Thank you so much for featuring “OMEGA PHENEX”!
Your support means a lot to our indie team.

While we loved the article, we noticed two small inaccuracies regarding the gameplay mechanics, and we would be incredibly grateful if you could update them to prevent any confusion among the players.

1. Regarding Melee Weapons
The article mentions that there are currently no melee weapons in the game. However, a close-combat “Laser Blade” weapon is actually implemented and available for players to use after finishing all the missions in the Beta.

2. Regarding Recommended Controls
The article states that the developer recommends Mouse & Keyboard controls. We have not officially recommended any specific control scheme. Players are completely free to enjoy the game using their preferred method.
We mainly use a gamepad for development, too.

We understand that with a beta version, specific details can sometimes be tricky to pin down, so we truly appreciate your understanding and assistance in amending these two points.

Thank you again for your fantastic article and your continued support of the indie game community!

Best regards,

Fulcrum
