First of all, thank you so much for playing our game! We apologize for any confusion regarding the game controller.
To clarify, the E button for interaction won’t be active if you’re holding objects in both hands. Please try placing the objects down before using the button.
Secondly, if there is a prerequisite action that needs to be completed before using the E button, you will need to finish that task first. For example, to press the button on the decompiler, you must find the key card before you can use the E button.
Thanks again for playing, and we hope you look forward to the full release!
