Thank you so much for the kind words and I'm so happy that you enjoyed the game and story so much 😭💕
There will be auto-forward in the remastered version! ....... actually it might even be there in this version, I can't actually remember when I added it. You just need to press A on the keyboard to toggle it on and off. It's a bit of a blur in my head when I added some of the new features so I can't remember -- but either way, A to toggle auto will definitely be there in the remaster!
