What's your kill button?

I might create a poll for this but I just don't know what the most popular options are. I believe most people still use K. I use Enter just because it's easier to hit. I know of some highscorers that use Up. I think xaelar uses Z...?

K.
Is Enter not too big?

I didn't like how K wasn't near anything, so I changed it to C, which is near my left shift jump. I tried Z but I found that I would occasionally kill myself by accident. Dunno why I didn't pick X.

I use k. It's healthy for your blood-system (you move your hands) , because your hands and body get humble and humbler when you play N occasionally.
Aside from that, I like using k. It never occured to me that I thought I should change it or I am uncomfortable with it.

I use A, which is right under where my index finger is placed when I play.

I use up. I can kill myself faster that way.

I also use up. Perfecting a run is a lot less annoying when you can restart it milliseconds faster.

Hold on. Pet peeve needs to be satisfied.

My little sister has actually been doing this lately, so my impatience with it has been growing. "[Tsukatu], what do people in China usually eat?" "Lots of rice." "Nah, I think they eat a lot of salad." "..."
Anyway, I use the up arrow as my kill button, and down as my pause button. I like having the kill button quickly accessible because I usually prefer to just kill the ninja and start over instead of digging myself out of a mess I get into when I slip up.

I prefer the Klassic suicide key.

Up to jump and right shift to kill so it's all excessively accessible.

I will never understand how you play N with one hand. I've seen your chimneying video, and it makes a ton of sense, but gaming controllers have always been two-handed, so it feels so unnatural to me. My fingers are also not that agile in trying to do multiple things on the same hand. Not sure if this is a cause for or effect of my preference for two-handed gaming.

The guy who showed me the game had it set as up to jump, so that's just how I learned I guess. I tried switching it up a couple times, but failed.

Based on asking a few people on #n-highscores last month and finding that there is still a sizeable proportion of K users there. Satisfied now?

I agree with Pheidi. Like, I don't get the idea that you can both press jump button really fast (which is actually something not quite that easy for the majority - for me it's easy tho) and controlling the ninja.

Funnily enough, I'm the same as Tsukatu.

I have the pgUp and pgDn keys to the left and right of the up arrow, which is directly below the shift key. so i now use those as my directions and shift as jump, which is the same basic shape as l/r/u. plus i get the double shift, and i have the up arrow as pause and ctrl as kill (to the left of pgUp)

I literally cannot wall-jump using up.

I use klassic. My jump key is Z, though.
