FAQ
How do I defeat the forest guardian boss?
The forest guardian follows a three-phase pattern. During the first phase, avoid its sweeping vine attacks and target the glowing pods when they open. In the second phase, use the falling rocks to your advantage by luring the boss beneath them. The final phase requires quick movement between platforms while attacking the exposed core during its recovery animation.
Are there any permanent upgrades in the game?
Yes, Aidan can find permanent upgrades throughout the game world. These include health extensions, double jump capability, damage resistance, and special weapons. Unlike temporary power-ups, these upgrades remain with Aidan even after losing a life or completing a level.
What do the mysterious crystal shards do?
Collecting crystal shards throughout the levels is crucial for unlocking the true ending. Finding all shards in a world unlocks a special challenge level. Completing all challenge levels with all crystal shards collected reveals additional story content and the secret final boss.
How does the difficulty scaling work?
The game's difficulty increases both within and between worlds. Early levels introduce mechanics in controlled environments, while later levels combine multiple challenges simultaneously. Adaptive difficulty subtly adjusts based on player performance – frequent deaths in a section might slightly reduce enemy damage or increase platform size, while skilled play leads to more challenging spawns.
