Completely agree about the camera positioning, it was meant to be like you are carrying it in front of you but it just came out confusing.
I plan on doing an update soon which will fix a few usability issues like that, I also think the camera range is too short among other things.
Next update will have some kind of reticle to show you where you should be aiming the viewport, pitty it didn't make it in for the jam submission.
Thanks for the feedback!
