level 1 is actually frustrating, even once you know what to do so many things can go wrong and then you have to do the awkward cocktail mixing and the computer codes again, hoping the game doesn't fling important objects across the room where you can't get to them.

You probably already solved it by now but a few tips for others maybe it helps. Once you know the recipes you don't have to do all the codes again, just skip right to the one with the external drive after the debug mode. If you can remember the code sequence for that you don't even have to mix the invisible drink.

for the antidote, I have no idea why but sometimes it just doesn't work. I had good success emptying the shaker completely, putting it under the dispenser and then doing 1 volatile vodka first, then 2 tonics. No need for the jigger, just press the buttons. Also make sure not to accidentally push multiple buttons at once. Gently shake until it steams and immediately drink it. If it doesn't steam empty out and try again.

For the robot "fight" I believe you don't have to mix vodka and tonic, one part vodka should be enough, shake it and then just place it somewhere near the robot while he is glowing, don't keep holding it.

I had to shake it until it steams then stop, then shake it again until it turns RED then drink,

oh so the robot is invincible except for the 3 second window where it's red before you die, very cool and fun design, UX GOTY

e: nvm it also doesn't work if he's red, guess it's a pixel hunt
e2: oh wait did you mean it doesn't work if you have the telekenesis still on it? this is beyond the pale

Yeah level 1 was pretty hard compared to the following. ^^

Float the books in front of you to block the laser and fill the explosive cocktail ahead of time.

You use any object to block the laser. Then you use telekinesis to shake the the vodka in something (maybe the whole bottle works, I haven't tried that yet) in front of the robot when it's glowing red. Zero pixel hunt needed.

The drinking is bugged its the stupid game. If you pour the drink too high or low it wont register as being drunk. Its stupid and annoying to figure out that thats the problem.

This has been my experience as well. I never had any trouble with this part. I just put the vodka in the shaker, shake it until it turns red, the push it out to the robot and drop it at its feet. Maybe those who have had issues, they can try that. It's worked every time for me.

Idk why but the game kept entering passthrough mode while I was playing then after about a second it would switch back to the game and everything near me would just fling away., and my body would be rotated about 20 degrees in another direction This never happened in the other games. Even happened with controllers directly in front of device held out in clear view of tracking sensors Doesn't seem like a tracking issue., but i'll play around with it next time I attempt to play. This issue has made the pouring of cocktails extremely tedious. I wish the liquid would remain in the glass forever unless you squeeze trigger, like the lemon.

UPDATE:

Figured out the issue.. I was tilting my head back.. Game has ZERO tolerance for backward movement during the first level. It thinks you are going outside of the play space. Gotta play it hunched forwards.

I agree. The first level should always be easy to help the player discover the game. Then you can increase difficulty.
