Gears Freak

Why are the hotbar keys mapped to 1-0 instead of what the tutorial says?

The Hotbar is mapped to the 1-0 Keys on your keyboard by default, rather than whatever the tutorial may indicate. You can adjust this in the game's settings.

How do I change control mode (keyboard or gamepad) in the game?

You can find an overview of controls in the 'overview.png' file located in the main folder and change the control mode via the menu settings ingame, not through the start menu.

Why do I keep getting a failed to save error when entering new rooms?

Turning off auto-save in the game's settings should resolve this issue.

Game Setup and Troubleshooting

• Make a backup of Game.exe if you want to revert back to the standard RPG Maker player later.
• If using mkxp-z for Windows, be aware that the game heavily relies on Windows-specific functions which may cause issues under Linux or other environments. Ensure compatibility layers like Wine handle these functions correctly.

Navigation Tips

• In the Sewers level, look for a route in the lower left corner of the walls if you are having trouble finding the second rope. It involves some jumping.
