+ Both keyboards and joysticks/gamepads are supported. You can change the
+ controls via the Options menu. Basically, the only keys you will need to
+ use in-game are to do the following actions: jump, duck, right, left, power
+ and 'P' to pause/unpause the game. There isn't much to tell about the first
+ few, but the "run" key allows you to run and use the power of the powerup
+ you got. For instance, with the fire flower, you can shoot bullets (note
+ that this is the only power currently implemented).
