Welcome, investigators. It’s a calm night, and the voices in the dark seem to be quiet today. Let us tell you a story – we have, for once, time ahead before we resume our fight against the cosmic horrors.
Since the very day that Lovecraft’s Untold Stories was released, there is one thing you keep asking for: Mouse controls. We started working on it at once as soon as we saw how important it was for many of you. But it wasn’t an easy task: there were a lot of technical complications – there always are with new features, especially when they affect something as core to the gameplay experience as controls are.
We wanted it to be as versatile and comfortable as gamepad. To give you the possibility to shoot in 360º, and also to interact smoothly with the UI... And it seems that are going to make it!
For the next update we will add mouse controls to the game. You can see in the gifs that go with the text, that they will work as if they were thought out from the very beginning. And as a positive side effect, we were able to implement something else that you have been asking for since the beginning: better control over explosives, allowing you to throw them to wherever you want.
We want to thank you for all the feedback we are receiving. That is exactly why we released the game on Early Access: your opinions are making the game grow and achieve its true potential. We ask you to keep sending us your suggestions; as you can see, we take them very seriously. Actually, next week’s update will have much more than mouse controls… Stay tuned, we’ll tell you more soon!
