The Last Tapestry

[Portponky]

A topic for thoughts and feedback on the update mission. Did anyone solve it? Did anyone play it?

[JiminP]

I don't know how cauldrones work. 'Grow' (solved) and 'Fork' (unsolved) don't make sense for me yet

[Marsgreekgod]

I... so it goes to the room and doesn't change it? so I can store stuff there?

I miss the rings...

OH SHI...[i.imgur.com]

Edit: actually they are nice dudes

I strongly agree. I need some explanation on mechanisms on how cauldrons work when they move between rooms, or when two 'same' cauldrons are in a room.

[JiminP]

Ah, the colors are supposed to have meaning, right?

[Portponky]

Voice acting is pretty expensive, sadly I can't afford it for these free updates.

[JiminP]

Hmm, so each cauldrons have some kind of 'color' attribute, each color holds a stack, and when a cauldron is used, the player goes to the most recently used caldron (or root) in the color of the cauldron?

I understand that. perhaps text only?

some new item that is text only so it doesn't feel as out of place?

Still trying to understand the new mechanic. Will post a spoilered message with my understanding if I figure it out, though I haven't even come across these rumoured colored ones yet

[JiminP]

I solved all crystals and (I think) over half of diamonds and rubies.
The mechanic is simple once it snaps in, but there should be an intuitive tutorial.
I think diffferentiating colors of bubbles popping out of cauldrons (so that they will indicate destinations) would be fine.

[Luraman]

Managed to understand the mechanic.

Hint: Keep an eye on the color of the background!
Tecnical Hint: The achievement you get is a hint. Google is your friend.

Mechanic: The cauldrons are context switches. When you enter a cauldron you go to a specific parallel attempt at the level called a context. The same cauldron will always lead to the same context. When you enter a context you've already been to, you'll continue that context where you left off (Exiting the cauldron you left in). When you enter a cauldron and just exit it again, it is because that cauldron leads to your current context.

Now I'm on to try to wrap my head around this mess instead of feeling confused for 3 hours.

100% solved.

I don't like that some levels require moderate amount of controls (not much harder than the voids but though), but overall the puzzles were great.

But I haven't got all achievements... I have no idea for thread dancer :(

My favorite puzzle is 'Flight' in page 2. Getting ruby was real madness.

1. 100% solved. I dislike some rubies because of the hard timings. It wasn't too difficult for me but I think some people will find a problem with them.

2. There's a bug the left-side walls on invalid levels is not sticky if you throw the objects from zero distance. It's not critical, but it's sometimes annoying.

3. I would be easier to catch things if the cauldrons' boiling bubbles have the same color of the target world's color.

4. Thread dancer is fun! That small detail...

[queued]

Just obtained all achievements. Thanks, I had a lot of fun!

[Portponky]

The left-wall sticky bug is fixed. Also levels 'Drop' and 'Submerge' have had minor tweaks, so try them again if you thought they were a bit too easy.
