Reminds me of another of his games, "Shackle"
Nice game, but I don't get how the levels in the Snow area from Glimpse and in the Catching area from Stay and Crossing work. Any help would be great :).
Apparently there is a mechanic to turn the light off and to "ride the box" but I can't figure it out. At a dead end.
How does this work? I get to "Introduction," but then it just does dead. All I can do is press Escape.
For "Glimpse" you need to get the snowball on the button, then melt the snowball while lining the lightbulb up with the moth at the same time.
If you have any advice for "Sort" and "The Wall" from snow that'd be appreciated, stuck on those and a bunch from the Catching area
Hint for "The Wall": you have to keep 1 snowball in every row. Some of them need to be pushed to the left to make room.
More hint: you need to keep the last one in row 1,2 and 4, and the first one in row 3.
Detailed walkthrough (rot13): Fgneg jvgu gur svefg ebj (5 onyyf), chfu vg evtug, gvyy lbh unir bayl bar onyy va frpbaq ebj. Chfu gung onyy gb gur evtug bar fgrc. Chfg gur yrsgbire bar onyy va gur guveq ebj yrsg, bar fgrc. Gurer vf bar onyy va gur sbhegu ebj, chfg vg evtug nyy gur jnl ba gur ohggba. Tb onpx gb gur frpbaq ebj, chfu gur onyy yrsg, juvyr zryg 3 bs 4 va gur svefg ebj. Lbh pna qb gur erfg.
Hint for sort: you definitely need the stone on the right switch, so you need to put the snowball on the left switch. Keep in mind that your lamp moves in a different way around obsticles.
Here's a hint for stay: Your first goal should be turning the light off. Everything else comes after
For crossing, there's a way to push the moth up after you return to below
Any hints for row?
i also was confused at first. you need to hit the right arrow to go to the first world
wait, that's wrong. hit spacebar on 'introduction' and then you'll see 4 connected icons. if you hit spacebar on "area select" you get transported back to 'introduction.' so you have to move right to 'beginning' and they you can hit spacebar, and start playing.
this was very confusing and i ended up trying a different browser because i thought the game was broken. i'm glad i wasn't the only one who was confused
For Row, the lightbulb should never be adjusted vertically
I'm clearly missing something for Offset. I have no idea what mechanism I need to employ to do it right
Nevermind got it, figured out the issue with offset
I've made it to the "Bloom" world now
Care to share as I have no idea
I still don't get : Thread, Glimpse, sort, stay, offset, setup, gap - any more hints?
For sort, if the lamp is on top of the block and you are to the left, when you move left the lamp stays diagonally to the right of you.
Any more hints for stay, offset, setup, gap?
A walkthrough would be so nice!
Stuck in the "Ceiling" Area now
Offset is a lot like the "Glimpse" level in the snow area. You just need to set it up right and make a move. The buttons can be pressed only once, they cannot be held down.
I can time it so the buttons get presses at the same time but Cannot do anything with the door to get it to stay open or get the moth at the bottom to move
The bottom moth on "Offset" needs some setup as well
On the "Advanced" Area now. Dunno if I can get past it, stuff looks complicated to say the least
I still can't beat "The wall" level
anybody figure out Slot?
hint for slot (rot13): lbh pna chfu gur sylvat zbgu jvgu n qbhoyr oybpx
solution for slot (rot13): chg gur zbinoyr oybpx ba gbc bs gur bgure, chfu gur zbgu gbjneqf gur ohggba jvgu gur ynzc, naq tb gura chfu gur qbhoyr oybpx qbja naq evtug, nebhaq gur bar-vgrz jnyy
Amazing, thank you
Can anyone help me with the transfer level?
Any hints for confined?
How do you move the moth back up in crossing?
Confined: I assume you have managed to put the stone on the button. Do that, but push the stone one step further (under the lift); you will push it back on the button on your way down to the target.
Hint: Don't forget that you can swich off your lamp.
Solution for transfer (rot13): nggenpg gur zbgu gb lbhe vfynaq, naq zbir vg bire gur rqtr nobir gur ynfg, ybatre pbyhza (va sylvat cbfvgvba). Fjvgu bss lbhe ynzc, naq cbfvgvba lbhefrys ba gur pbeare, jvgu gur ynzc va gur fnzr ebj nf gur fjvgpu. Fjvgpu ba lbhe ynzc, gung jvyy nggenpg gur zbgu.
Chfu gur zbgu evtug, naq zbir lbhe ynzc haqre gur zbgu (ol chyyvat vg haqre gur zbgu).
Still haven't managed to clear any of the levels in the "Advanced" area as of yet. Been able to go back and clear a few of the prior levels I was having trouble with though.
Awsome, thank you
Thanks
Can someone help me with catching?
Any tips for no entry?
For no entry:
Gur ceboyrz vf lbh gevttre gur tngr ba lbhe jnl gb gur rkvg. Vf gurer n jnl gung lbh pna fgrc ba gur tngr naq fgvyy or noyr gb zbir sbejneq?
Spoiler:
Lbh arrq gb or urnil
I can't get Canyon for some reason
Which level in catching?
Oh, that level drove me nuts as well, I couldn't solve it for days. Yet very simple...
Hint: Znxr n oevqtr gb gur bgure vfynaq.
Solution: Qb vg va gur frpbaq ebj sebz gur obggbz.
I could do with help with Crossing in this area
Hint: You have to keep the left moth in place. To do this, you either need to switch off your lamp or cover the way of your light with the other moth.
Solution: Nsgre gur fgbar vf va cynpr, lbh pna fjvgpu ba lbhe yvtug naq nggenpg gur zbgu, gura fjvgpu bss gur yvtug ntnva, naq chfu gur zbgu gb gur evtug fvqr. Guvf jnl lbh pna nggenpg gur zbgu bire gur tnc.
I can't get any of the advanced ones: any help for gate or over?
Still stuck on the Advanced area as well. If anyone wants help getting there ask about levels, the more minds working on Advanced the better.
@eszterencs I have been able to do this but cannot find any way to swich the light on to attract the moth to the top without the other moth moving
I have 8 levels until I can give my full attention to the Advanced area:
[Variety]: Idea, Path, Trigger, Snow Rotation, Tunnel, and Islands
[Ceiling]: Distance and Signal.
Any/all hints most welcome
I beat Tunnel at some point, but I can't remember the solution for the life of me. As for the rest, stuck on those too and then some.
-Okay, managed to remember what I did for Tunnel. Here's the starting set-up and goal in rot13:
Bar Zbgu ba gur ohggba sbe gur oyhr cyngsbez. Frpbaq zbgu ba gur oyhr cyngsbez (ybjrerq, abg sylvat). Yvtugohyo ba gbc bs gur frpbaq zbgu.
Ovttre cvpgher: Lbh arrq gb trg n zbgu gb gur irel evtug ba gur ohggba, gura chfu gur obk ba gbc bs vg. Sebz gurer vg'f whfg n znggre bs trggvat gur obk zbirq gb gur sne yrsg fb lbh pna chg vg ba gur yrsgzbfg ohggba gb gevttre gur svefg erq tngr.
Got it, thank you! Happy to exchange help on any of the pre-Advanced levels I've solved :)
Presently the ones I'm stuck on outside of your own list are:

@Meblin you don't need to attract it, you can push it. I am not sure if I understand well the problem, but when the moth is on the right side in the bottom line, you can attract it _over_ the gap while your head is _in_ the gap. This way you can push it upwards.
