If you want more commands to use you'll have to find them yourself. (Or check the source \/ GitHub)\r\n\r\nThe only two keys you'll need to play this game is 0 and 1, so make sure you have them on your keyboard.\r\n\r\nNot that I know of any keyboards without them, but still...\r\n\r\nPS: You can also press 'R' to reset the level if something goes wrong.\r\n\r\n(Linux builds will hopefully come soon, but until then it's Windows only)","title":"BeatBots"}
