This control reference page is a comprehensive list of all actions available in the Overgrowth alpha. The main goal of this page is to detail all main functions and discrete maneuvers that can be executed. For editor controls, check the editor interface page. Please review this page with each alpha release.

Player Controls

These functions are used when controlling a Player Character.

'Cmd' refers to the '⌘' key on Macs, and the 'Ctrl' key on PCs.

Character Movement

Action Control Behavior
Forward W Moves player forward.
Backward S Moves player backward.
Left A Moves player left.
Right D Moves player right.
Crouch Shift Makes player crouch.
Roll Shift while Moving Makes player roll along the ground, somersault while airborne, and regain control of its body when 'ragdolled.'
Jump Space Makes player jump. Hold longer to jump higher.
Wall Jump Space or Shift Player jumps (space) or somersaults (shift) away from the wall.
Wall Run Hold space while running on a wall Player runs up a wall when coming at it straight on; runs along a wall if coming at it from an angle.
Ledge Grab Hold right Mousebutton Makes player grab horizontal ledges. Using the A and D keys will shimmy along the wall and even around corners. Using W will cause the character to pull himself up the ledge and releasing RMB allows the character to drop back to the ground. Note: The character must have free hands to ledge grab (e.g. weapons that cannot be sheathed will block ledge grabs)
Pick Up a Weapon/Item Hold Q If close to a weapon or item, picks it up. Note: The character has a slight animation that must complete before you can release the Q key and still hold on to the weapon. Note 2: Weapons can even be picked up while rolling provided the character is close enough.
Drop a Weapon/Item Press Shift + Q while looking down Drops weapon. Note: Character must be on the ground to drop weapons or items, and dropping applies to contents of both hands.
Sheathe/Unsheathe a Weapon/Item Press or hold E Sheathes or draws items or weapons. Note: Only one-handed weapons can be sheathed.

Attack and Defense

Note: You need a live and hostile character less than around one meter away from you in order to be able to attack.

Action Control Behavior
Punch/Kick Left mouse button Context sensitive. Depends on whether or not the character is in motion and their distance. Exact attack may change depending on the controlled character.
Throw a Weapon Press Q If close to an enemy, the weapon will be thrown. Larger weapons are less accurate; Knives and spears work best. If the enemy has detected you, he may catch and use the weapon.
Slash (While holding weapon) Left mouse button Makes the player attack with a weapon in the hands.
Active Block Right mouse button If you tap right mouse button as you're being attacked, you'll perform an active block that will leave your opponent open for a moment.
Active Dodge Movement Keys If you move in a direction as you're being attacked, you'll perform an active dodge that will work against weapons while unarmed.
Judo Throw Hold right mouse button If you press and hold right mouse button as you're being attacked, you'll perform a counter throw on your opponent, in a136 this was changed to only be possible after a successful active block.
Choke Hold Hold right mouse button Choke holds are only possible if an enemy has not yet detected your presence. From a choke hold you can render the enemy unconscious with your hands, cut their throat with a weapon, or move them a short distance.
Throat Cut (While in choke hold) Press Left mouse button Quickly cuts the throat of enemy in choke hold.
Leg Cannon (While airborne) Left mouse button You'll kick with both legs towards the enemy's chest area, launching you towards the sky and your opponent to the ground.
