Summary0010057: No indication how to make it past the first conversation
DescriptionI consider this a pretty major issue for new players. Especially before beta opens when many new players will get their hands on the game.

The controls draw in the initial room you start the game in, but only after the conversation with Demonica ends.

There's nothing showing you how to advance the conversation with Demonica. Especially since only the action button will advance the conversation, it's unlikely they will hit the right thing unless they start mashing the keyboard.

Just add in parenthesis to hit the action button (whatever it's currently set as) to continue. Or have the controls draw in during the conversation, as opposed to showing up after.

Well, the enter key also works by default, so if people don't think to press enter...

If controls similar to the menu recommendations are added, the "cancel" button could be used to skip the dialog entirely. (Perhaps tap once to bring up a "skip" dialog, then "accept" to skip).

Thanks!

* In the first room with Demonaica at the start of the game, the game controls now show up even during the conversation you are having with him, rather than waiting until after that conversation is done.
