possible i still may have a nice idea due fact of the ONLY 2 KEY rulez... Dont close/end your game when the player die.. what about something like this:
[AnyKey1] == like [Cursor left] or any other key
[AnyKey2] == like [Cursor right] or any other key
Now you have ofcourse two ways to move your object(s)...
But what about exit the game, as its forbidden to use a third key like "Escape] afaik...
So here is my simple idea to fit to the compo rulez and let the user exit the game, when the user wish it.
[AnyKey1] == like [Cursor left] or any other key
[AnyKey2] == like [Cursor right] or any other key
[AnyKey1] + [AnyKey2] == Close/Exit program (without need to check for ESCAPE)
But at least you should know and remember, you can Close/exit a program with pressing [Alt + F4] to use the [AnyKey1 + AnyKey2] combination for something else in your game(s). Due fact of the [Alt + F4] thing you can do something like this:
[AnyKey1] == like [CursorKey1] or any other key to move left / up
[AnyKey2] == like [CursorKey2] or any other key to move right / down
[AnyKey1] + [AnyKey2] == to jump player, to shoot, something like ENTER (accept)
Good luck guys.
