    Hello all,

    Can there be some way to skip the cutscenes in the campaigns? Right now, the only way I've found to skip them is to spam-smash the Escape key while spam-clicking where the button appears. By doing this I'm able to make the Start button appear for a split second, and usually I can hit it. Otherwise, you have to watch the cutscenes over and over again. This is especially time-consuming since there is no way to save your progress in the campaigns yet.

    Thanks!

    You can already do that. Although its an option in the menu. I do agree about the need for a skip cutscene/explanation video tho.

    I remember reading about that and somehow I remember changing that setting to allow skips, but after going through all the options twice I can't find it again! Where is that setting?

    There is a button for that.
    Try pressing 9 (Numpad)
    Under the controls menu (showing advanced bindings) there is a binding called "Confirm / Activate selected item" it allows you to skip the scenes. :) I didn't know that until the rocky road campaign, they mention it in there. But you can still use it in the other campaigns.

    I just updated my post, it's much easier to understand.

    I hadn't done the Rocky Start campaign yet. Boy no wonder I couldn't find that. Thanks man!!

    Perhaps a future improvement could be making the Start button appear by pressing the main button (aka mouse click or A button), as that'd be more consistent with other games with cutscenes, plus no explanation needed to figure out :)

    Hey :)

    just wondering, how the cutscene screens look for you?
    Here i have a skip button + key indication in the lower right corner. so you can skip by clicking that or pressing the indicated binding.

    Looks nice.

    Any plan for voice acting?

    It looks very good! A bit of feedback: you might want to change the outline of the nail of the left 'guy' since it is a bit too dark imo, and the collar of the person on the left looks a bit short(like it stops underneath your ears)

    Kinda getting of topic here.
    I was just trying to figure out if there is a problem with the skip button, that already should be in the game right now. Since it doesn't seem to be shown, or beeing overlooked.
