Unfortunately, the walking speed is fairly slow and there is zero option to change it.

Very occasionally you might encounter a glitch where a note/letter will stay stuck on screen. To get around this, go to the next item that needs picking up and manoeuvre around until you can grab it. This will cause the letter to finally leave the screen. You can also simply quit out and go back in, but you may start from the beginning of the chapter again.

For some strange reason, the Series X version of the game has a lot of screen tearing and textures not loading in correctly.
