I think that would be an improvement! My problem with the mouse is entirely that clicking so much is a (literal) pain, so mouse aim and keyboard click would be better for me personally.
Okay - I think I’m expecting at least one update before the jam deadline, so I’ll see if I can pop that in. (I think it’s literally just a case of shooting out the arm when mouse or key is pressed, and retracting it when both are lifted, but I’ve been caught out by ‘simple’ changes to basic gameplay before!)
