Key Jamming


I was recently informed of a bug where some players found themselves unable to jump while running with their eyes closed. As it turns out, this is a fairly common problem for new game devs of which I was unaware. I don’t understand the entire problem, but it all comes down to certain keyboards only detecting certain combinations of multi-key-presses. To make these keyboards work for players playing Insight, I’ve added two additional keys that can be used to close the player’s eyes.

If anyone knows a better fix feel free to elaborate.

TLDR: If you experience key-jamming, use z or ctrl instead of spacebar to close your eyes. You can also try using the arrow keys instead of WASD.

Just as Pecaminosa's musicians #improvise this rendition of #LittleSunflower 🌻, so do we improvise with this post you're reading. 😂

What's coming out of your own improvs? 🤔

Been working lately on lots of 'behind-the-scenes' boring stuff that no one really cares about, so here’s a guy playing the sax for some reason.

A house I've built a while ago. :)

It nicely separates the snowy biome from the grassy one.

It's built with painted Ebonstone.

I worked so hard to get all four of them to the end safely, but then...

If you have more of an acquired taste, the restaurants in Niravasi have you covered! Maybe skip the salad bar, though.

I mostly build 3D First Person Shooter game mechanics in Unity, and in this I'm just showing C4 mechanics I made for a little side project I am working on! :)
