It literally does not get simpler than that. It's practically a video game staple. We don't need three separate keys for the same action, and I should be able to easily and fluidly move the character without moving my hand all across the keyboard.
Please keep this in mind next time you design a game like this, yeah?

Well the three keys weren't for one movement because you could move horizontally, too. As someone with a num pad I didn't have any problems with the controls myself.
Yeah, I agree, I wasn't sure at first, too. I just tried it out because it didn't make sense to have 3 keys for one movement. A simple note saying that diagonal movement was possible would have helped.
The controls weren't bad, they were just really poorly explained. As I said in the news comments, a simple diagram would completely eliminated any confusion.

I hate this game but then again I hate 99% of the games on every pet site I've ever been a member so I'm not the best example here I guess...
Anyway, the explanation of the controls didn't make it any better for me, I really hope that this is going to get improved should this game stay on site after Morostide.
I was thinking the same thing. I kept hitting the wrong down key since it wasn't one I was used to. I had no idea that there was diagonal movement involved and actually got annoyed at the ghosts because they were moving so and I lost quite a bit until I got a lucky round. Definitely should have put a blurb about that somewhere in the directions! Diagonal movement is pretty rare, at least with that key setup.
