While I would have loved to expand the world interactions to flesh out more of the story, that would have required more work than I was honestly prepared to put into this small project.\n\n![4755e.gif](\/\/\/raw\/319\/53\/z\/48628.gif)\n\nThat said, here are the updates that I did put in. I feel like the end result is overall more polished and pleasant, with a new controller and interaction indication.
