Issues unresolved
Controls hints cut off at wider resolutions
- Temporarily setting the game resolution to one with less width will allow to see the hints.[4]
Issues fixed
Controls settings arrow isn't functional
- Instead of clicking with the mouse, press the arrow button on the keyboard or the controller to access the Camera Control bindings.[5]
Pressing X at prompt doesn't work
- The game will display a button prompt with an X on it. ← Backspace is the actual button to press.[6]

- The app ID (906100) may differ in some cases.
- Treat backslashes as forward slashes.
