have to make hard decisions like keeping with the old fenoxo button format where you have nested menus but its all keyboard driven or the newer formats where there is shit you have to click on.

the second has the slight advantage that you don’t get buried in menus.

@icedquinn Menus are great for beginners because you can explore and see everything. Menus+keyboard means you have a nice learning curve going from beginner to pro that wants ergonomics.

@swiley the old fenoxo model has most of the game controlled by a little 3x5 grid at the bottom of the screen, with a text plane above that. i think it was done this way because it was easy and it was a mid-life flash game.

but that model has stuck for a couple other games. which added the ability to type a keyboard key to push those buttons.

but the original fenoxo game.. yeah, that menu was all they had so there is some menu diving.
