Difficulty
A precision platformer about a mountain and a stamina bar. Dash crystals refill the dash; strawberries are optional; B-sides and Farewell are the real mountain.
Tips
- Start here
Stamina is the grab button
Don't hold grab on every wall. Climb in short bursts, dash to a crystal, then grab again. The dash refill from crystals is the room's actual checkpoint, not the starting gate.

Assist Mode is allowed
The game's Assist Mode (game speed, infinite stamina, extra dashes) is a designed option, not a cheat. Use it on a chapter that's stopping you; the story and the later B-sides will still be there.
- Advanced
Wavedash is diagonal-down plus jump
Dash diagonally into the ground and jump on the same beat for a wavedash. Demodash (dash and grab on the same frame) shows up in Farewell; learn it in a chapter 1 room before you need it on a spike corridor.
- Advanced
Hyper dashes on ice
A hyper (down-diagonal dash on ice plus jump) is the speed the late B-sides assume you have. Chapter 8 Core wants both the ice and fire crystals before you chase the crystal heart.
- Secrets
Cassette tapes unlock B-sides
Each chapter hides a cassette that unlocks that chapter's B-side. Collectibles (strawberries) are optional; the tapes are the real extra game. Farewell unlocks after the epilogue and is a full campaign of its own.
- Secrets
Theo's selfie and the hidden berries
Mirror Temple's Theo sections hide berries behind the selfie mechanic. A winged strawberry wants a dashless grab route; if you dash, it flies away, so plan the room as a climb, not a dash puzzle.
