This Puzzle Stumped SO MANY PEOPLE!

Calling a Lyre a “crossbow” and a “three pronged sword” when it being a musical instrument is established already is wild. Maybe a harp? Or a weird guitar? Nope, tri-sword. Thanks for the laughs, Tyler.

Tyler, I'm gonna save you a few future headaches (no puzzle spoilers whatsoever): There are a lot of missing / incomplete things in the game. Some of the islands you were trying to get to don't actually... Exist. There also is no turtle exit in the magma island. There are some map inconsistencies and unimplemented meta puzzles, too. From what I gather, the devs planned to put this in but IRL troubles got in the way. So if you're racking your head on how to get to an area, don't. However I will say that every visible collectable and snake eyes IS some valid puzzle that has been implemented.

Awh, sucks.. :(

[@_pyrothegod_]

I honestly love the “Last time on” section, and how it blends into the actual video It’s really nice of a refresher

[@Kraiglyndor]

Hi Tyler. If you’re aiming for 100% then you should know that along with the 109 stars there are 12 of each stone and 13 keys once everything is unlocked. Also, the cloud covered islands don’t exist. They don’t show up on the world map so they’re probably for a later update. In regards to the story… from what I understood the Green Goddess, accompanied by the 4 Elemental Gods, fought the Void Serpent in space. The Serpent pushed everyone back but the Green Goddess exchanged blows, damaging the Serpent’s core but getting bit in the process. The Serpent fell, the core dropping into the sea and the corpse becoming an island, while the Goddess power dispersed into Stars and fell to the islands below. The 4 Elemental Gods took the sleeping Goddess and created a temple for her to rest in before separating to their own islands. As this happened the core, infused with the Green Goddess’s energy from her last attack did the Yin/Yang thing and created life. When the Green Goddess woke up (now as the Priestess) she sensed the core and went to finish the job, however when she pulled out her spear and prepared to strike she hesitated. What she sensed inside wasn’t a monster or a beast, but a person. The Priestess decided to wait, returning to the temple, as the core hatched and drifted to shore where he awoke under the control of the player. From there the reincarnated Serpent gathers the Stars that were once the Goddess power in order to reach new areas, learns from the Priestess about his origins, and seeks out stones to get the favor of the 4 Elemental Gods to reawaken their elementals and open the door to the sanctum before finally returning the power and working with the Gods to expand the world. As for why the priestess slaps you it’s probably because you’re the reincarnation of a dangerous beast. Even if her contribution to your birth would probably make her your mother you did nearly kill her and destroy the world, she’s definitely wary that your evil nature still exists until she can witness otherwise. The puzzles she creates might even be a test of rational thinking and logic over crudely bashing your way through.

[@alexsmith6281]

Actually, the whole thing has more to do with the traditional world creation myths of the Polynesian cultures than anything you described, thanks to the scene at the end of the video, as it is traditional in those cultures to have the gods create the islands.

Snake eyes are any secret, Tyler- music notes, hidden paths like the ladder on that first island, or something like the star sleeping behind the waterfall from a few episodes ago. If it is not immediately visible and obvious as something you can do, snake eyes are there for you.

[@boium.]

Oh the thumbnail puzzle. I searched around the entire isle to find the remaining statue. When I finally concluded the blue one wasn't there, I decided to push the blue statue off the grid. I just so happened to push it into the ocean while all others were at the right place.

[@pavelogorek6575]

That also took me a while but I also used the flags on the map to mark where each of the dudes is so for reference(there are multiple colours, about 8).

It’s amazing how you solved the puzzle for the water crystal in such a different way from what I did, experimenting with tons of ideas that were all different from what I experimented with. Really open and creative puzzle. (I used the water elemental to copy other elementals a lot, mainly by copying the air elemental. It allowed the water elemental to escape on the right, opening a tons of other ideas, like trying to extract the right most water cube, etc.)

[@lgpen999]

This series is one of the best I've seen in a while, it's sad to think it'll be coming to an end soon. For now though, thanks for another banger

[@05degrees]

Then the game will be updated some time after with everything that’s not done yet, and there will hopefully be more episodes!

[@ShadowIncarnate]

Fun fact, I solved the water gem puzzle without using the rock dude, clearing the green directional block for his area, or pushing down either of the buttons... The key is an interaction mechanic between the wind dude and the fire dude. If you use the wind dude to move the fire dude, the fire dude moves forward one square and then rolls into the next, as if pushed again. He only fires if he successfully rolls forward a square after being moved. So you can move the fire guy into place to shoot the bell, without spending any charges on it, if you carefully block its forward motion with the ice block accordingly. Then, send the iceblock down the river to cover the first spikes, and leave the wind dude on the final spikes, and he'll push you up and over if you jump into the river. Then just push the water dude into the gem yourself. In short, Wind dude interactions are OP, this helped me make short work of the final puzzles.

[@michaelwatkins4155]

You can just abuse water/wind interactions as well. Water can copy wind endlessly, if you adjust properly, you can move them to break puzzles. You can use it to break water out of it's intended zone in that puzzle, and swing it around the right side.

[@Zeckenschwarm]

I wonder if he'll start this journey by finally getting the wind item? I wonder what the minimum number of equipment is that you need to reach this ending.

[@nathantaylor4942]

I found that bug as well. I reported it already to the discord. Fire elementals that move by any means other than you pushing them crash the game. It also happens when you use wind/ice elementals to push the fire elementals.

[@skytime9444]

that coloured statue puzzle was DIABOLICAL like the solution completely makes sense but idk if i would have thought of it

[@Schilani]

In my opinion that puzzle is one of the stupidest in the entire game. It's just way too obscure, because nothing else requires you to just... throw stuff away. And given how many people had to look this one up, I'd guess they would agree with me.

[@swordzanderson5352]

@@Schilani Literally half of the game requires you to throw stuff away by blowing up blocks or destroying logs. This game already breaks conventional thought, I can see frustration stemming from having to push it off the water, but it is not at all illogical. If you're frustrated because you spent a lot of time lost on it, sure, a lot will agree, don't blame it on it being stupid.

[@Schilani]

@@swordzanderson5352 As far as I have seen, it's the only puzzle of this type still. Sure, you throw boxes into the holes to create a path, but you never just push a box out of the map.
