Thanks for you suggestions. We'll keep the scrolling in mind, we will make
both the ctrl and the escape cancel-buttons and the enter also an action
button. We won't use the mouse, because it's a console-style RPG, and it
should also work with a game-pad only.
jump down? I guess it's too high :) ... We'll also keep it in mind, but I
don't think we'll implement it.
