Very very nice game! the style is very charming.

But just like everyone else holy hell the escape mechanics are so bad right now. You lose progress way too quickly! Mashing out of binds is pretty much impossible ESPECIALLY with how slowly your stamina replenishes, and it feels like escaping from getting captured takes TAS-level perfect inputs to make any amount of progress! The escape system needs a serious rework. I can understand the appeal of wanting to watch a cute girl struggle but having to watch the button prompts like a hawk to make sure I don't lose any progress means I am NOT looking at the cute girl struggling! This is in SERIOUS need of a fix.

I agree completely, it makes the game very punishing and not enjoyable, especially with some of the asshole level enemy placement and limited form of attack making you have to stop to get out of binds way more often then I would like. the entire binding system needs a rework, it makes it difficult to play the game.

The escape mechanic confused me as I thought you have to tap or mash the button similar to Didnapper and Gabrielle's Escape. The game (updated version) does explain you can hold down the button, but I would guess people coming from Didnapper and especially Didnapper 2 may not know this.
