Lathe / pottery doesn't work / broken ...
When I get to the lathe for the first time, the cursor gets teleported to the bottom right of the screen. When trying to move it back up, the cursor is reset back to the bottom right of the screen. In windowed mode, it's a little better but the right hand only goes to the end of the machine on the right.

Any ideas...? It's just a regular mouse

You should clicked repetitive with LMB until your potter's wheel start spinning fast. Only then you can shape bioplastic's form.

Yeah, that isn't it. The mouse cursor is stuck in the bottom right in the letterboxing. I 100% get the bioplastic mechanic. I can't get the arm to move from the far, far bottom right of the screen and the program takes control of my cursor. Can't click in settings, etc.
Do you have any other input devices connected?
Tried windowed mode?

this isn't working for me either. super frustrating.

I fiddled around and found a workaround. For the lathe, switch to windowed. You'll probably want to bump the display resolution down (I went to 1600x900) so you can actually see what you're carving. Once done with that minigame, can change resolution back to normal & make fullscreen.

Making drinks works fine.

Indie game!
It's one day since release, surely fixes are coming :) You can wait for them if you want.

I'm having the same issue with the cursor being clamped to the bottom of the screen, so I can't sculpt the object on the pottery lathe. Playing on a Mac.

Same issue, also Mac. Maybe OS-specific?

Same on mac. Tried with a mouse and controller, same problem.

Also Mac, but windowed mode worded. Same issue with fullscreen.

That was happening to me too! Makes it really difficult to do anything

It took me so f*ing long to get the pottery/sculpting correct. I had to walk away from my laptop, it reminds of when you "missed" something or unknowingly "jumped ahead" in the Sierra games and were basically SOL.
