics, animations, and so forth. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.
