Controls ​

OpenBallance reads the keyboard and the mouse directly (gasm 0.5's raw input), so the controls are the original's, and the keys can be changed in the game's own Options.

KeyGame
Arrow keysroll the ball, move in menus
Enterselect, continue the tutorial
Esc (tap)pause menu, back
Shift + Left / Rightrotate the view by 90°
Spaceraise the view
Qskip the tutorial
Mousethe menus: move it to show the cursor, then point and click

Holding Esc for a second quits gasm-run (in the browser it stops the game). In fullscreen the browser itself takes Esc to leave fullscreen.

A gamepad works as well: the d-pad rolls the ball, A and Start select, B pauses, the shoulder buttons with the d-pad rotate the view, X raises it and Y skips the tutorial.
