Thanks for playing and sorry you had some trouble with the camera! The camera is supposed to freely rotate and move up and down so you can see more in front of you. It must have been really frustrating to play with it stuck in the highest position. We've rolled out more improvements to the camera in later versions.
It definitely was annoying, but there are definitely worse bug/issues a game can have! I play a lot of itchio games, so it's honestly the least of my concern. Glad to hear it's fixed though :) really only the reason it was a "problem" for me was because it was a little easy to get lost when stripping myself of the ability to see my surroundings haha
