yeah, the keyboard controls aren't great but I didn't really know how to make the layout since I haven't really done something like this before. Any suggestions to make it better?

There are a lot of different control layouts that people prefer on keyboard but I think a good rule of thumb or ~rule of index~ is: choose between WASD and arrow keys, then pick a row or cluster of keys that you can comfortably reach with your index finger while resting your thumb on space (with the other hand).

I don't recommend using numpad keys for default (bc you don't know if someone it using numlock or not or even has a numpad). If you're using WASD you can use shift which gives you access to all 5 fingers on the left hand, but ctrl is contorversial so maybe don't use it unless you have to. My prefered layout is WASD, JIO (+ semi colon if I need an extra right hand key) but every one is a bit different.
