Agree on this. Also a bug report - I was getting bored of a story level and tried to find a shortcut to skip it or speed it up or something. Pressed a key (not sure which - was thinking about Esc/Tab/Enter type navigation at the time) and apparently copied a Reddit command, ending up stuck in the state shown in this screenshot. Can't get out to continue the level, the [X] button doesn't seem to do anything. I deleted the modal from the DOM and could not press either button on the dialog below.

I was actually thinking through accessibility considerations while playing as I want to recommend to a friend who would be using alternate input methods. Not being able to skip / speed up cut scenes is a pain. Even just being able to click through the dialog (without the slow travel in between) would be an improvement.

[edit: typo]



It happened to me too, because it's just natural to attempt to ESC to the next level. Eventually I uBlocked the Reddit dialog, then discovered that scrolling up brings back to the game.


Sorry about that!! Can't believe we didn't catch this in testing. I think some changes relatively close to publishing must have enabled this bug
