I love pixel art indie games, and I also love point and click style adventure games. Both remind me of my childhood in the early 90s playing Lucasarts games my dad brought home on cd Roms. This game seems like it could be fantastic, but the controls are so frustrating it’s very hard to get into and enjoy. 1. “2 finger click” is almost impossible. If you have manly hands (like myself) 2 fingers span across ¼ of the width of the screen….and now the game has no idea where you’re trying to click 2. When you click the hotspot button, your character goes running towards the left side of the screen because it also thinks you’re clicking to walk to that point Generally it just needs thought through better. I don’t know this for fact, but it seems like it is probably a PC game that was ported to mobile and wasn’t thought through very well…the round pegs were just crammed into square holes and the dev called it a day. Tweak the controls and it’ll probably be great

I loved it, I had no problems with controls or finding objects on my IPhone 14! I had a great story with great voice acting. I’ve died all the different ways. I’ve reached multiple different endings. It’s not an easy game but it’s not so hard that you don’t even wanna play. everything makes sense that I have figured out so far. I think this game is a lot better than people are giving it credit for. Anyway I loved it, still only finished about half the endings, because some of the endings take repeating over and over I took a little break from it because of course repetitive things can get boring but sometimes it’s worth it to find out the ending like in “12 minutes”.! Hope we get more of these

The visuals, animations, and voice acting are great! But the interface for touch screen has a few problems: 1) the cursor from the PC point and click version is on the screen at all times and moves to wherever I tap on screen. It’s very distracting and unnecessary. I would removed the cursor entirely. 2) tapping to move works great, but it’s also registering outside the screen in the letterbox areas (on the top and bottom of the screen). This is a problem, as anytime I hold the “highlight interactive elements” button, I start walking in that direction, away from the elements I want to see. I think clicking on the top and bottom black bars should NOT make you move. 3) tapping with two fingers works… but the surface area of two fingers is pretty big and it’s hard to click accurately, especially in the corners of the screen. A “use” button at the bottom of the screen could fix this. Or perhaps a “tap and hold” command.
