General hints thread
Feel free to make a new thread if you're stuck, but you can ask for specific hints here as well!

Keep in mind that the game was built around the idea that you can pick your levels pretty freely; almost every area starts with slightly easier levels so it may even be a good idea to check out early levels in other areas before doing the final levels of an area.

How do I get past Lake-2. I figure it has something to do with combining the rock and star. And I think the goal is to make Crab is You but I have no idea how to!

You have the right idea, but I think you're off just a bit. Try to find a way to remove the skull in your way. Then know more than 1 thing can be you.

Right I get that, but I don't know how to change the vertical Baba Is You

I'm stuck on Lake Extra-1 Submerged Ruins. I feel like I have to somehow put Baba Is You in vertical, but I just don't know how.
edit: NOW I got it. I thought my first few steps were pretty much obvious...

First of all, it took me more than an hour, so don't feel bad for not getting it right away. And finally finding the answer is rewarding. But if you're really stuck I'm give the solution bellow.

become Keke and Baba at the same time. Position Keke and Baba in a way one char is is above the sentence "Wall is Stop" and the other is bellow the same sentence. Go up or down. One of the words will be in the same square as one of the chars. Now you can move up or down to separate the sentence and go get the Win.

I um... I'm stumped on Level Fall-10. I thought I had an idea but then realized it wouldn't work cus the flag would still be unreachable.

Lake 11: I've set up the rule "Jelly is Baba," but upon moving any of those tiles away, the rule stays intact. I'd imagined that doing so would change the Jelly back into a Jelly; am I misunderstanding how this works?

When a rule transforms one kind of object into another (as in your example, 'JELLY IS BABA'), the transformation is indeed permanent. You'll have to use the undo button if you change your mind.

I saw hints and figured it out. The one extra hint I feel I can then give is, try pushing the word crab up one, then moving some other words around and over there.

What was your idea?
General hints: You need to use the flags to teleport Keke. Put him in a spot where he'll be useful.

Fall-10 is the one with the trapped fungus that also has the flag. I can't seem to get the fungus out or even get the key (or leaves if those are needed) to it.

I finally got it. Have bullrushed through the others since then. I'm not sure why that one got me stuck for so long.

Island 11 Prison seems either broken and or bad design. Because if its not broken, then you are asking me to do something ive not been taught.. Which is a bit frustrating..

Want to add to this, Prison 11 was very hard because it asked you to do something that wasn't really explicit before(even though you probably already saw the mechanic), namely that Inactive characters can get text pushed over them. Solution: push the "WALL is STOP" over an inactive character, make it so that X is YOU, and then break apart the WALL is STOP rule

This was a thing I found out by accident. Though to be fair it was demonstrated with the push command which text always has (unless I supposed when it's set to not push but that would break a level.)
Anyway I think there were previous levels involving pushing things over inactive things.

Also remember you can push things over objects that are defeat so long as they are not also stop.

Yes i finally got that it :P good hint there. Definitely not Immediately obvious.. Gotta say that move block is pointless, that did nothing but confuse me lol. But maybe that was the point

You need to help you with the text of rock. First you set rock is you to take his text of program. You set in vertical the text "Rock Is Push" on the wall. You take the rock in the crab. You push it with his text. And with the "Rock" block you became the rock onto the square with the flag and CONGRATS !!!! (P.S.: I find this in 3 hours, it's not the first idea we can have X) )
I'm sorry, I don't get what you're trying to say. What do you mean by 'program'?
