### How to Fly

**On pointer-equipped devices:** move your pointer to

control your heading, left-click and right-click to accelerate and

decelerate, and hold the spacebar to brake. You can also scroll down

the credits the way you scroll down a conventional web page.

**On touch-enabled devices:** use one finger to control

your heading, and hold another at the top, bottom, or middle of the

screen to accelerate, decelerate or brake.
