To select the character you want, click and drag the circle with you player number on it to the little picture of the character you want.

Once the characters for everyone are selected, you need to decide how difficult you want your computer players to be. In the above picture you can see that below each CPU, there is a little slider that lets you select the CPU's difficulty. The further right the slider, the more difficult the CPU. Nine is the highest level of difficulty.

In the top right corner of the character select screen there is a little blue button that says, "Options." If you click that button, the above screen pops up. Again, this is not necessarily the way the final options menu will look. In this menu you can decide how long the match will be, and/or how many lives you get. You can also determine the damage ratio, (how far you want people to get thrown when hit with an attack,) the item frequency, (how often items appear,) the start damage, (how much damage you start out with,) and whether or not to display the player number. When you're finished, click done to return to the character select screen.

In the bottom left corner of the character select screen there is a little blue button that says, "Customize Controls." If you click that button, the above-left screen pops up. Again, this is not necessarily the way the final customize controls screen will look. here you can decide what controls you want to use. If you are playing against someone else, you can decide what their controls will be too. To change their controls, click the word edit, and the above right screen pops up. Then press the key you want for that particular thing. You can set up controls for four people, and up and jump may be mapped to the same key. Once you are done, click back to return to the character select screen. Once everything is set up the way you want, click, "GO!" In the final game, you can tint your character to different colors.
