Default keyboard and controller bindings for BattleBlock Theater on PC, read from the game's own Controls screens. The Behemoth's co-op platformer splits its fighting across three buttons (weapon, shove and grab/throw), keeps a separate key for the self-destructing Relief, and pans the camera on its own set of keys.
