Keyboard + mouse gives you independent movement/aiming as well.

What does the Spider Roll Web ability do anyway? I never figured out how to use it correctly. As for Enemy Targetting also turned off, that seems doable, but much harder for bosses or enemies that fire tons of bullets, where you'll be spending almost all of your effort dodging. How does the charge shot work without targeting anyway?

For the 8 seconds that you have the spider web ability, you lay web behind you in a straight line, like the spiders do. Any time you turn sharp(ish)ly, it starts a new strand. When an enemy tries to cross a strand, they either move really slowly or get stuck, I'm not sure (either way, the boss didn't manage to escape my web during the time it was there, which I think is about 30 seconds). It's actually a really cool ability and it's been implemented really well, especially for an ability that you only get for 8 seconds at a time from a single(?) item. When I get around to making mods, I think I'm going to have to make a spider form, so  get to play with it more.

Charge shot still homes in on enemies without enemy targeting on, you just can't dictate which enemies. I think it always goes for the closest ones, but I'm not sure - it sometimes seems to avoid passive creatures a bit, but I may be mistaken.
