The UI design might need some work.
It starts with no controls, just a picture. I hit esc. Things start moving. It keeps moving, I keep hitting esc, it doesn't stop. I try ctrl-c , no dice. I look around the frame for buttons. I try one of the buttons, it moves faster. I hold down esc. It doesn't respond to holding down esc either . I see no way to gain control. At no point do I gain control.
Ultimately it stops. Fine. Ok, no response to WASD. No response to drag motion. I click "Instruments" , I get a side-bar "instruments of the museum" with no contents. I click in the side bar. Now I can't close it, and other controls are gone. I try hitting esc. Multiple random clicks later i'm back where I started.
I try the "more" button", I am now looking at a painting sideways, and an anodyne text which explains very little. I click on a painting. Things start moving. I hit Esc. Suddenly the painting is full screen. GREAT. Ok, and now how do I get out? Esc? Oh esc. Ok NOW ESC... oh no, things are moving again. I didn't mean for things to move. Esc shouldn't cause things to START moving. hit esc again. The esc is ignored.
I end up at another painting. I try some buttons. Most don't work. I hit esc again. Things start moving. I didn't mean to move away from the painting, I just had it in front of me!
I am very confused.
I'm not in control here.
