Setup

The first step is to launch the game. You should see a window open that looks like this

The next step is to click on input and scroll down until you see an option that says vertical. Double click it and press any key (I chose spacebar for convenience)

Breaking the game

Now that you have set up your vertical key press the button labelled 'Play!'
Once in game press whatever button you bound verticle to and you should appear to turn. Since you are 2d when you turn sideways you will become invisible!

Taking it further

If you would like to break the game even further hold down your vertical button and A or D at the same time. You should turn into a strange compressed deer and eventually start falling out of the game!

Thanks for reading!

Shhhhh, the first rule of The Deer Club is not to talk about the secret level underworld

The best ever guide for this game... of the whole steam community

Earlier I saw a Jump mapping for the gamepad.
Thought: Jump goes vertical, right?
Mapped W for up/vert and thought I was very clever.
Unfortunately "Vertical" is apparently another dimension.
Instead of going up, I warped sideways, sliding deeper into the 2D plane and ended up behind tree, but with one leg sticking *through* to this side.
Like I'd gotten splinched.
Still thought I was onto something, until I went vertical behind the sea cliff.
Time/Space warped as I fell THROUGH the sea floor.
The background scrolled up off the top of my screen, leaving nothing but a uniform tan and my hoof cursor, which bounced faster and faster, until reaching a steady speed.
So I knew The Deer had been falling, and had eventually reached terminal velocity.
Finally I hit ESC to bail out, not knowing if he was falling toward a sticky end, or through an infinite void.
Then I found your How to Beat The Deer Guide and saw I was doing pretty much everything wrong in this game.
Now sticking to D.
