Description

User Story

As a player, I want to use keyboard shortcuts to quickly access menus, so that I can navigate the UI efficiently without relying on the mouse.

Description

  • Players can use hotkeys to open key menus (e.g., I for Inventory, M for Map, Esc for Settings).
  • Menu shortcuts should work at any time unless restricted (e.g., during cutscenes).
  • Pressing the same key again should close the menu.

Test Cases

  • Verify that pressing a shortcut key opens the correct menu.
  • Ensure that pressing the key again closes the menu.
  • Confirm that menu shortcuts function properly in different gameplay states (e.g., exploration, combat, puzzles).
  • Validate that shortcut settings can be customized in keybind options.
  • Ensure that menus do not overlap or cause UI conflicts when opened via shortcuts.
