Thank you so much! I'm pleased you enjoyed the demo, and that's some really useful feedback!
You've made me realise that in the current version of the game, moving between the kitchen and the sitting room is the ONLY time in the whole game you ever have to make the character walk on a specific spot like that to move to a new area.
Every other time you navigate by using doors or clicking on the edge of a screen. I've just done it so many times while testing that I hadn't realised it!
