Never noticed there's no pause functionality. I wonder if they thought it would be too easy, as being able to pause mid-fight might take away from the frantic action and give you a chance to plan your next move.

Hmmm, you pose an interesting hypothesis 🧐. I wasn’t able to find a developer interview for the game at the time of writing, but I’m really curious to know if the lack of pause function and the reason behind it was ever directly addressed by someone who worked on the game at the time.
