The versions I have played are v0.3.1 for Android and v0.3.2 pre1 for Android. I came across this problem in both versions.
Thank you for all your help so far. Unfortunately, it hasn't worked.
I uninstalled and then deleted the game before downloading and installing it again. I also used the game settings to lower resolution and frame rate to see if that would do anything. Unfortunately, nothing worked and the movement control freezing problem persists for me. I genuinely don't have a clue what's causing it.
