#43Looks great! it's nice that you can immediately try it out
Totally agree!! It's great to be able to get engaged in the game instantly and not have to sign up right away.

#44If you put sail adjust ments of the opposite side of the screen from the helm on mobile, its be easier to both at once.

#45Earlier quoted context omitted.

Lmk if space to fire and shift for map makes more sense I wanted it to feel natural for qwerty and arrow key controls, the space felt a little clunky with arrow keys.
Space for fire, I kept hitting it reflexively.

#46Should there be sound? I think sounds would be essential for this.

Space was definitely what I pressed first to fire. Then enter. Then shift. Later I realized the menu has the key bindings in it.

#48The boat seems to go faster with the sails on the wrong side (back winded), that doesn't make a ton of physical sense to me
I interpreted this as a visual bug with the sprites.
As a sailor, I love seeing ads or other random imagery of sailboats that's clearly photoshopped, with sails in nonsensical orientations or completely backwards with things like flags or hair blowing in the wind.

#49I used Hyperia (my terminal project) to let Antigravity take control. I think it's cheating now because it has infinite ammo.
Oh my, it wired up its own autopilot and is wrecking havoc now.

#50the control layout is a bit awkward on mobile. i find myself wanting to adjust both heading and trim continuously, but both controls are on the right so i cant use both thumbs. then the buttons to fire/ board are fiddly. tbh almost gave up then tried with keyboard and saw how it was supposed to go.
In the settings menu you can move the rudder wheel to the left. I don't know why that's not the default.
