Linux games with controller support

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 = 16.16a = 18.01 USD), but if something is--great--I'd consider spending more.
