Core controls
CheckEverything in Project Smash runs through a small set of inputs. On keyboard you attack with left click, jump with Space, and dash with Q. Console players use X to attack and L3 to dash. Blocking with F (RB on console) reduces incoming damage, and pressing B (R-Dpad on console) triggers emotes.
- Attack bound to left click on keyboard, X on console
- Space for jumping usable up to three times in a single airborne sequence
- Q on keyboard or L3 on console to dash toward or away from an enemy
- F on keyboard or RB on console to block and cut down damage taken
- B on keyboard or R-Dpad on console for emotes
Aerial moves: Uppercut and Down Slam
StepOnce you leave the ground, two powerful moves open up. The direction your camera is pointing when you click determines which one fires. Both moves knock enemies in the direction of the hit.
- Jump get airborne using Space (up to three times if needed to gain height)
- Aim up for Uppercut tilt the camera upward, then click (Y on console) to launch enemies upward
- Aim down for Down Slam tilt the camera downward, then click (B on console) to drive enemies downward

Common questions
FAQWhat should I do first when I start playing?
Get comfortable with left click to attack, Space to jump, and Q to dash. Once those feel natural, start experimenting with aerial moves by jumping and tilting your camera up or down before clicking.
How do I pull off the Uppercut and Down Slam reliably?
Both moves require you to be airborne, so jump first. Then tilt your camera clearly upward for Uppercut or clearly downward for Down Slam before you click.
Do I need to spend Robux to reach level 200?
No. The level cap of 200 is reachable through regular play without any purchases.
Are there codes I can redeem for rewards?
Yes — as of October 1, 2026, there are four working redeem codes tracked for this game. Check the code section on this page for the current list, since codes change over time.
