Isthere going to bean update? The gameends when typing "Quest" to thestatueand there's no other way to progressafter getting the lettersA, E, P, Q, R, S, T, and U. Great gameso far!
after filling the star t room with water, you can go right again
it sends you to a blank room, but if you wait, the room will turn into the "just one mistake" room
but if you go back left before fixing the room, you'll enter a blank orange room, if you wait here instead of waiting in the other room, a brick platform will appear at the bottom, you can't see what happens if you go left before the brick platform appears, because there's just not enough time to get to the other side before it fixes itself
if you go left you'll enter a blank red room, if you keep going left and reach the middle of the room, it will be revealed that you are in the "it is always bats" room, and that you're standing on the text box at the top of the room, even though you are on the bottom (this room has the mechanic that if you fall to the bottom it sends you to the top, but the text box stops you from going to the top), you can jump from the text box to the other side of the room, but you won't be able to grab the letter (the jump is pretty big, I failed it multiple times)
but once you reach the other side you get to a room with a ladder, going down the ladder sends you to the other side of the TECH barrier, which I'd assume you're not supposed to have gotten past yet
but if you keep going left, past the ladder, you will go through multiple rooms of different colors, until you reach a room that has the H, but you can't reach it, because it's under a platform that you can't get under without falling into the room below, which is in-bounds (if you try to go back to the right in the H room, you just can't, the right side becomes a wall)
this confuses me though, because I thought I saw the H somewhere else in a video, or maybe someone else commented about it (now that I think of it, they might've been talking about this same glitch)
-- unrelated to the glitch, can skip until I say "back to the glitch"
another confusion is that in all the videos I've seen, they give the letters to the wizard guy and the game ends, but you can get past the wizard guy and over to the other side of the room, and it takes you to the "Jimi can swim" room, the same room as the "you were not supposed to be here yet" room, which leads to other water rooms, and eventually get you to the room that you fall back into if you fall from the H room (on the path you can also find the letter U)
also, there's an A letter block stopping you from getting past the "Jimi can swim" room, because it's below you, and you can't shoot downwards (shooting a wall and having your projectile FALL doesn't work for it), but you can shoot at the corner right next to the A block, and you'll be able to break it (this only works if you shoot upwards, not left)
-- back to the glitch
back to the H room, if you get to the top of all the platforms, you can go up into a room that just says "Hi." with blocks, this room seemingly has no other purpose
and that's about all I found
I uploaded a video of me performing this glitch to Outplayed's site (Outplayed is a free video recording program that is made for recording games with an easy keyboard shortcut, but they also have a screen recorder that you can use for anything, would recommend), and here's the link:
Sooo i'm stuck at the "Press Start" and i gather that i have to use the ' button except as you can see my ' button does not give me a star (*). I have to first hold down Shift then click ' so i can get a star (*). In this game it does not work doing it that way so i cannot continue. I even tested just incase by using the "Multiply" button which gives me a star (*) but that one does not count so i'm out of luck.
Tl;dr; I got stuck and i cannot continue play because i have a non-english keyboard.
Shift 7 should work for the star on any keyboard. I looks like the developer is looking for a keycode rather than the appropriate character press unfortunately.
im stuck after i got U i dont know what else to do like i know where H is but i cant get to it because i fall past it and i cant figure out how to get H or what to do next (please help
Same here. The start mechanic doesn't work in the H room [new version after speedrun vid 3mo ago], or any room around it as far as I can see. Nor are there any activated speech boxes.
Also it's possible to lose letters in the room below H, they float to the ceiling if shot left.
bugs i have found so far: -if you shoot a lot at the shades guy, you can lose letters permanently
-when you add water to the bottom right room, it lets you leave to the right out of bounds
-the movement of text boxes can push you into blocks, which lets you move around very strangely
-the sides of moving blocks can warp jimi up or down
-the halloween save can interfere with the normal save in weird ways
-winning the game made giving the cat any letter (or maybe just e?) win the game instantly
one time i got the halloween textbox to appear in the normal game, i jumped and it warped me through the floor into the cat room, and i gave them a single letter to beat the demo in 14 seconds
This game is so cool! It takes some puzzling to figure out some of the mechanics; it's a little weird that only that one room has the star * T effect and that it does multiple different things, and the dialogue with NPCs could perhaps be sign-posted a bit more (maybe some hint as to what letter they want?), but overall, it's a fascinating game that's a lot of fun to explore and I look forward to the rest of it!!
I made this account very specifically for this comment. I cannot figure out where to go from the room with the H powerup in it; I feel like I need it to progress due to the H gate in the cat guy's room, but I'm unsure.
wait, I think i figured out something! when you type s to the cat dude, he says "start. it is important to convert rooms" so i went to the room where you have to press star t, and i pressed it again, and it changed the room, so try that
The new update was tons of fun, I rather liked the underwater mechanics and the new letter throwing (I'm pretty sure I couldn't throw up before). Managed to get my Quest underway, although I almost softlocked with a speech bubble provided by The Speaker (as I'm calling them)
Very VERY excited for this game! I enjoy what we have so far. A few notes I'd like to give:
1. If you start in the wrong place, it'll softlock you.
2. The jump height feels somewhat inconsistent? In that first room for example, to grab the A's from the top message, Jimi is just a bit short to get it. But if you jump enough he'll eventually grab them - maybe I'm not good at gauging it, but it doesn't seem to visually correspond to the platform jiggle?
I'm definitely going to donate when I'm available to do so. I hope this project can thrive! <3

i got as far as possible
I'm stuck at the start part
Is there going to be an update? The game ends when typing "Quest" to the statue and there's no other way to progress after getting the letters A, E, P, Q, R, S, T, and U. Great game so far!
that's the end currently! i'll update the game one more time this year, adding character quests.
*jumps on textbox*
I h going o b n d? H gm nd whn ying o h nd h' no oh wy o og f ging h l nd. G gm o f!
much better
H O W ?
J U S T H O W ?
As of November 18th, (I strongly believe that) The max amount of letters you can own are:
-a
-e
-q
-r
-s
-t
-u
Hope this helped :)
Edit: u can also get
-p
I got a P
I forgot p sos :(

Shift 7 didn't work but i also tried Shift 8 and then it worked. Thanks for the help.
and send that q the the guy to make qeust and beat the game
guys i found something
if you got h you and go back to the star t room
and press star t again. the room will fill with water
and with that you can get q
how on earth do you get the H
I'm also stuck at the H, did you figure it out?
Damn, this game is so hard I accidentally sequence broke the game before I managed to shoot the plushy in the cool room
how do i press start in browser?
suffocating 'A' anyone?
im stuck after i got U i dont know what else to do like i know where H is but i cant get to it because i fall past it and i cant figure out how to get H or what to do next (please help
im trying to figure out h too
Same here. The start mechanic doesn't work in the H room [new version after speedrun vid 3mo ago], or any room around it as far as I can see. Nor are there any activated speech boxes.
Also it's possible to lose letters in the room below H, they float to the ceiling if shot left.
once you get q feed it to cat looking guy or something and then type what the textbox says (youre at the end)
i love this gme

-if you shoot a lot at the shades guy, you can lose letters permanently
-when you add water to the bottom right room, it lets you leave to the right out of bounds

one time i got the halloween textbox to appear in the normal game, i jumped and it warped me through the floor into the cat room, and i gave them a single letter to beat the demo in 14 seconds
it is any letter
oh yeah i should also mention that this game is awesome, and i can't wait for the full release
how do I do the water part
This game is so cool! It takes some puzzling to figure out some of the mechanics; it's a little weird that only that one room has the star * T effect and that it does multiple different things, and the dialogue with NPCs could perhaps be sign-posted a bit more (maybe some hint as to what letter they want?), but overall, it's a fascinating game that's a lot of fun to explore and I look forward to the rest of it!!
Just saw this new update and it is great! This game has really come far from three months ago :)
can't believe it's been that long :o
I made this account very specifically for this comment. I cannot figure out where to go from the room with the H powerup in it; I feel like I need it to progress due to the H gate in the cat guy's room, but I'm unsure.
I'm having the same problem, I cannot seem to get that h, and i cant see any other way to progress
wait, I think i figured out something! when you type s to the cat dude, he says "start. it is important to convert rooms" so i went to the room where you have to press star t, and i pressed it again, and it changed the room, so try that
i almost never do this but as a fellow game dev i thought you would probably be motivated by fanart so
ooh this is lovely!!
is there a way to win, because i cant really speedrun if theres no ending
the game currently ends when you reply to the mysterious cat character with the keyword 'QUEST'.
theres a cat?
oj the statue also i think its bugged cause it happes when i type que
The new update was tons of fun, I rather liked the underwater mechanics and the new letter throwing (I'm pretty sure I couldn't throw up before). Managed to get my Quest underway, although I almost softlocked with a speech bubble provided by The Speaker (as I'm calling them)
Very VERY excited for this game! I enjoy what we have so far. A few notes I'd like to give:

wen next update
NOW
nice concept!
i did a speedrun:
heck yeah! it is indeed a WR, i've had someone else speedrun this and they took over a minute.
Ooh, I like the concept. Looking forward to the rest
very cool! the wife found this delightful and insisted we pay immediately :-p
i believe i have softlocked
no letters left
go right using the ladder
i cant get passed the bats because you need letters to kill them, but i dont have an
y
just hard reset youll get back to where you were quickly
i did, imagine i got myself in the same situation again, heh, heh, heh.
it took a solid 30 minutes to shoot the guy idk
How to progress after you get the S
hold shift press 8 and t
Neat idea, but the game seems a bit broken in a number of ways.
oh boy, tht was difficult -<-'
no matter how many times i press the asterisk button in the room where you get the S block, it doesn't work :/
which keyboard layout do you have?
the normal kind, qwerty
are you hitting 8 and t at the same time? you dont need to hold shift
ohh thank you, i was pressing them one at a time
Is it possible to get to the S block or get some of the other letters like I in the game?
in the room with S hit * and t. You cant get I though.
I meant the room that has the E block after you get the ability to use the S key
I liked the game so much that I had to post it on my other channel.
how do you press star
Here, my friend.
finally
i looked at code, turns out theresnothing behind the s
