- DONT SPLASH controls follow standard Roblox inputs, with some actions depending on the experience.
- Movement: W A S D on PC, virtual thumbstick on mobile, left stick on console.
- Headphones are strongly recommended — the entity hunts by sound, so audio setup matters more than graphics.
- Moderate camera sensitivity lets you check noises without overcorrecting.
- Crouch is experience-specific: verify the layout before relying on it.
DONT SPLASH Controls Overview
DONT SPLASH is a sound-based poolrooms horror obby on Roblox, and its controls are built on standard Roblox inputs. Because the entity cannot see you but hears every splash, the way you use movement, camera, and interaction inputs directly determines how much noise you make. Before entering dark corridors, take a few minutes to learn the full layout for your platform.
The table below covers the core inputs on PC, mobile, and other supported platforms.
| Action | Computer | Mobile | Other Platforms |
|---|---|---|---|
| Move | W, A, S, D | Virtual movement thumbstick | Left stick / platform standard |
| Look Around | Mouse movement | Drag across touch screen | Right stick or camera control |
| Jump | Spacebar, when enabled | Jump button, when enabled | Standard jump input, when enabled |
| Crouch | Experience-specific key, if available | Experience-specific touch button, if available | Experience-specific input, if available |
| Interact | Prompt or experience-specific key | On-screen interaction prompt | Prompt or platform-specific input |
| Audio/Display | Roblox and in-experience settings | Roblox and in-experience settings | Platform audio and display settings |
Crouch is not a default Roblox action. Check the in-experience control layout before you start, and never assume a crouch key exists until you confirm it inside DONT SPLASH.
Recommended Setup for Each Input
Every action in DONT SPLASH serves a survival purpose. Jumping adds noise, fast turns expose you, and interaction prompts require careful camera positioning. Use these recommendations to tune each input for quiet, deliberate exploration.
Movement Inputs
- Keep controls unobstructed and comfortable
- Use a thumbstick position you can hold precisely
- Slow inputs reduce accidental splashes
Camera Inputs
- Use moderate sensitivity to check sounds
- Avoid overcorrecting on fast turns
- Center camera on prompts before interacting
Jump Input
- Keep it easy to reach but easy to avoid
- Jump only for navigation or obstacles
- Never spam jump while hiding or listening
| Input Area | Recommended Setting | Why It Matters |
|---|---|---|
| Movement | Comfortable, unobstructed layout | Precise control lowers splash risk |
| Camera sensitivity | Moderate, not maximum | Check noises without large body movement |
| Jump | Reachable but not accidental | Jumping is a noticeable noise source |
| Interact | Camera-centered activation | Reduces failed prompts and repeated attempts |
| Crouch | Verify before starting | Cannot be assumed on every platform |
Before your first serious run, spend one minute in a safe starting area testing each input. Learning the layout early prevents panic mispresses when the entity is already tracking your splashes.
Audio and Display Settings
In DONT SPLASH, audio is a survival tool, not background flavor. Environmental sound changes, repeating cues, and unusual activity can all signal that an encounter is beginning, which makes your audio configuration as important as your movement controls.
Wear headphones
Headphones let you determine the direction of splashes, footsteps, and entity audio cues far more reliably than speakers.
Keep effects audible
Balance music and effects so quiet environmental warnings are not buried under loud ambient tracks.
Adjust brightness carefully
Raise brightness only enough to distinguish nearby surfaces in dark poolrooms. Excessively bright settings reduce the atmosphere without improving your awareness.
Test before deep exploration
Enter a familiar early area, confirm you can hear subtle cues clearly, then begin your run.
| Setting | Recommendation | Priority |
|---|---|---|
| Audio output | Headphones | ★★★★★ |
| Effects volume | Clearly audible | ★★★★★ |
| Music volume | Balanced below effects | ★★★★ |
| Brightness | Minimum readable level | ★★★ |
| Camera sensitivity | Moderate | ★★★★ |
If you must compromise, prioritize hearing over seeing. The entity tracks sound, so a clear audio picture of your surroundings provides more protection than a bright screen.
Platform-by-Platform Configuration
Roblox input behavior can vary by device and by the controls exposed in each experience, so the same action may feel different across platforms. This quick configuration flow works for every supported device.
Open settings before spawning
From the official DONT SPLASH experience page, check Roblox settings and adjust sensitivity and audio first.
Confirm the in-experience layout
Look for any custom key or touch prompts the experience adds, such as crouch or item use.
Calibrate movement feel
Take a short walk in a safe area; adjust thumbstick or key comfort before crossing open water.
Finalize audio and brightness
Apply the headphone and brightness guidance above, then begin your run.
For platform-specific input behavior, the official Roblox input documentation describes how computer, mobile, and gamepad controls are handled across devices.
Pre-Run Controls Checklist
Run through this checklist each session, especially after a Roblox update or a new DONT SPLASH patch that might change inputs.
Before Entering the Poolrooms:
- Confirm movement inputs are comfortable and unobstructed
- Set camera sensitivity to a moderate level
- Connect headphones and balance audio levels
- Verify whether crouch exists in the current layout
- Set brightness to the minimum readable level
Do not jump repeatedly while deciding where to go, do not sprint blindly through open water, and do not treat fast turns as harmless. Each of these adds noise or exposure that the entity can track.
Controls FAQ
Q: What are the default DONT SPLASH controls on PC?
Movement uses W A S D, the camera follows mouse movement, jumping uses the Spacebar when enabled by the experience, and interactions appear as on-screen prompts or experience-specific keys. Some actions like crouch are experience-specific and should be verified in-game.
Q: Does DONT SPLASH support mobile controls?
Yes. Mobile players use a virtual movement thumbstick, touch-drag camera control, and an on-screen jump button when enabled. Interaction prompts appear on screen. Check the touch layout for any experience-specific buttons before starting.
Q: Why do my controls feel different from other Roblox games?
Roblox input behavior varies by device and by the controls each experience exposes. DONT SPLASH may enable or disable specific inputs like jump, and may add its own interaction or crouch controls, so always check the in-experience layout.
Q: What is the best DONT SPLASH settings setup for survival?
Use headphones with effects clearly audible, keep camera sensitivity moderate, and raise brightness only enough to distinguish nearby surfaces. These DONT SPLASH controls and settings prioritize hearing threats and moving quietly over visual clarity.
