How to play Battle Space
You can work the whole thing out by playing it. Keep a hand on the arrow keys / WASD; everything else is listed in the controls table. Portrait layout: hold the phone the way you normally do, or play it centred in the page on desktop. There is no penalty for failing, so push a little harder than feels safe.
Controls
| Input | Action |
|---|---|
| Arrow keys / WASD | Move and jump |
| J / K / L | Punch, kick and block |
On mobile: Tap and swipe directly on the screen. The game is built for portrait, so you can play one-handed without rotating your phone.
Why it is worth playing
Battle Space does one thing and does it properly. There is no bloat around the edges, which is exactly what you want from a arcade game in a browser tab. Nothing about it assumes you have played it before.
