    Hello,

    It's true the game is designed to be played with a pad first. Then we have to adapt for keyboard/mouse for PC players.

    We haven't checked this issue yet and I am not totally sure how we could fix it.

    I'll discuss with the dev team and be sure we add it to the list but I think it will be a really low priority compared to all the fixes/improvements we can bring to the game and that a lot more people will enjoy. It will mainly depend on which new issues appear and how hard/easy this keyboard issue is to fix.

    Cheers,

    Hello IBlubbil,

    So I discussed with different people about this. There is nothing "definitely wrong/easy to fix" in the keyboard controls.
    Though, it's clear that this skill game is much harder with keyboard controls and it's due to the nature of the controller (keyboards are not analog).
    We could work on it, prototype some solution for some alternative controls for keyboard to make it "doable", but that would require some fair amount of time.
    We could reduce the distance of the platinum medal, but we would have to do it cross platform to keep challenge consistency accross all the community and the current value is actually quite good when we play with a pad. So we won't go down this road.

    Also, we don't have unlimited time and people to work on the game. So we need to have priorities. I think it's better to use this time to improve things that are impacting more people rather than something that is bothering a few players who are statistically "special" cases.

    So the conclusion is we make the decision to not change that even if we agree with your feedback. I think you'll understand the decision.

    On a personal level, I watch regularly you replays and keep saying to myself: how does he do that with the keyboard? :-) That's particularly awesome and that would already be awesome with a pad.

    Thank you for your feedback, please keep giving feedback, it's really useful for us.

    Thx for the Statement.

    I agree with you, you should work on the major problems first before going to work on problems like this, which are not effecting that many people.
