Levels and Maps
Level 0
Credit to Aggressive-Show-8274 on reddit (He has given permission for me to use)
There are 2 exits on Level 0, Pitfalls (Chess Board on the right), and Big Room/Normal Room (The bottom).

Habitable Zone
Credit to Aggressive-Show-8274 on reddit (He has given permission for me to use)
There are 3 exits, Top Left, Top Right, Bottom Left, (might be bottom right aswell, not sure). Do not look for exits aside from the ones ive listed. B-Hopping can be very useful in this level.

Pipe Dreams
Turn right and walk till you see the rainbow lights

Level Fun

My friend HostileFrost explains this way better than I ever could with typing it

This level will take some practice

Poolrooms
Do not go into the blue tile/dark glitchy rooms. Once you wander for a bit you will find a room with squares with round edges on the ceiling and floor, once you get there turn right into the room with big archways. Once your there go in room kinda diagonally across from you, you should pass one more normal room and then find a big blue slide.

Run for your life!
The items that fall dont fall randomly, they all have a set pattern, its mostly just memorizing that pattern. The only thing that can go unscripted is the blue lockers/mattresses/shelf thingy, sometimes they wont fall the same exact way each time.

The End

Once again HostileFrost can explain this better than I can with text. (Took me 5 mins my first time, its a really annoying level)

Level 9223372036854775807
Go up the stairs, once you get to a certain point, the middle hole will open up, if this is your first time and your on solo go until you get to the floor that says ∞. Once your there drop down.
B-Hopping
The simplest way I can put this is,
1. Press sprint
2. Then jump
3. Once your in the air let go of sprint
4. When you land repeat this process

It took me about 3 hours to get good at it and even after 30 hours of playtime I still mess it up.
Glitches
These very well might get patched in future updates but heres the helpful ones

The End Monster Stuck Glitch
Visual Tutorial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g6QrclpWSfA

Level Fun Stuck Glitch
In the second room, there is one partygoer that doesnt face the way you need to go. Get a reasonable distance behind him and move a bit to the left until all the other partygoers start chasing you, if you do this right they will all get stuck on the partygoer that isnt facing you and you can progress that part easier

Level 0 See-Thru Walls
Turn your graphics quality all the way down in the settings, then go up close to a wall and you should be able to see thru it

Notes
If there are more things to add and change in future updates I will be changing this guide. Edits of the guide will be noted here

If this help you consider rating and adding as a favorite!
