Your keys, your language

Rebind every key in the new CONTROLS screen and play Emberfall in English, German, Spanish, Russian or Chinese.

Emberfall 1.4 is out, and it is all about making the game yours.

Your keys

  • A new CONTROLS screen in the options: every key can be rebound - move, drop, jump + fire, a second fire key, pause and reroll.
  • Pick a key that is already taken and the two simply swap. Esc cancels.
  • The arrow keys always work on top of your own layout, and the controller keeps its full layout.
  • Every hint in the game - tutorial, chapel, menus, how to play - now names the key you actually use, or the pad button while you play with a controller.

Your language

  • Emberfall now speaks English, German, Spanish, Russian and Chinese. Pick yours under OPTIONS > LANGUAGE.
  • The hand-typed pixel font learned umlauts, accents and the whole Cyrillic alphabet, and Chinese is drawn crisp and pixel-sized.
If a translation reads odd somewhere, tell us in the forum. Thanks for playing!
