I added some simple click handling to the world map to hopefully enable continued play on mobile devices. Pull request here[0].

By clicking on the north of the map you move north etc. Might be improved by making it relative to the player, rather than the centre of the map.

You can play through the game with the changes here[1].

EDIT: It was better measuring the click relative to current location, so I changed that in the PR.

Thanks! Yes this is the most important first fix. Never underestimate the volume of iPad only users. ;)


No worries :)

Would love feedback on the interface if you are able. The interface feels pretty good with mouse, and seems like it would translate well to iPad, but I won't be able to test myself for a few more hours.

I thought about adding separate buttons that could be clicked, but decided that clicking on the map was more intuitive and fit with the game better.
