Hello!
First, I would like to thank for that GREAT game. I've been looking for a long time to have a modern ascii roguelike. I've been waiting for this release for a very long time. I've been playing for a week now. And here is a small suggestion regarding the keyboard mode.
I love to play in keyboard mode. But i noticed that while I look at my STATUS by pressing "S", I can move the cursor with the UP/DOWN arrows and hit "ENTER" to see the description of the stat. I would really like to press enter again or the down arrow to close it instead of pressing ESCAPE.
That was my 2 cents!
Thank you!
Hi CMuSS! Welcome and thanks for your input.
That sounds like a great idea. So great (and easy) that I've already made the change in response to your post here. Expect it in Alpha 3--Up/Down/Enter now close the window as well. By next week you might not need it anymore, but it will benefit other players down the road :P
Glad you're enjoying Cogmind and I'm also really happy to be creating this modern take on an old genre that deserves it (without going down the whole "roguelite" path, that is).
Oh, and on a related note, right now I'm in the middle of adding a new section to the manual that explains all the "advanced UI" abbreviations and other features that aren't otherwise described anywhere and experienced players have been just figuring out over time, so that should be of help, too :D
Wow thank you so much for this!
And long live to CogMind!
