Thanks!

Yeah, even though most of the game takes place on your phone, I (ironically) couldn't think of great ways to port some of the mechanics to mobile in a satisfying way.

The microphone thing is just a small interaction when you try to talk to the intercom. It doesn't affect the game whether you accept or deny the permission

In any case, it sounds like you already know the ending, but I think it's worth sticking it out. Paying the ISP seems like it's the hardest/most frustrating part for a lot of people. Besides, some of my favorite parts are around the middle-end.
