:implements [java.awt.event.KeyListener]

You probably want :post-init.

You can simplify this with condp.

(condp = key
  KeyEvent/VK_LEFT ....
  KeyEvent/VK_RIGHT ....
  KeyEvent/VK_UP ....
  KeyEvent/VK_DOWN ....)

Concerning the question how to make the applet respond: Dunno what the
best way is. I would probably put the KeyListener into a proxy, which
drives the necessary changes (changing the refs in your example). In
the GUI code I would add listeners to the refs, which update the UI on
change.

Sincerely

Hope some of this helps.
