I don't get it. I'm immediately caught by the first enemy. Can't hide. Can't break free. Can't do a damn thing. Pressing space does nothing. The game needs to do a better job on instructing the player of WTF to do.

Edit: My bad on skimming past the FAQ. Though if getting past the first enemy is a Frequently Asked Question, there might be room for tweaking some things. My thought is that it's not great to explain various mechanics but then put the player up against a first enemy who is completely resistant to those mechanics. Without changing much, maybe just adding the text "Run!" a moment before that enemy shows up would reinforce the intent there.

Let me help you. If getting caught by her and hiding doesn't work, maybe don't do those things? There is also an FAQ on itch.

I really have no idea why people just not try to run after hiding doesn't work. IMO and I really don't mean to be rude or anything, but I think people who get stuck here are just not even trying to get through. I think they just try the same thing over and over again and then just give up because that obviously doesn't work. And by your reasoning, there are much more people who get through this part than those, who do not. I understand what you are saying, but this part is there to show the player that they are just prey and they should always try to run if they can. And no, I don't agree that if something is frequently asked then it must be changed.
