Understanding the controls is paramount to navigating the world as a toddler. Movement is primarily handled with the W, A, S, D keys for forward, left, backward, and right respectively. You can toggle between walking and crawling using the Left Ctrl key. Crawling is essential for fitting into small spaces and moving stealthily, while walking is faster but makes you more visible and audible. The Spacebar is used for jumping, which is often more of a small hop, but crucial for reaching ledges or interacting with objects.

Interacting with objects is done by pressing the Left Mouse Button. This allows you to pick up items, open doors, and manipulate environmental puzzles. To drop an item, simply press the Left Mouse Button again. Your most important companion, Teddy, can be hugged by pressing the Right Mouse Button. Hugging Teddy provides light in dark areas and offers comfort, which can sometimes reveal hidden paths or clues. Experiment with these controls early on to get a feel for the unique movement and interaction style of the game.
