How to Play "Bedtime Hero"
Welcome to the whimsical and eerie world of "Bedtime Hero." You are the child's trusted toy robot, on a mission to reach the child's most cherished pacifier in each dream level. To navigate this surreal dream world, you'll need to master a few key controls:
Objective: Find the Rotating Pacifier to end the level.
1. Grappling Hands:
Left Mouse Click (or the leftmost button on your gamepad) activates the left hand grapple. Use it to interact with levers, buttons, and other mechanisms to manipulate the dream environment.
Right Mouse Click (or the rightmost button on your gamepad) launches the right hand grapple. This allows you to pull yourself toward wooden pillars and other objects, helping you traverse the dreamscapes.
2. Jump:
Press the Spacebar to make your toy robot jump. You'll need to leap over obstacles and reach higher platforms to progress through the dream levels.
3. Horizontal Movement:
Use the WASD keys (W for forward, A for left, S for backward, and D for right) to move your toy robot horizontally through the dream world. Explore, navigate, and solve puzzles by moving around.
4. Pause the Game:
If you need a moment to catch your breath or make adjustments, press the Escape key to pause the game. This will allow you to take a break and access game options.
5. Full Screen Mode:
"Bedtime Hero" is best experienced in full-screen mode. To activate full-screen mode, please click the full-screen button located in your browser's interface.
Now that you're familiar with the controls, you're ready to embark on this captivating adventure. Uncover the mysteries of the child's dreams, outsmart the lurking menace under the bed, and make your way to the child's beloved pacifier at the end of each nightmarish level.
Remember, you are the bedtime hero, and it's your duty to bring comfort and security to the child's darkest dreams. Good luck and enjoy your journey through this enchanting and eerie world!

Known bugs:
- Mouse disappears after completing the level and you get stuck in the main menu. Refresh browser
- Falling down has some places that normally would allow you to walk up, but it is likely you get stuck (top of tilted pillars). There is another way up though!
- Hit boxes of levers need tweaking. Try again with some slight offset if it seems you dont activate the lever (using the left hand grapple).
- Plenty of glitches and unfinished ideas :)
