Obie flute challenge.
In the bar with the demons a demon with a flute offers a minigame. After a certain point the demon plays notes that sound higher pitched than what you can play but there are only four buttons to play notes with. Is this challenge impossible or am I missing something?

One hint: you could still solve this with the sound turned off.

This is driving me bats. I figured out the trick, and am up to nine notes (writing down the notes b/c I'm old and my short-term memory is shot), but then something changes up and the flute demon starts repeating the same three notes over and over, until eventually he tells me I'm wrong and we have to start all over again.

What am I missing?

And I can't leave and come back, and I don't want to abandon this puzzle, so now I'm just stuck with a buch of pieces of paper that say RUR ULU DUR on them.

I couldn't figure this out in about twenty minutes of trying. I'm starting to think the joke is that he's trapping Obie (and by extension, me) in self-inflicted suffering on purpose with no actual possibility of success. Because Hell, I guess.

For the record I can also get to the point where Danny is playing notes at a shifted pitch but I have absolutely no idea how to follow it at that point; pressing the direction the notes fly no longer works. Holding "diagonals" with the arrow keys does nothing, no key on my keyboard is any apparent pitch shift key, and I don't want to leave because the game is telling me I won't have another chance, but hnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnghhhhhhhhhh

Hmm. This is not working as intended. Will look into it today.

Appreciate it! If it makes a difference, I'm running iOS

I know one of the patches says the issue with mapping buttons was fixed, but is this quest fixed in general? These are the worst kinds of puzzles for me so I may just suck but it seems like I'm getting the same issue as everyone here.

The input issue was fixed, but it is going on beyond where it should be stopping. I believe I've fixed it for the next patch?
