I now see your reasoning for slower movement speed in another comment. I will say the slow saunter of MC in the game does absolutely give it a more cinematic look - and from an artistic point of view I think you succeed there, but it's harder to stay engaged as a player who is looking to just play the game. It may be difficult to shoot for both, but perhaps you could work on multiple movement speeds as options. The space key is not nearly enough of a difference - and if possible try to make it a toggle speed thing so I don't have to hold the key down all the way. But as I said before, the game is visually quite nice, and the gameplay is simple and straightforward, it doesn't do more than it needs. I am very curious about the MC growth differences I've read about on here... I look forward to playing more
