Are you moving the mouse as well? The only thing I can imagine is if the flame is in a static position.
Those trees are actually blocks of ice, you need to melt them accordingly by hovering your mouse on it.
What am I doing wrong here? https://gfycat.com/EverlastingIllegalBighornedsheep
[EDIT: I mean the character sometimes glitches forward if I swing the torch but not always… Is this framerate dependent? What’s going on? I never even got that far but as soon as I recorded the screen the behavior changed]
Oh man, I'm not sure why that is happening. The player speed is far too low for you. What is your screen resolution?
That is obviously a fault on our side with how we coded player movement, so I apologise. But thank you for taking the time to try our game, and especially the amount of time in trying to help solve the issue.
