Keyboard

This feature has a dependency on jQuery

You can check to see whether a given keyboard key is being held

if (engineInstance.InputManager.keyboard.keyDown("Space")) {
    game.ball.x = engineInstance.InputManager.mouse.worldX;
    game.ball.y = engineInstance.InputManager.mouse.worldY;
}

The string/keycode map is defined as follows:
