Tips
Lost your cursor? Press Esc and click the canvas again to re-engage pointer lock. Browsers will rate-limit this if you spam it — wait a few seconds between toggles.
Stuck on a block? Sneak (Shift) and walk off. Or break the block underneath.
Want a higher framerate? Press F to reduce render distance. Mobile and low-end laptops benefit a lot.
