Interesting mechanic where only one action can be active for each tick. I suspect it may be due to the jam time constraints. It took a while to get used to but then I kinda liked-it. This could be rebranded as some sort of rythm-bases MMO (crypt of the necrodancer style) with some cool soundtrack.

100% it's designed to mask ping between Eu &NA & other regions and have everyone play together, but also makes it easier to sync everything without feeling super unfair. This makes the learning curve a bit worth assuming we can improve it's design :D Not in the best shape right now but people been loving it!
