I first played this going through the BBS cart on my Picotron and I wasn't sure of the controls. So I went with normal Pico-8 controls at first but lots of odd things happened.
First started using the arrow keys, which let me move the guy around, but he couldn't shoot. Then I realized, left mouse shoots, so I shot, but then the arrow keys stopped working so he didn't move anymore. Ok, tried the WASD keys and he could move and shoot still with the mouse button.
After I killed all the first enemies he briefly stopped moving and the WASD keys allowed him to shoot in all directions. Then after shooting a bit, the WASD keys stopped shooting and let him move again.
It was very odd and am unsure why that happened with the controls. This was using the new Alpha Build 0.2.0d
