Knight Tyme

Controls

Left − Right	N − M	Joystick	↔
Up / Jump	A	Joystick	↑
Down	Z	Joystick	↓
Menu / Select	Space	Joystick	●

The keyboard controls are fortunately redefinable as the defaults are quite cumbersome. Strictly speaking, there are two independent but partially overlapping sets of controls. Moving around is done by left, right and up, the latter for jumping. The menu system which is used for everything else is navigated by up, down and fire.
