General Hints / Controls


To be honest I didn't want to make hints as I thought they would lessen players' precious experience of finding solutions by themselves. Though on second thoughts, players wouldn't enjoy the game if they don't understand the rules in the first place, especially when this game has complex rules and I didn't have enough time to implement a nice tutorial during the game jam. So I decided to give you a list of general hints, not specific hints, to take you to the starting point of this puzzle.

  • Baskets
    • Hanging baskets: You can hang baskets only at poles. You can't hang baskets at the middle of ropes.
    • Moving baskets: You can move baskets only at poles. A key and S key move the baskets to the opposite direction, so if you can't move baskets, try the other key. If there is no space for a basket to move, it stays the same place.
  • Goat:
    • Our good friend: Cute. Adorable. The second best animal on the earth. Wondering what's the first? It's birds.
    • Waiting: If you don't want her to move, let her sit down to wait with C key. While waiting, she doesn't eat apples.
    • Ground: She can't walk over ground. She ignores apples over ground or if there is ground between apples and her.
    • Multiple apples: If she sees multiple apples in her sight, she walks towards the closest apple. Nobody knows how she sees apples behind her.
  • You
    • On goat: What you can do on the goat is either to wait or to get off the goat. You can't hang or remove baskets while on the goat.
    • Turning around: If you try to move towards a certain direction but you can't, you face that direction. If you can move towards a certain direction, you can't turn around in place to face that direction.
