This game is awesome, but I do have some suggestions for improvement:

1. Please, please add a fullscreen toggle. Neither Alt + Enter or F11 fullscreen the game, and it kinda sucks that the game can't take advantage of the entire screen.

2. Fix tutorial/control inconsistencies between keyboard and controller. It doesn't show how to zoom in/out when doing the tutorial with a gamepad, which is necessary for smaller screens (such as the steam deck, which I actually quite enjoy playing this on).

3. Improve performance. While I understand that this probably isn't a primary project for you, and that the game's performance is likely hindered by the engine you used to create the game, the 'WIP' in the title gives me hope. From what I understand, the limiting factor is that both this game and DEEP is something to do with how it handles CPU cores. By disabling SMT, this game runs a hell of a lot better, and while I'm not quite sure why, it might help  with figuring out what the problem is exactly.

Other than that, this game is really fun, and I think you have some of the most creative games out there, no matter how well-polished they are. Really looking forward to playing this some more in the future, and wish you best of luck with your future game development ventures.

I understand this is part of a game jam, but is there any plans for updates in the future? I think it’s an awesome game, but performance issues prevent me from playing it without low framerates in the 20’s and frequent crashing (This is while playing on a Steam Deck, and decreasing the number of CPUs in use to 4 by disabling SMT helps the framerate by almost double but makes the game more prone to crashing). As it stands I think this game is super fun, and I genuinely hope you do some updates in the future and maybe even release it on steam. Best of luck :)
