It’s very disorientating that I can’t center my view when playing Planetary Piano and I have to physically look to the right half of my monitor, while keeping my view straight, or moving my view relative to the center of the machine’s screen, which instead makes me have to look at the left half of my monitor (I’m using 90 FOV (the default) and a 1920x1200 monitor).
Straight:
Relative to the machine’s center of screen:
The way that the game is currently presented in 4-key modes is that it expects the other side of the screen to be used for something, when it isn’t, so the perspective of the notes looks off, leading me to misjudge where upcoming notes would land due to the way it slants and widens at the bottom.
This is much more obvious on the left side of the note field than it is on the right. It just looks off.
I feel like an option to center the player’s view and/or the note field would make it more accessible.
This option would be client-side, so spectators would not see anything different.
This is mostly with Singleplayer modes in mind. I’m not sure how Multiplayer would account for this.
Though, one idea that I have is to make the opponent’s note field smaller and to the left or right of the player’s screen.
