I am using Chrome on Mac. I am trying to use arrow keys but they just make the page go up and down. They don't go through to the game at all.

That information pointed me to a direction. I can confirm that I have the same issue on my Linux machine an Chrome, however things work fine on my Win8.1 machine.
The good news is, I found some sources that point to causes and solutions.
Basically, some say it's something YoYo Games did in their patch sometime since November 2020. Someone mentioned that a workaround is to programmatically set window focus somewhere somehow someway. I will investigate and if it works, I will spread the news. :)
