Getting Used to the Controls - Yozzaxia1311/MegaManLove GitHub Wiki

The default controls

Mega Man Love's controls are binded to keyboard keys by default:

Key Bind name NES equivalent
Up Up D-pad up
Down Down D-pad down
Left Left D-pad left
Right Right D-pad right
Z Jump A button
X Shoot B button
C Slide N/A
Enter (or Return) Start Start button
R-Shift Select Select button
A Previous weapon N/A
S Next weapon N/A

If you look at the disclaimer screen, you'll notice some more controls; most of these are fixed to the keyboard and cannot be rebinded:

Key(s) Action Is a cheat
Alt + Enter (or Return) Toggle fullscreen mode No
1-9 Resizes the window using game screen size * the number pressed No
Escape Rebind controls. This action only applies to the disclaimer state No
Tilde (~) Toggle the in-game console No
Ctrl + O Save quick state Yes
Ctrl + P Load quick state Yes
Ctrl + R Begin recording Yes
Backspace End recording No

The disclaimer doesn't mention the console key or any of the cheat keys, which are for debugging purposes (Learn more here). With these controls in mind, navigation should be simple.
