Title: Option to setup default controls in a game.
Post by: Antikore on October 19, 2018, 07:08:08 AM

This sound stupid but the default controls in Platform Builder are hard to control. Why not add an option to select the default controls the player will see in a game when it starts from the first time! :D

I don't think this is necessary.

Really? You just don't have friends like the ones I have... :D
They use the Ctrl as jump default!

I use shift for jump. Arrow keys for movement, space for attack, ctrl for item pick-up, alt for item use.

I use arrow keys for moving, X for jump, Z to attack, Space to use item and Shift to take an item.

Hmm... I assumed I was the only one who used arrow keys. I know that most people use WASD.

Depends on the game and the quantity of controls it has.

Also, WASD is more often in 3D games!

Don't forget that you can use Gamepads! If you have an Xbox controller with a USB port, you can play your games with that.
