Hi,

My game works fine here on the Pico 8 BBS (on desktop and mobile) but…

I recently uploaded it to itch.io, making sure to follow the instructions in the Pico 8 manual (https://www.lexaloffle.com/pico8_manual.txt):

If you would like to upload your exported cartridge to itch.io as playable html:

			1. From inside PICO-8: EXPORT -F FOO.HTML
			2. Create a new project from your itch dashboard.
			3. Zip up the folder and upload it (set "This file will be played in the browser")
			4. Embed in page, with a size of 750px x 640px.
			5. Set "Mobile Friendly" on (default orientation) and "Automatically start on page load" on.
				// no need for the fullscreen button as the default PICO-8 template has its own.
			6. Set the background (BG2) to something dark (e.g. #232323) and the text to something light.

But for some reason, on the itch.io mobile version, the controls 1) take a long 5 seconds or so to appear atop the game and 2) don't work.

Here's the working version on lexaloffle: https://www.lexaloffle.com/bbs/?tid=35622
And here's the one not working on mobile on itch.io: https://tailpipe.itch.io/tailpipe

Note: I'm using Safari for iOS.

Thanks in advance for any ideas of what I might be doing wrong.

Can confirm it's not working in 2.0.2i either.

This has sadly been an issue with iOS/Safari and itch for a long time.
