honestly I believe player retention is linked massively with the current tutorials in the game and one big step in improving how long people stick around is getting some more advanced tutorials implimented into the game. The current tutorials are fine for the absolute novice to learn how to do the very basics but beyond that there isn't really any decent in-game tutorials that show the player how to actually use those controls in an effective way and they are sort of just thrown in the deep end, and that means that if they don't manage to find their way to the forums or the discord it's going to be incredibly challenging to play the game especially when a lot of the recurring players are much better at the game.

If we can get the community to become inspired to create tutorials then it would really help the new players that are coming in to get more of a feel for what they are capable of achieving within the game and keep them interested for longer
