Feedback on The Pawn

ahope1 · June 2017

Just downloaded The Pawn from itch.io. Great work, very impressive!

Some initial observations on the Mac version (I'm on OS X 10.10.5 Yosemite (yes, yes, I know, I know!)):

When you type "quit", the game ends but there's no obvious way to restart..?
The compass rose control is confusing, especially when the scrollbar obscures it. It needs a separate button on the toolbar.
Tutorial bug?: https://www.dropbox.com/s/4radq0vashpm17w/The Pawn remastered screenshot 01.png?dl=0

Hi,

Thanks a lot for your feedback.

Typing "Quit" should restart the game. On my mac here, it will restart the game and prints the start message again. is there another way you're quitting?

Compass rose; do you mean it should cover the image as well, or do you mean there should be a compass "pop-out" toolbar button. I like the toolbar button idea.

Tutorial bug; yes, it doesn't check that you haven't expanded the picture for the placement of the bubble tail. I'll make a note of this.

Glad you like it!

Ah, yes, quite right! My mistake.
