Haha this is a crazy idea, it went from 0 to 100 when I finally figured out how to use the portal thing! I would say the next step would be to create free aiming with the mouse - it kind of feels counter-intuitive to have that necessary, but only dictating the direction you face. Also I love how the gatekeeper looks!
