Oh that's not good. If that was within the Stripe popup it seems to be a Stripe issue. Did you use a password manager to autofill the input elements? I sometimes run into issues with that on various websites. The game is primarily opti

I agree! That's why we made the conscious choice not to show choreographed battle animations through overlays like similar games in the genre do. On the landing page you can press shift (or hold Y on a Gamepad) to speed up AI actions.

The magic interaction to see this info is long pressing on anything. This is one of a few interactions that works consistently on all input methods since my goal is to provide the same experience across all platforms. When playing the real

You are all correct, both about calling it NUX or FTE* and that the game should teach players better. That's been recurring feedback, and the actual game once it fully launches (after Early Access) will feature a gentle introduction –

I started building this game while I was on paternity leave after our second daughter was born. At the time it was a fun side project, and I was sure I would ship it in some form, but I never even thought about founding a company and findin

Oh that sucks. If you don't mind helping me troubleshoot the issue: Does this also happen with a Chromium based browser? Any chance you could profile using Firefox's web tools and send it to me (Find my details on twitter.com&#x2F
