Aw, thanks so much! Hopefully we’ll get more ratings soon :)
Totally hear you on the pen controls. We went back and forth and tried a bunch of different control schemes. We were trying to strike a good balance between having some limited mouse influence over the pen’s path while it’s flying around but also ensuring that positioning of the player character played an important role. We would probably iterate a bit more if we had more time, but we liked where we ended up. You can get some very swoopy pen movement if you kind of swing into the throw and hold the mouse button down.
Thank you for the kind words on the narrative, art, and music! We were very pleased that we were able to bring all those pieces together.
