i dont know what it is but at that very point where in need to run and glide, it jsut isnt possible!
like i can run by holding z but in that certain area up button then doesnt do anything.
or jump but then pressing and holding z doesnt do anything if i havent landed yet.

i dont know what that is

after closer examination, it seems like when pressing z, right and up  arrow together, the left arrow jsut isnt registered.

in contrast z+right+up does work.

only z+left+up doesnt work together.


ages ago i read about some keyboard electronics where some keys cant be used together cause they are on thesame electric line or soemthing, mayb its that.


i have a german qwertz keyboard, for reference

That's super weird, but I am familiar with that general problem with some keyboards. I don't know if that's something I can fix with a technical solution. However, it is possible to rebind the keys with TIC-80's built-in options menu, so perhaps I should add a note about that in-game.

Also, I am planning to make the game less platformer focused and more story driven, so the problem may just go away then? :)

I dont mind the platformer part,  I like metroidvanias in general.
The keyboard thing wasnt too much of an issue,
only the one place I mentioned was a bit challenging due to it.
but everything else was easily possible
