Accessibility at launch
Steam lists these features for 4078110 on launch day:
- Camera Comfort
- Color Alternatives
- Custom Volume Controls
- Mouse Only Option
- Playable without Timed Input
- Save Anytime
- Stereo Sound
- Subtitle Options
- Steam Cloud
- Family Sharing
These pair with cozy pacing — no fail-state combat timers — but manual gathering still rewards sustained clicking until automation unlocks. Controller support does not remove mouse-centric node interactions entirely; see Controls.
