Thanks for the feedback! during game development, we did kind of realize that it involved a lot of walking so we tried to add in some other things to spice it up a bit, but we do realize this flaw in the gameplay. The timer was put there mainly as just sort of something to use if you were going to speedup, but just note, speedrunners were not the core audience. Again thanks for the feedback and thank you for taking the time to play our game!
