Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn is the flashy new soulslite on the block, and that means it's got one hell of a control scheme. But fear not, here we'll list out all the controls for all platforms.

Please note that Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn supports custom binding for all input methods, so if there's something not to your liking here, you can change it at will. It also has support for other keyboard layouts, such as AZERTY and DVORAK, which is a very nice touch you don't see in most releases. Some other additions include the ability to assign dodge to a double-input of a movement key when using keyboard, (meaning you'd dodge right if you double pressed A), and allowing the use of mouse movement for switching targets as opposed to using the mouse wheel.
It's great to see that despite having a controller be the suggested input method, the developers haven't slacked on providing some much needed quality of life features for Mouse and Keyboard users.
