Hi Seolifrost, thanks for this feedback!
As you mentioned the game is in a *very early* stage of development - I completely agree that the interface makes ZERO sense and I will be putting in work to make it far more usable for the future!
Workbenches pay off in the next update (Food and farm) as you can craft usable warehouses and stoves - where food can be stored and meals prepared! That being said the Workbench UI and controls need work too (Arrow keys and Enter is not intuitive!)
I like think of the current version as a tech demo and a prototype of what is to come! As the project progresses I want to add functionality and overhaul the User experience / graphics.
My Takeaways from this feedback
- Dialog with mouse should be an option
- Keyboard mappings in settings to allow viewing / setting controls
- Character customization crashes
- Hide Map maker and CC dev tools until they're in a more usable state
- Provide walkthroughs explaining the UI in current state (If its not intuitive, it should be explained!)
Thank you so much for your feedback!
