Play the secret level, then you can free the last one.

I freed the 17 cyborgs and I can't open the door on the central platform ! Apparently there's still 1 cyborg missing on the platform and I see one behind the door that I can't open ! How do I continue please ?

Thanks for the quick reply. i was able to grab the platform.

@Sharks ate me:
If I understand correctly, then you are a speedrunner.
Unfortunately, that's not how it works here.
You have to unlock everything one by one.
You can unlock the platform in Puzzle 8.
You need the recorder for that.
Sharks ate me 22 Feb @ 8:27pm 
Question. I cant seem to find how to unlock the platform. I've completed all of the puzzles in the initial world(short cutted my way through most of them) sorry if this is a dumb question. I have all of the sigils necessary. Can anybody help?

World4-Puzzle3: The box outside the puzzle was always there.
A new box has been added to the puzzle.
Violets are blue 5 Feb @ 1:40am

@Prototer:
Thanks again.:cozybethesda:
Something has been remodeled and now that is no longer possible.
Prototer 29 Jan @ 3:02pm 
@ma.hirsch nope, wasn't fixed... (I did re-install the map just in case) though I did learn there's another star associated with the puzzle. decided to attach a screenshot to better show which star I'm talking about.

@Prototer:
Thanks.:cozybethesda:
It's better now, isn't it?
Prototer 28 Jan @ 1:00pm 
world 3 puzzle 2... I don't think you should be able to collect the star from behind an active barrier (by quite literally hugging it), right?
Why does the advance apear on VANILA VERSION ?
ma.hirsch  [author] 26 Jan @ 9:23am 
@FestyFeet:
Thanks.:cozybethesda:
Corrected. Hopefully.

@Ma(j)ster:
No. You should only be able to take the connector with you.
Thanks for the tip.:cozybethesda:
I will correct that.
Ma(j)ster 22 Jan @ 4:51am 
@ma.hirsch Is this the right solution in 2nd world or exploit?

@davcook:
Thanks.
I'm glad you like it.:cozybethesda:
Level 4 - Puzzle 01a I will test.

Go down the stairs where you freed the administrator
and go through the corridor to the end.
There you will see what you have to do.
davcook 20 Jan @ 10:34pm 
Thanks for another great game. All of the puzzles were excellent. This is probably pretty dumb, but after finishing all four levels I have a bunch of tiles, and I don't know where to put them. I have no idea where to get the purple tiles to open the final doors.

BTW, Level 4, Puzzle 01a can be cheesed. Its possible to use the fans and the boxes to climb up on the walls above the red tile and jump down into the cage. In fact, I thought that was the solution, but you are trapped there and need to regenerate
ma.hirsch  [author] 19 Jan @ 11:24am 
@Violets are blue:
Thank you too.:cozybethesda:
Update is online.
Violets are blue 19 Jan @ 8:29am 
puzzle 4 w3 is the one with most exploit i think with jump able wall, 1 jammer and the recording is enough tto solve that puzzle without any light
Violets are blue 19 Jan @ 8:09am 
oh i get the bug below too, actually some other time too, i remember the star from the puzzle opposite to the one below could be jump into too.:steamhappy:
ma.hirsch  [author] 18 Jan @ 11:37am 
@DJL:
Thanks.:cozybethesda:
Update is online.

Weird, please try this link instead:
https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3408657683

I see the link I shared on 12th Jan does work though, I think you may have missed that one.
ma.hirsch  [author] 16 Jan @ 10:30am 
@DJL:
When I click on the link, nothing happens.
DJL 16 Jan @ 9:40am 
I suspect this is unintended too?

@HW67Ddox:
Thanks for pointing that out.:cozybethesda:
That wasn't what I was planning.
I actually forgot to put the switch on the pillar.
Sorry.
HW67Ddox 15 Jan @ 2:25am 
At the end of puzzle 4a on level 2, the lever to move the fence seems to be hidden inside the pillar,
Is this intentional?
It appears to be a newly placed object after the update.
If it is not intentional, please fix it.

Please don't misunderstand me! I enjoy your content very much!
I am using a translation tool to write this, so I apologize for any rudeness or grammatical errors.
Violets are blue 13 Jan @ 7:47pm 
damn gonna be long, since i move to solve puzzle 4 before return to check :v
HW67Ddox 13 Jan @ 8:48am 
Does this content intentionally have mechanics that freeze the playable character and make them notice hard-to-see items?

While I was playing, I was confused by the strange movements of the playable characters.

The location was in the area where the cube driver was in World 2, near the top of the fallen pillar at the back.

In this case, load the last backup
and try again.

DJL 12 Jan @ 6:00am

I'm guessing I set it up wrong, but an escape hatch would be nice :)

I had the high flying purple laser but it required me to manually move a connector in this puzzle from red to blue. Putting it on the buzzer meant the blue didn't stay charged for long enough to get through

@Drogget:
Thanks.
I'm glad you like it.:cozybethesda:

Well done on this map pack. https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3404979286 I was hoping that there would be more interesting puzzles in the star world though. I believe those were all stock from the original DLC. Nevertheless, it is good to see campaigns still being made for TP
ma.hirsch  [author] 8 Jan @ 9:36pm 
@Drogget:
Thanks for the tip.
Update coming soon.
Drogget 8 Jan @ 4:34pm 
I'm enjoying the campaign so far. I am a longtime shenanigan hunter in this game and so I figured I'd let you know about something that'd ruin the intended puzzle design of World 2 (Egypt). It is possible to make a jump from the red slab, to the green pillars in the following screenshot: https://i.imgur.com/ZdygIQF.png

This allows the player to steal 4 connectors and 1 box from the puzzle, trivializing the central puzzle and most meta related puzzles of World 2. You would need to extend a grate two box lengths tall to prevent this as you can still use that puzzle's second box to break out the 4 connectors if you only raise the fence 1 box unit in height. With the box removed from the puzzle also, it is possible to steal 2 jammers and 2 more connectors from another puzzle.

I believe I have found similar exploits in World 1 and the Tutorial (World 0) areas as well that would need editing to help remove sequence breaking and out of bounds exploits.
PrologicMind 6 Jan @ 4:50am 
Thanks. Niice game. And I didn't have a single bug in the whole game. But.... There was no my favorite melody from TP2 (Far From Home)

@AG:
L1-P7:
The wall behind the star.
We'll leave this bug.
The mini jammer is an Easter egg.:steamhappy:

Solve the last stand.
Then the portal will take you to the end of the game.

Thanks.:cozybethesda:

@ma.hirsch, nice puzzles, really nice. i enjoyed myself. BTW, I love Secret,P6 and W1,P1,Star best, which are much better than the original. Looking forward to your next work.
AG 3 Jan @ 3:27pm 
@ma.hirsch: just checking how the game ends. After releasing admin, the portal at the end of that area doesn't take you anywhere? Is there another exit?
AG 3 Jan @ 2:12pm 
darkgreenblue 2 Jan @ 10:54pm 
Yup, done. This time Mr Mulciber behaved. I warned him never to do that again! :)
ma.hirsch  [author] 2 Jan @ 10:03pm 
@darkgreenblue:
This has never happened to me before.
In this case, please load the last backup.
ma.hirsch  [author] 2 Jan @ 10:00pm 
@Attagoat:
I'm glad you like it.:cozybethesda:
I think I'll continue with reawakened.
ma.hirsch  [author] 2 Jan @ 9:59pm 
@dogdu:
This mini jammer.
I never thought that someone would actually take it out.
ma.hirsch  [author] 2 Jan @ 9:59pm 
@Violets are blue:
Glad you like it.:cozybethesda:
I fixed that bug too.
darkgreenblue 2 Jan @ 9:53pm 
Mr Mulciber (World 4 puzzle 3) is messing with me, because after freeing him he stands on a useful pressure plate, but then moves off it before I complete the connections, and now he just stands there on the grass like an idiot :)
Attagoat 2 Jan @ 9:33pm 
love this! are you going to make content for reawakened when it comes out?
