Hopefully just a minor bug, but items lying on the floor are pushed into the walls when I walk onto the square they are ocupying. When they get pushed into the wall, they are inaccessible. It only happend to rocks and a knive for now, but I hope it is fixed, before some precious keys are being pushed into the void :-)

And thanks folks! Until now the game delivers the good 'ol Dungeon Master experiance perfectly!! :D

Knives are picked up if you push them into a wall. Probably the same for other items as well.

Not pushed on the wall, but auto pickup on the working.

Can you confirm that this is actually the auto pickup? Otherwise this sounds like a very strange bug that we should have caught in testing....

I can confirm, happens only rocks and knives so far.
So, works as should be, i think.

I noticed this same thing with for example the shield/spears that skeletons drop in early trap room where pressure plate opens 3 doors with each has skeleton behind. After kills the loot can be pushed to edge of tiles.

This happens with all items. It's holdover from the old 2d games like DM and EoB, where you couldn't look at the ground. That way, if you were standing on a tile with an item on it, you could still pick it up. I thought that was a nice touch in Grimrock. Good job :)

Confirm. Items auto-pickup of items such as stones, throwing knives, etc.
I didn't think about such an option, so I was just confused, when the items vanished :-)

You didn't notice that your characters ammo suddenly replenished? ;)
