Hey thanks for the feedback.
The bug you mention we noticed as well and have stopped disabling the players movement whilst events are on screen (except during combat which is being overhauled) and it should address that issue. The helm has a few options at the start but I don't like that you HAVE to continue to the next event and can't go look around or skip things which you have already done. This will all be addressed in a post-jam update and i'd love it if you were to check it out after after the rating period is over and we've updated/polished the game.
