Hi! Thanks for the quick reply. I'm playing on Windows (installed the game via the itch desktop app, if that's relevant). I was scrolling using the mouse. 

Just gave it a try with the arrow keys, and it then did proceed with the tutorial, showing the worker tokens and unpausing the game. On a second try, it now also works with the mouse. I also figured out why it wasn't working for me the first time: If I'm already at the top of the screen by the time the second tutorial box (the "Scroll up to the node" one) pops up, then it doesn't proceed unless I move the screen again. Sometimes it doesn't proceed at all.

Generally the game doesn't seem to handle early inputs well. If I manage to scroll to the top of the screen before the first tutorial box ("Pan with the mouse or arrow keys") finishes fading in, it doesn't proceed to the second box either until I move again. At some point I managed to pan before the "Level 2" pop up appears, causing none of the game UI to appear at all.

Level 3 is still not ticking - maybe I need to complete Level 2 first?

During my testing of Level 2 I found another bug: During the first loop, the clock didn't show up (the game did tick though), and after I failed to complete the task in time I got this screen:

where I cannot place a token in any node now and the game is not ticking again. I tried hovering and unhovering the hint texts, but that didn't unfreeze the game. Sadly I am now always stuck on the "tutorial not proceeding" bug so I can't test this bug any further.

Ok great - yeah I wrote the tutorial to be pretty slow-paced, I didn't think of people managing to pan during the "Level XX" title. I'll look into it now & attempt to patch it.

For your screenshot, I vaguely remember that bug, but can't remember how it triggers. Can you navigate to <username>\AppData\LocalLow\BigHandInSky\ForgetfulLoop\...

And send the Player.log & Player-prev.log to bighandinsky@gmail.com please?
