Is there no rotation in this game? Can't do much aiming without that.

I found I could only rotate for about 90 degrees plus/minus. I tried to circumvent the problem by dragging my cursor outside of the window and bringing it back in on the opposite side so I could continue rotating. Strangely, the game sensed I had come in from the opposite side and reset the rotation to the exact same 90 degrees. It's purposefully attempting to be infuriating.
You need to let the browser capture your pointer.
I use Chrome. Is that a specific setting?
On FF it seems sort of fiddly. It should capture (or ask you if it can) any time you click in the window, but in practice sometimes I have to click twice, sometimes I have to right-click and then cancel the RMB menu, etc. YMMV...
On a Mac with Chrome 43, I had a small pop-up at the top of the screen that asked me to allow the page to capture my mouse input.
moving your mouse should allow you to rotate around the Y axis, took about 2 seconds of exploratory hacking to find that out.
