I am currently learning how to use key bindings. I was toying with the code I wrote, and I noticed when I press two keys (arrow keys), only the last one would run. Should I simply use KeyListener or is there a way to make this work? Since its a game, it would have to be able to run over 4 keys at the same time.

@Override
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
switch(key){
case "right":
game.screen.xOffset+=2;
break;
case "left":
game.screen.xOffset-=2;
break;
case "up":

}
}
}
This is the code
and I noticed when I press two keys (arrow keys), only the last one would run
Because only events are generated for the last key pressed
Should I simply use KeyListener
This is true whether you use a KeyListener or KeyBindings. Its the OS that generates the event.
Since its a game, it would have to be able to run over 4 keys at the same time.
So the solution is to track each key as it is pressed/released
Check out Motion Using the Keyboard . The KeyboardAnimation
example shows how this can be done with KeyBindings.
Do what I recommend in my linked to answer :
HashMap<Direction, Boolean>
that is changed when an arrow key is pressed
