I see! Is it the knocking the flashlight mechanic that I missed? That's the only thing I see that's different at least. I tried again with that in mind but I don't really know what it's doing. Maybe keeping the flashlight from dying? It never died on me so probably lol.
Yeah a lot of people ignore controls screens, I'm a prime example lol, so if there's a mechanic that's not "the usual" then putting it where the player has to see it is a great idea!
