Exactly, and now I believe it's time to add the mouse to aim all around. I really truly believe it will be overall better. It works for the side scrolling game because it is a side-scroller. This game is no longer a side-scroller.

You're welcome! Good luck with the game!

As you can see though, before I figured out how to make it go away (which I have no idea what I did), this is how it looked and it doesnt seem to want to fade now.

I somehow seemed to have turned the writing off. Now when I hold ALT it pops on the screen and when I release it, it goes away.

It does seem to be fading now. When I first played, I think I was collecting new things so often that it was going so high up the screen and taking a while to go away. It didn't seem like it was fading so I was thinking it wasn't go to. This game is great though.  But, there seems to be some issues with crafting things. I can't click on the campfire to build it. I do have everything for it. And I can't seem to put my ability point anywhere. It says I have 1 point left and I need to be level 2 which I am. Is there a different way to do these things? NVM on that

Awesome thanks. I'll reset it and try it again, maybe it went away. I'll update you on it in just a few minutes.

Is there anyway to fix the fullscreen issue? I put it in fullscreen before to try and fix the problem but now its just a black screen when I start it up and I cant change the setting back. I can hear the music just cant see anything.

Oh yeah sorry, yeah I would like to try the new build for sure

Yeah I can see where you were going with that. The problem is that the game isn't just a side-scroller, You can move vertically too so you need to be able to swing that way. Other than that it was really good. If you can change that a little I think it will do well.

Awesome! Nice job on the game though. I seriously loved it and will definitely buy it. If you need help with making the english sound better, let me know.

ohhh sorry then, I did download it straight from the Itch app though. Is the correct version on there?

Thats really weird then, because it wasn't fading for me at all, it just kept going all the way to the top of the screen. Which really sucks because I really liked this game as soon as I started playing it so I want to keep playing. Ill try again and see if it happens again.

This game really is pretty bad. No dash, movement is too slow, first level is too little so I can barely get any weapons, guns run out too quickly,  the first boss is basically impossible, too many things spawn in around him and launch too many things, with no dash its pretty much impossible. You really need to rethink these mechanics. Dying over and over again to the first boss because movment is so slow, no dash, barely and health, and guns running out of durability too fast is not fun.

There needs to be some kind of dash, pretty impossible to outrun some of the projectiles. You need some way to dodge them.

Can't play. It goes to the tutorial and it seems like half the screen is cut off. I can't see the character, but when I press buttons I can hear the sound. Cant get it to work at all.

Going fullscreen would probably fix it, but fullscreen doesn't work, just a black screen. Atleast for me it's not working.

Don't you think it would be a good idea to not display the help text and text for everything you pick up right in the middle of the screen that continuously scrolls upwards, so we can actually see the game and see where we are moving, etc? Kind of a bad design to have the text right there don't you think?

I agree, and I honestly don't understand why people don't do this. It's like the absolute norm of gaming. WASD, mouse aiming, 1234 for abilities, etc is how most games are set up and I feel like making the controls all weird just drives most players away.

Kinda sucks, you cant look up and down to swing, only side to side so you constantly die to things coming from the top or bottom. You need to make it so you control the sword with the mouse and make it so you can look around and swing a full 360 degrees, and use WASD to move, only being able to swing two ways really ruins the game

It's a really good game, but I think you should be able to keep your items that you find or buy if you go back to the top. Kinda makes it pointless to keep buying things  just to lose them all if you leave. Obviously  if you die you lose them.

Actually think I figured it out, pushed the map button and then put an x on a different island and it let me go. But the "Hull resistance" upgrade doesn't work at all?

Theres like no way to leave the ports? Push "E" to anchor, but then how do you leave? You just get stuck there...
