Hi Lemon, thanks for your comment, although in the case of the inverted controls for the ship and camera they had them in previous versions, but I changed them because they felt weird to others too. It's more of a habit issue that should be solved with customizable controls.
About take Randy & Manilla into the educational field, It would be an entry into spin-off territory that might fit with their kid designs. However, it would also feel like that moment in the 1990s when the big videogame mascots tried to enter the educational field (some poorly executed, others decent), or perhaps even reference at Baldi XD.
