keyboard and mouse control scheme?

[georgli]

To whom this may concern or to someone willing to investigate:

Does the game offer at least rudimentary mouse and keyboard control or is it gamepad only? What does the control scheme look like? Can all keys be remapped?

Does this game recognize input from the windows On Screen Keyboard?
The On Screen Keyboard can be started by entering OSK at the Run... Textbox.The keyboard will most likely work only if the game is in windowed mode. Can the game be played in windowed mode?

I'm asking because I have a physical disability that prevents me from using a standard hardware keyboard or a gamepad. I just don't want to buy a game that I can't play because of this.

Thanks a lot for your help!

The game's standard controls are the arrow keys for moving, and the ctrl-button allows you to move objects around. For what I checked and noticed, there were no options to change the standard controls from what they were.

You don't need to use your both hands though on standard keyboard as both of the ctrl-buttons work, so you can play it only using the arrow keys and the right ctrl-button. I don't know how it works with XBOX-controller as I own a PS3 myself, but in the options it states that a controller could be used.

For your question about OSK, there were no settings in the game that would allow it to be in windowed mode, and I don't know of any modifications that would allow it to be so. So using the OSK seems not to be an option for this game.

I hope this helps!

I'm sorry for double posting, but making sure that you would notice;

I found out that you actually CAN play this game in windowed mode, it just does not appear in the settings. Used Google and found out how to get it into windowed mode - and you actually can use the OSK for playing this game! Just do the following;

"Q: I want to change the resolution or run in windowed mode
A: Limbo is carefully designed for fullscreen 720p so this is the recommended setting. However as some people really like to tweak these things we have added an option in the settings.txt to change backbuffer size and a setting for running in windowed mode. To run in windowed mode change “windowedmode = false” to “windowedmode = true”

And there you have it! Just do that after you've installed the game, and you can play it in windowed mode.

Cheers, have good time playing this wonderful game.

i dont think you can remap the keys, but the ctrl and arrow key setup isnt bad once you use it for like 5 minutes

I usually play with a controller, but one day I was eating chips with my right hand, and my left hand was free to play Limbo using the arrow keys and right control key. Not bad.
