Adding binding of Isaac style controls (which lets you use the arrow keys to choose the direction you want to shoot in) will not only allow keyboard players to have better control but it will also help later on when adding gamepad support. (making the analog stick mimic the arrow keys).

Ive tried to add this myself and cant get it to work properly, I can make the character face the right direction using the arrow keys but I cant manage to make them shoot.

So yes this is kind of a request for somebody with better java skills than I to try and put this into the game.

Heres the code in the reddit edition repo to show how they added it, the code needs to be changed a bit to work with the maescool version.

Thanks in advance to anybody who attempts this. :)
