The text has become an artistic decision long ago. I need to move on with the plot.

Submitted(+1)

Played the web version, wandered around trying to progress - got the transmission and headed for the car again when apparently the time ran out and I lost.

Only part of (right half?) the settings button is actually clickable.

When changing the audio in settings and closing the settings menu without saving the slider keeps its place even though the volume hasn't actually changed.

All text is blurry or looks like its scaled wrong.

Dexterity is an odd name for what it does, I'd have expected something like energy.

Its pretty hard when you're starting out to grasp what is going on and what you're actually looking at. UI and layout of everything is very confusing. 

Things don't scale well when you zoom out on the map, hard to know what you're even looking at. Example:

Should be possible to use scrollwheel for zooming and WASD/arrows/mouse drag to change view of the map. Right now you can't even zoom in and drag the map to check what something is before moving there - especially important when there's a time limit. 

Looks like dead enemies' turns are processed too?

Not sure what the scavenge button is good for, not to loot corpses you come across it seems. Pretty odd that you have to go into the turn based mode to loot them instead. Although it didn't seem to work one time as I could not walk onto a corpse (I had a screenshot but I lost it, whoops).

It seems there is quite a lot to the game but the confusing UI and layout of everything makes it hard to get to it.

Dead enemies are processed because the dead can cast spells in certain situations. Check out Second Chance.

I changed the pause menu button collisions.

Middle click and the toggle zoom button changes WORLD map zoom.

Continuing the post, the boat looks normal when you press toggle zoom (highlighted) or middle click.


I address some more points in your post, including the ability to look over the entire map.

New avatars, some rebalancing and some new story content.
