Inside features incredibly simple and intuitive controls, designed to keep you focused on the puzzles and atmosphere rather than complex button combinations. The primary actions you'll perform are moving, jumping, and interacting. Mastering these few inputs is all you need to navigate the game's challenges.
- Movement: Use the left analog stick (controller) or A/D keys (keyboard) to move the boy left and right.
- Jump: Press the 'A' button (Xbox controller), 'X' button (PlayStation controller), or Spacebar (keyboard) to jump. A short press results in a small hop, while holding it down allows for a higher jump.
- Interact: Press the 'X' button (Xbox controller), 'Square' button (PlayStation controller), or 'E' key (keyboard) to interact with objects, pull levers, or push/pull items. This is your primary puzzle-solving action.
- Pause Menu: Press the 'Start' button (controller) or 'Esc' key (keyboard) to access the pause menu, where you can adjust settings or quit the game.
