How to make full use of the in-game camera mode
The control scheme

Many people know that the screenshot button for steam is f12 (default) but many also don't realize that that is also the button to activate camera mode in-game. We are aware of the conflicting buttons and confusion so we'll be changing(ed) the in-game camera mode button to f11 so that it doesn't conflict with the steam default control scheme.

Once you've activated the in-game camera you'll have a variety of button to make use of:



When you hit f12 (which will be f11 on the next fix) You'll have a variety of buttons you can see on the bottom left.

F1 = Low Camera, which is my favorite camera view and the one show above.

F2 = Normal Camera, which is the standard in-game view.

F3 = High Camera, which covers almost the entire level as a view. This will be probably one of the most useful camera views for future updates when we implement the in-game level editor along with steam workshop for level sharing.

F10 = Saving Screenshot. This works just like the steam screenshot button and the camera shots are saved in the same location as the screenshots steam archives. So to locate these files you can access your screenshots through steam and find them in a folder called "thumbnail".

[Right click/hold] = rotate the camera view. This is a fairly important use that people forget about. You're able to rotate your camera viewing angle by holding down the right mouse button. So if you aren't pleased with the default camera angle when trying to take a screenshot then you can just move the camera around for something better.

That's all for now!
Hopefully you all enjoy the game and this guide helps you understand a random feature we added to the game.

Cheers!
