There is currently a bug where if you talk to someone, you are then not allowed to move... My apologies. I didn't get to fully test before submitting.
EDIT: I found the bug. I added a feature where once you talk to a character or during any other scenario where boxes pop up on the screen, movement is disabled to prevent breaking the conversation. This was a last minute change, and I forgot to re-enable movement for the case of a conversation. Once voting is done, I will push an update to itch.io
