Jump with Return or Space, these also make selections on the menus. You can jump while airborne for a double-jump, though you will lose all control until you land

Setting Abilities
These are learned and used in Ability Mode and Mission Mode. You can equip 2
abilities out of the 30 available. Each mission you complete grants you a new
ability, while getting a grade A will learn you a second ability from the
Mission. In Ability Mode, attaining grade A learns a new ability.
Combo
Collecting the same type of loot in a row will result
in a combo, during combo, score is increased by 50%. If you have Master Combo
ability active, combo also adds a 15% increase towards an items contribution to
a clock appearing.
Level
Every 20 items you will level up. The value of loot is
multiplied by level, meaning a higher level nets you faster score, however,
level also works against you. Roaming items will move faster, making them harder
to steal, and static items will take longer to reappear when stolen, meaning you
can't rely on them as much either.
