Hey thanks for the feedback!
Haha horses are a particular pain point because of needing to mount them, and then they don't show in trade UI. I think what I'll do is have them show up and just say mounted.
I'm thinking about greatly reducing tutorial and putting most of that in story mode if you've tried that yet.
UI is mostly my fault rather than ai haha still early early early access for sure. I've started polishing it but haven't patched it here yet.
I have a huge patch that I'll put here in a few weeks with a big graphics update and many fixes.
I plan on updating the game about once a month here.
Give it a month or two and give it another try.
Thanks for trying it!
