Awesome feedback Wan, I appreciate the detailed post! I like the idea of your tutorial room, I was thinking the same and also provide the option to skip it.
I'll definitely look into the death screen as well. Thank you again for the input!
Edit: I just shortened the death time in two ways. I shortened the actual sequence By a second and a half, but also removed the beginning level text after the first time. Overall should make the wait time much faster. That change is included in the current download version :)
