Getting Started Guide

Four quick tips to get the best out of your Nanogames

1. Choose Your Control Method

From the "Player Settings" menu (top left), choose "Player Settings".

From the Player Settings panel, select your control method. Options include Keyboard, mouse and touch screen. Alternative keyboards and mouse devices (headmouse, eye tracking) are also supported).

2. Quickly Change The Speed Of All Games

The fastest way to alter all the games is to use the 'Global Game Speed' slider (displayed near the top of the main screen). This control can be used to quickly adjust the speed of all 30 games (up to 90% slower). It's great for experimenting with the settings for all the games or for quickly adjusting the settings of all games for a new player.
