Hi, thanks for playing the game. I agree that an expanded tutorial would likely be helpful for new players.
However, I'm a little confused by some of your feedback. Could you clarify what you mean by missed inputs?
Also, the game is a turn-based roguelike as opposed to operating in real time, so I'm a little unsure what you're referring to when you say you were trying to buy time by evading, since that does the exact opposite by allowing time to pass and other characters to take their turns. You are able to move at an uninterrupted pace when an enemy isn't on screen for convenience, but every step is still taking a turn.
Anyway, thanks again for playing the game and feedback :)
