Whether you are new to Deios or looking to brush up on the basics, this guide is your companion to understand key mechanics like dodging, movement, and utilizing in-game controls to navigate through the arena effectively.

To alter keys in the game, navigate to the Launcher and select the Gamepad Menu. Here, you will find the game pad settings where you can modify the controls to suit your comfort and play style.

Moving still for a while gives you double reloading speed, so learning how to position your attacks is a huge bonus in Deios and a core feature to beating the game.

Charge Jump is a vital movement mechanic to master in Deios. To execute a Charge Jump, hold down the default key ‘S’. You will notice a charge-up sequence; upon completion, press the jump key to execute a large jump, allowing you to pass through projectiles unharmed and propelling you higher with a slight teleportation effect.

Tip: While in the air, pressing the charge jump key enables a downward dash, allowing for quick corrections in mid-air.

• Some in-game upgrades will enhance the teleportation effect and further increase your jump height.
  
• While charging up, your character will duck, making it easier to evade projectiles.

The Dash mechanic aids in maintaining airtime, enabling advanced maneuverability and providing strategic advantages in positioning. Dash takes in the speed you are moving and continues it, so the moment you use it can have a variety of effects.

Rolling is especially useful for dodging enemy attacks and navigating through tight spaces. Understanding the timing and execution of rolls will significantly enhance your gameplay experience.
Tip: Rolling and pressing the charge jump key at the right moment prevents penalties from falling from large heights.

Effective dodging involves baiting bosses to target specific parts of the map where you plan not to be, maintaining constant movement to avoid being an easy target.

• Utilize your jumps, dashes, and rolls strategically to dodge attacks while maintaining optimal positioning.
  
• Staying static makes you more susceptible to attacks.

Leverage jump and speed upgrades in tandem to maximize their effectiveness. Select upgrades that complement your playstyle and help you traverse the arena more efficiently.

Always be aware of your positioning in relation to enemies and environmental hazards.
Tip: Position yourself to easily dodge incoming projectiles and maintain a clear line of sight to your targets.

Mastering Deios requires practice and patience. Don’t get disheartened by initial failures. Keep practicing, learning from each game, and you will see improvement in your gameplay.
