I was also annoyed by this entry. The developer said that the Rift is built this way, because it is meant as a hub area later in the game. In that case it would make more sense to "skip" it as an intro and introduce it later in the game. You could spawn in the Rift and directly start the story cutsceen dialog which warps you to the actual game scene. Without any movement in the Rift at all. Just treat it like a intro cutsceen how it is done in many other games. Then you would show the story and not "annoy" the player with the area and later in the game you could slowly introduce the whole Rift concept again, because the art and idea of the Rift is actually nice, it's just not a good entry in my opinion.

Hi @Moimee I've made a lot of updates to the readability of the Rift over time and it seems to work quite fine now, so I'd like to know what issues you're experiencing, maybe I can still add some improvements. :)

This is the very first level yet very annoying and I may delete the game

Thank you for this. I played the demo before this was added, and was looking forward to playing again and seeing the new features, but this Rift maze thingee here just frustrated me to the point where I was ready to quit. A little bit of guidance in this level -- it being the introduction to the game -- might be helpful.
