How to play Meteor.io
The opening minute doubles as the tutorial. On desktop the arrow keys / WASD do the moving; the full mapping is in the table below. The game is wide rather than tall — fullscreen is worth it on a monitor, and on a phone the picture is much better sideways. Expect the first attempt to be a write-off; that is normal here.
Controls
| Input | Action |
|---|---|
| Mouse | Navigate menus and interact |
| Arrow keys / WASD | Move |
| Spacebar | Primary action |
On mobile: Tap and swipe on screen. Turn your phone sideways — this game is designed for landscape and fills a horizontal screen.
Why it is worth playing
The reason Meteor.io holds up is restraint: it takes one idea — .io games — and builds the whole game around it instead of padding it out. That is the whole pitch, and it is enough.
