Accessibility and Settings

• Reading speed setting: How long the dialogue gives you before it animates out again.
  
• Allow mild profanity: On by default.
  
• Unfortunately we don't currently have any font or text size settings, although it is planned for a future update. Our text size is however relatively generous - we we suggest you look at screenshots full screen where you intend to play to get a sense of how readable it is for you.

• Alternative gamepad controls: By default choices and interaction is on the A button, and jump is on the Y button. But for those that find it more natural for jump to be on the A button there is an alternative control scheme.
  
• Remap keyboard controls: Full remapping of all controls in game is possible. Mouse buttons are assignable although general mouse movement control isn't supported.

• Trip less when running to music: Normally during the rhythm running mechanic 3 stumbles will cause the music and momentum to stop. With this setting on you are allowed infinite stumbles. (However some types of platforming mistakes may still cause failure.)
  
• Never flail while climbing: Occasionally a quick time event may occur during climbing that requires you to quickly press a button to re-attach to the wall. This option disables the mechanic completely.
  
• Easier music rhythms: During the rhythm run mechanic, use less complicated rhythms to make the game easier.
  
• Single jump button only: After the first few rhythm runs the game will introduce a second jump button to introduce difficulty and complexity. This option will mean you only ever require a single jump button during the rhythm mechanic.
  
• Weather and Environment: How strongly poor weather will affect your health and recovery.
  
• Lightning: By default switched on, this is a strobe effect during thunderstorms that can be disabled.
  
• Highlight routes when looking further: By default switched on, when using the "Look Further" mechanic (zooming out), this will highlight the available surface that can be walked and climbed on for easier navigation. For players that prefer more of a challenge and to look at the raw art only, this can be disabled.

• The following volumes can be independently controlled: master volume, ambient music volume, rhythm music volume, speech volume.
  
• Gamepad vibration can be disabled.
