Navigating the Main Menu


Using the Keyboard (NOTE: you can only use mouse to click EDIT CONTROLS; otherwise, it serves no function on menus)
  • Move Up/Down in Main Menu: W and S keys (cursor keys do nothing)
  • Activate (i.e. "click") a Menu Entry: E key. In some cases -- like 'Arcade' menu entry -- this will 'slide open' a sub-menu below the menu entry (see below).
  • Move Left/Right in Sub Menu:: A and D keys.
  • Activate (click) a Sub Menu Entry: E key (.e.g,, to start an ARCADE game, highlight NORMAL or EASY, and then use E key to start game, taking you to character selection screen.
  • Close a Sub Menu: Q key.
  • Return to Main Menu: Q key (in most games, the ESC key serves this function). This is for when you investigate the Options or Challenges, and wish to return to Main Menu.
Navigating the Character Selection Screen

Navigating the Character Selection Screen Using Keyboad (NOTE: Mouse serves no function on this screen, even if you enable kb/m in the beta 4.0 version of Circuit Breakers)
  • Choose Character via Cursor:: "Steer" cursor with W,A,S,D keys until it's over the character you want to play.
  • Start Game With Chosen Character:: E key (when cursor is on top of character you wish to use)
  • Activate Unlocked "Game Difficulty Modifier: "Steer" cursor to the unlock modifier you wish to use. Then use E key.

    These are the five "unlocks" at the bottom of the character selection screen. You unlock these by accomplishing certain Challenges in the game.
