If you're making a JavaScript game that takes keyboard input, please use the KeyboardEvent.code attribute (instead of .key).
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/KeyboardEvent/code
> this property returns a value that isn't altered by keyboard layout or the state of the modifier keys.
Your players who don't use a QWERTY layout will thank you.
