Hey, tysm for the detailed feedback! I'm going to check that soft-lock, it may just be a small glitch... So to be clear, does the "No! It won't work!" text appear at all after failing, or do you just infinitely walk around in a blank room immediately after failing? Fortunately you should still be able to finish the update without completing the minigame (just close and reopen the game), but I'm going to try and replicate it later.
Ah yes, the keyboard/mouse thing. You can totally make it through with your left hand on WASD/space in the update, mostly because progressing with the mouse sets up glitches while simultaneously having options to select also using the mouse. But if it becomes too much of an issue with others I can totally fix it :)
