Hi! Thanks for the kind words. The only way to go through the scenes a bit faster is by holding the "Accept" button (x, left mouse...), but you'll still see the scene flash by.
I could also code a better skip functionality that darkens the screen and makes them go by much faster with a dedicated hotkey or key combo.
I added a fast-forward function for cutscenes. Hold Backspace or Accept+Up and the screen will go black and fast-forward until the scene is over, or if you let go of the buttons. This will only work for close-up cutscenes, but not for scenes happening in the top-down view.
I've updated both the free and the donation version.
