Game input holds PET matrix keys down until you physically release them, which is best for arcade games. Type input keeps the original short-tap queue for entering BASIC commands.
Charset Auto lets PET software switch normally. Graphics or Business forces the selected character ROM for compatibility/testing.
Changing RAM or ROM resets the PET. Some programs need ROM2/ROM4 or 16K/32K.
The sound slider controls the emulated PET VIA speaker. Modern browsers require a click before audio can start, so Start Game also enables audio.
The emulator has an IEEE-488 device at address 8 for loading/saving .prg files.

Game Notes
DEMON! is a game of tag played on a screen full of PETSCII obstacles. Every time the player (a circle) catches the "demon" (a different circle), a new opponent will spawn. The game flows quickly, and the demons are hard to catch. The keyboard buffer is the true enemy in this game—your buffered movements will cause you to overshoot your quarry if you aren't careful.
In addition to the keyboard controls, you can use a joystick to play this game. I don't think PET joysticks were common, but they were an option.
