Really frustrating, no walk through or hints anywhere. Wanted to love this (as so many have apparently) but didn't get far at all

Objects can get stuck in the middle of the tunnel, too far from both players.

Fixed the bug causing the missing letters for completing the HORUS part
ZWi€B€L 19 Jan, 2023 @ 8:56am 
room is broken there are no letters in the other room anymore to solve the horus riddle

Same issue here with HORUS. First, it's difficult to even recognize these letters on the wall. Second, there is nothing on the wall to translate them. Also, 95% of all items on the map are useless and it's not shown which items are actually used for something and which are not. The thing to pull out in the beginning is also very random.

i also need help with the horus part. How on earth do we translate it?

Hey, we are stuck on the 5th puzzle with the word "HORUS". We have no idea how we can "translate" the word with the equation. Triangle is 9, Circle is 6 and Square is 3. Can somebody please explain that? :) Thank you.

Short, but sweet room! Made a mess with the books, so we had to reset the room to solve the dice puzzle. No big deal though. Thanks for sharing!

Enjoyed this puzzle, found a bit of a glitch where I accidentally "fell" into the room next to the equation room, which lead me to discover I can run through the walls if I aim at the corners of each room, not sure if this can be fixed, or if it's just a limitation of the game.

@muro i didn't know how to format for spoilers, but that is what i was trying to say wasnt working, that word and that set of numbers didnt open the lock for us at that time :)
Muro  [author] 12 Dec, 2021 @ 3:29pm 
@Zalbag13 Just tested right now, the walkthrough had the outdated word, but the letters forming the current one, "HORUS" are displayed on a wall and make up the code 52674 which does open a wall for me in the current version
Muro  [author] 12 Dec, 2021 @ 1:44pm 
Hello @Zalbag13, yes room should be working as intended by now, I'll look into that issue asap, thanks for the feedback ;)
Zalbag13 12 Dec, 2021 @ 3:09am 
maybe a recent bug, the word on the wall is not as listed, and converting the letters that actually are on the wall to numbers doesnt open lock

nice but very easy

Finally played this to the end and from both sides. Great map and a lot of fun. The only thing I'm not so fond of is the shapes/math puzzle. Kinda brute forced it.
Muro  [author] 3 Nov, 2021 @ 4:05am 
@Member of the Order, they actually did, I forgot to take of the warning, thank you for the heads up ;)

Fyi, I did this on linux and it worked fine. I think they patched the custom textures thing recently

After struggling on the equations for a while the rest of the room was super fun. I greatly appreciated the nod to the "We Were Here" series. <3 Those are some of our favorite two player co-op games.

very nice medium difficulty room! love how me and my partner were seperated in the room! little note though: the first puzzle was too obscure in my opinion and we had to look up the solution, maybe the use of a different and less common shape would make it more obvious :)
Muro  [author] 24 Oct, 2021 @ 3:01am 
Thank you @Taco, it is a known issue but sadly I don't have a solution for it right now, I hope future game updates will make it so it doesn't happen :)
Taco 24 Oct, 2021 @ 1:10am 
very fun! found a bug, not sure if it's fixable on your end, but ill mention it just in case: i pulled out the colored books before inserting the key to make the bookcase rise. when it rose, some books fell through the floor and my partner and i had to restart since i couldn't remember the correct count of books for each color. worked fine 2nd round when i kept them in their original spot though!
Muro  [author] 23 Oct, 2021 @ 2:39pm 
Thanks for the feedback, sadly this is an engine issue which is very hard to work around, I hope for a fix from the devs :)
Encaris 23 Oct, 2021 @ 2:18pm 
Great room, only issue is you can cheese through the key box. Lol, I got the key without solving the lock. ^_^
Muro  [author] 23 Oct, 2021 @ 2:28am 
Haha, sorry for the typo, fixed it, and SFX aren't in the editor yet but be sure I'll add some as soon as I can 🙂
Shaymin 22 Oct, 2021 @ 8:27pm 
I like the room, but please fix the following if possible:
- On step 5 of your walkthrough, you say Equation Room, Equation Room. Please fix it to be Book Room, Equation Room. I was yelling at Second Player to hug the wall when they pressed the button.
- I haven't touched the engine, so this may be on the devs end. If possible is there a way to have SFX occur when a new room is opened? Again I yelled at Second Player to look around their surroundings. LOL.
Muro  [author] 22 Oct, 2021 @ 12:17pm 
Thanks to @MD87 we also have good reasons to think it is linked to the LINUX version of the game, so if you encounter the same problem, please wait a bit and come back to experience the map correctly when this is fixed :lunar2019smilingpig:
MD87 22 Oct, 2021 @ 12:15pm 
Thanks to @Muro for the help, turns out we were hitting some kind of engine bug and couldn't actually see part of the puzzle!
MD87 22 Oct, 2021 @ 11:34am 
Step 1 of the walkthrough doesn't make any sense to me :(
Muro  [author] 21 Oct, 2021 @ 10:40pm 
Thanks you for the feedback @hexx101, the puzzle door and lock is due to game engine, hope I'll be able to fix it soon, the crouching one I didn't notice tho, thanks a lot, will fix ASAP !

@Onyx you can take a look at the description to get unstuck :/
Onyx. 21 Oct, 2021 @ 9:49pm 
absolutely fucking flabbergasted at the first puzzle, unable to figure out the code lock combination
Samo 21 Oct, 2021 @ 8:04pm 
really good pls make more
hexx101 21 Oct, 2021 @ 5:58pm 
Great room! a little short but I totally understand as this a is brand new game. Hope you will keep motivation to do a longer similar idea! Thanks for the challenge of splitting players.

P.s. i did find 2 "bugs" in playing. In the beginning room with the triangle, square, and circle puzzle I was able to bypass the door by crouching in the corner of the room on the side of the door's hinges and get into the room with the color puzzle. Also while not a big deal in the beginning room the key puzzle door and lock remain after the wall moves. Thanks again for a fun room!
Bee 21 Oct, 2021 @ 10:27am 
Cool room, hope to play your next one.
Vy Ladyyyy 21 Oct, 2021 @ 10:27am 
Nice ideas for the room ! Please add more versions of this kind !

Well the "wheels spinning on wrong axis" bug is in fact fixed now
Muro  [author] 21 Oct, 2021 @ 12:54am 
Thank you very much for the kind comments guys <3

I added a walkthrough to the description to help stuck players.

The wheels spinning on the wrong axis is a known issue, i'm looking to improve the map but I'm not sure I can fix this with current editor. :steamsad:
SteelCougar 20 Oct, 2021 @ 11:35pm 
Cool idea. The dice wheels were spinning on the wrong axis for me.
mac  [developer] 20 Oct, 2021 @ 11:10pm 
That's awesome, can't wait for you to expand on this idea. 4 people? Why not :D
G0rilla  [developer] 20 Oct, 2021 @ 3:24pm 
What a great idea! Just awesome!
