How to play Boss Level - Pumpkin Madness
There is no tutorial to sit through — the game explains itself. You will want a keyboard for this one — the arrow keys / WASD carry most of it, and the table below has the rest. The game runs in portrait, so on a phone you can play one-handed, and on desktop it stays centred rather than stretched out of shape. Most players get the hang of it inside two or three attempts.
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.
