I can use mouse motion to move, Left button to attack. I can use spacebar (or rmb?) to activate the alternate mode.

Basically, have the player follow the mouse, and move the mouse with the player. If you move the mouse slightly to the right, have the character look right. Have the player move right if you move the mouse way to the right.
