These aren’t the easiest to find, but here’s some that are useful!
(Taken from the osu! wiki – page found here)
I frequently use…
- Ctrl + Alt + Shift + S
- F7
- F8
- F10
- CTRL + O
- F12 / SHIFT + F12
- Alt + Arrow up/down (volume while in song select)
Hotkeys below!
There are many shortcuts in osu! that can be utilized while in-game or while idle at any screen.
They are listed out with their functions below.
Note: some of these keys can be changed in the options!
However, the list below presents the default keys.
Though the game mode was originally made as an imitation of the Beatmania style of playing, osu!mania allows changing the number of keys or vertically flipping the orientation of the playfield (this means that it can be made to look more like Guitar Hero 5 keys or Dance Dance Revolution 4 keys and so on).
