Oh yes, last day functionality always goes this way doesn't it? It's too bad. 9 days is not a lot of time to make a game for sure! I'm excited to see the post-jam version of the game. Regarding the speed of turning or walking I do think making them faster is a good idea. Probably about 2x speed. Although I love instant step so I might be biased towards fast movement.
I'll make sure to give it another go post jam :)
