Learn the ins and outs of Oni's PC controls, including keyboard and mouse setups, gamepad advantages, and essential combat moves. Master Konoko's movement and attacks!

Alright, let's get you up to speed on how to actually *play* Oni. It's a bit of a hybrid setup, especially on PC, but once you get the hang of it, you'll be pulling off some sweet moves. While a gamepad makes things way smoother for the complex combat, you can totally rock it with a keyboard and mouse too. Think of the mouse as your camera control and also a way to aim your attacks, while the keyboard handles all your movement. It's all about coordinating them!

Here's the rundown on what does what:

Don't let all those keys overwhelm you! The core idea is simple: WASD for movement, mouse for looking around and aiming your attacks. You'll find that combining your movement keys with your mouse clicks for punches and kicks lets you pull off some pretty neat combos. Crouching and jumping can also be mixed in for special attacks, so experiment with those! The diary (press F1) is super handy for checking your current objectives, seeing what gear you've picked up, and keeping track of the story.

Some of the more advanced moves aren't even listed here, but don't worry, we'll cover those later. For now, just get comfortable with moving, looking, and basic attacks. You'll get the hang of it!
