Brilliant game - way more to it than you first think, love the mechanics later on in the game.
ReplyDeletedon't give up, and follow the clues carefully!
DeleteI am stuck on the symbols door...all circuits are established and I have 2 of the code numbers but cannot figure out how to change the and lock the symbols to make them correct the way the one hint in the game shows. Would love to finish but all I am doing now is running around. Love the concept!!! Any help would be appreciated.
ReplyDeleteAfter Finding 3 digits of the code, I couldn't resist brute force the last digit.
ReplyDeleteNow I've to go back to solve it a proper way.
Few hints.
1: Secret areas have Yellow/Black striping on the backside, to hide them from view when using the overview button.
2: Try to die to get to new places.
The symbol Door is not that hard if you find the trick
DeleteNo it isn't that hard.
DeleteMeanwhile the run with knowing all the secrets, and solving the door riddle, took longer than the first run without using the symbol door.
Wow amazing game! Fez vibes!
ReplyDeleteAfter looking at the convex map too much, my flat monitor looks curved and curved monitor looks flat haha.
ReplyDeletebrilliant game - just the right amount of challenge. the side scrolling/parallax-type effect gave me a bit of motion sickness
ReplyDeletei've got the 4 digits for the exit, but it does'nt work
ReplyDeleteIf the digits are 4734 then you have the Wrong digits. 734 is used somewhere else
DeleteThis was a spectacular puzzle platformer!
ReplyDeletei really dont get the symbol Door and just keep runing around. can annyone give a hint?
ReplyDeleteStart Running round and round and round
DeleteIf you're stuck where I got stuck you'll need to figure out the movement pad that doesn't seem to do anything - you might need to change your view and then align something
DeleteHank's Magic Hat is another great game of the same developer:

Even though it didn't save progress, or even reset levels properly, it was a good game.
DeleteMade me instantly feel motion sick : /
ReplyDeleteI couldn't get very far. The moving platforms were too confusing.
ReplyDelete42'42'' :-)
ReplyDeleteHad to brute force the fourth digit - is that the way it works or is that digit findable? Awesome game - I'm expecting to see it on Bart's top ten list for this year.
ReplyDelete4th digit is behind the door with 4 Signs
DeleteIf I remember correctly
