Change the default controls

The default controls can be changed in Nibbles to suit your preference or for multi-player games, when having more than one set of controls becomes necessary. To change the default controls:

  1. Start a new game.

  2. On the Controls screen, press the settings button for the player whose controls you want to change.

    Player 1 controls Worm 1, player 2 controls Worm 2, player 3 controls Worm 3 and so on.

  3. In the Controls list, select the line of the Action. This highlights the line.

  4. Select the Key on the control. The words New accelerator… are now present in place of the old control.

  5. Press the key you want to use instead of the default key.

    To keep the old setting click New accelerator… again, right click on New accelerator…, press Esc or click anywhere else inside the Nibbles Preferences box.

  6. Repeat the above step to change the other default keys for the current player, then select the tab for the next player whose controls you want to change and repeat the process.

For example, to use A to move left, select the Action Move left, then select its Key, then press A on your keyboard when you see New accelerator… on the line.
