I see " also, instead of normal keys, but only in comments during tutorial stage.
Under Preferences -> Configure Controls I can see the keys and am able to redefine'em (see screenshot).
Did you try to redefine the keys?

To learn special combinations, you may take a look at raw tutorial text, it's in /usr/game/hurrican/english.lng
//---------- Tutorial Texts ----------//
Welcome to the Hurrican tutorial level. Here you'll learn the basic controls. You can move left and right by pressing KEY_LEFT or KEY_RIGHT. You can crouch by pressing KEY_CROUCH. Now look around a bit. There are more hints like this in this level.
[...]
The problem is that, for some reason, those "constants" like KEY_LEFT aren't converted and displayed as a real keys during the tutorial...

Greetings!

Thank you for the information on keyboard setup.
Now I really would like to get my multi-button ms sidewinder gamepad to work with the game.
But I cannot remember the steps needed to set it up as the last time I had it working was with Puppy 2.17!
I currently do not know if I have the gamepad set up correctly.
In the Hurrican Configuration screen, all that is shown is "keyboard" and pressing RETURN on it does not change it to Joystick.
I just think that using a joystick with the game would be nice.
Also, joystick is listed in the docs for it.
