Aww hey, thank you so much!! I'm really honored that you took the time to try to enjoy the game even with the challenges with the controls! Were you able to physically click on the "Keep Playing" button in the pause menu? Since I wanted to "free" the cursor while on that menu, clicking the resume button in particular should recapture the mouse whether you're in fullscreen or windowed mode. :) It definitely needs a better solution so I'll be updating this game for sure post-jam!
I sure appreciate the kind words and thanks again!
