Hey D0mS,

If I understand correctly, you want to play the game and you use the French/AZERTY layout? It's not possible to rebind the keys, but you can temporarily change your keyboard setting to QWERTY as a workaround.

To do so, use the following command:

setxkbmap us

Then restore the AZERTY setting once you're done:

setxkbmap fr

You can put it in the game starting script start.sh. Change the fragment in the line 16, so it will look like this:

run_game() {
echo "Running ${GAME_NAME}"
export LC_ALL=C
cd game
setxkbmap us
./"SUPERHOT.x86_64"
setxkbmap fr
}

Warning! This will change the keyboard setting in your entire system to QWERTY, then restore it to AZERTY once you quit the game.

Thx a lot linuxvangog. I didn't think to do it with a script. It's perfect.

This is preposterous.
