Button requests: back, skip

Postby rmcrackan » Fri Feb 15, 2008 10:53 am

After our 1st time playing, I have 2 requests for buttons during play:

1) back button. We put Bliss on our laptop so we could bring it easily into any room (especially into the bedroom which is otherwise a no-computer zone). Like many laptops, with our laptop it is all too easy to click 2x when you only meant to click once. Consequently there are screen of directions we missed and couldn't go back to so we just had to skip that turn. A back button would have been useful on some screens to be able to avoid this.

2) skip button. There are different times when it'd be nice to have a 'skip' button or perhaps a button to be given a different action instead. You can of course just click through the action without doing it but it's easy to feel self-conscious doing that. 2 reasons that came up with us for wanting such an option: [1] didn't feel comfortable doing the action [2] circumstances had changed since the beginning of the game. While everything is heating up you don't feel like stopping to re-customize. For instance, we started playing with the computer on the kitchen table and later, mid-game, moving upstairs to the bedroom. This put significant distance between us and some of the items we originally said were available (ice, drinks) and we were hardly of a mind to stop what we were doing to fidget with little checkboxes.

All this said, we have enjoyed the game immensely and look forward to using it a lot in the future. Hopefully, this weekend.
