Handler notes

Free game. Only multiple keyboards and mice are supported as this game lacks native gamepad support.

After all the instances have launched, resized and positioned correctly, press the END key to lock the input for all instances to have their own cursor. You need to left click each mouse to make the emulated cursors appear after locking the input. Press the END key again to unlock the input when you finish playing. You can also use CTRL+Q to close Nucleus and all its instances when the input is unlocked.

Create a match in one instance then click on find match in the others, join the match and click ready, wait until all players are in-game.
