I think I'm about to ask for a hint for the first time. Spent an hour and a half on it and still don't feel any closer to figuring it out.
LEVELisBABA
The creature named "Baba" coming from a puzzle videogame made by an indie studio identifies themselves as the human being sitting on a chair in front of a computer used to run the software known as "The identity of Baba corresponds to that of yourself.executable".

Baba is based. I'm surprised at how good the game is. I thought it would end up being some indie hipster bullshit, but it's genuinely fun and challenging.
I'll give a hint
you don't need to interact with the left side
Fuck this fucking level im not even glad i found the answer.
I like that one, I thought it was clever.
I'm stuck on a whole bunch of levels though
>im not even glad i found the answer
This is increasingly how I feel about the game.
Baba art thou
The same way other than pushing something onto you that you use to beat every utterly bullshit level.

You can absolutely tell when a level is based on something the devs found randomly while experimenting and levels like that fucking kill me.
kat.cr
But that rule would mean there is a knife inside Baba, not that Baba has a knife equipped.
gib sunken temple tips.
It's been patched to fuck and back so now you do.
List of things you can do.
>push Keke
>make Keke a Skull
>make Keke or a Skull turn up
>change the wall from something you can push blocks or Keke through, but which kills you if you try to pass it to something which you can't pass, but won't kill you
>walk onto a Skull for the 3 turns while it is swap
>push something onto a Skull while it is Swap
Other things to keep in mind, Up means whatever you're doing will be at or near the top wall. You can destroy blocks to free up Keke Is on the right wall using the Melt/Hot mechanic.
Now what can you do in 3 turns (how long the Swap mechanic is in play) that takes advantage of some or all of these mechanics in the very limited potential order they could have any logical connection to one another.
Is there even an EQUIP rule? If not, that's the closet thing we got.
I genuinely don't even remember that level, so it must have been piss easy.

Thanks cutie I always forget that site for some reason
Then why isn't it called baba is me?
Because ME isn't (You).
You is you
Well, sometimes he is.
Why does this game make me feel so retarded? It feels like every solution is incredibly obvious after I spend an hour trying to figure it out.
You don't always play as Baba or Me, hence the only constance is YOU,
pls halp
See
I thought the volcano level with the teleporting boxes where wall makes Baba empty was that because it can be solved with a freaky interaction between Shift and Tele where Tele fires off on the tail end of Shift and shunts you out of the way of a wall death, but then I found out there's a slightly harder and less cool solution that is probably what the devs intended.
Option A: +.
Option B: Rules that are broken can continue to apply on the turn they are broken depending on which rule it is and how it is broken (moving a block and removing a block function differently). Push is the most forgiving type in that it persists through the turn it is broken no matter how.
That's generally how deep puzzles make you feel. If they were all easy the game would be trivially easy but novel like Portal 1.
It's like figuring out how math works by yourself. Once you understand the tools in front of you, you can do so much more and see things in a new light.
Baba Is Me would just leave you with Me and everybody hates Me. Fuck Me.

What is Baba?
Which zone should I go next? I'm almost done with deep forest, only 3 levels remaining but they're too hard
BABA IS YOU

RETARD
Baba is whatever you can make Baba be.
I think that's the name of one of the later levels.
_YOU_
Whichever? There's no reason to stick in one zone. Just try out the first few levels of each and see which one interests you most.

But seriously, It was a night like this forty million years ago. I lit a cigarette; picked up a monkey skull to go. The sun was spitting fire. The sky was blue as ice. I felt a little tired, so I watched Miami Vice, and just cause open and shut destroy each other, it doesn't mean you have to always destroy shut with open. The reverse works.
IIRC you have to swap the door and the key
baba is win
Makes is in the game, brainlet.
Garden is hands down the hardest of the first 10 levels. I actually liked

HOLD UP I HAVE A FUCKING QUESTION
WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF BABA IS BABA
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
I figured it out
well it'd mean baba wouldn't be anything else but baba
Have fun with Return to Scenic Pond.
I'm glad I got this game early. The constant patching means I get to come back to completed puzzles and figure out new ways to beat them cause I always defaulted to cheese strats.
This pops up later in the game as a mechanic, so to answer it would be a spoiler.
It prevents Baba from changing into other things.
Sometimes you need that "and is" to make the sentence longer when you push it.
everything going well until you need one word that got stuck in a corner
Baba is baba
Unless Baba Is Not Baba, in which case Baba Is Empty.
Motherfucker, I 100%ed the game and unless they patched a level, you NEVER have to make And Is.
If Baba is Baba you can't turn Baba into anything else, but Baba can still be You
X Is X is done to prevent you just turning everything into something else and just turning something into the Win object
Well is there even a Pissed block?
>unless they patched a level, you NEVER have to make And Is.
Which is weird when you think about it because And Is is functional in rules.
Yes. It's called Swap.
>Box is not not push
fucking hell, every time I come across this shit I just feel more and more like a retard
Yeah, hit him when he bows to you at the start of the fight.
ha
>I 100%ed the game and unless they patched a level, you NEVER have to make And Is.
Many levels have multiple solutions. Sometimes they patch them cause one is too simple but still.
There's another solution to that level.
It involves NOT ME ON FLAG IS WIN.
"have to"
>clear Flower Garden
>clear Chasm
>can't fucking clear Deep Forest, like three levels I've been banging my head against for days
There's a PISS block, but that's from the fetish mod.
Does "And Is" even do anything that "And" by itself does not?
No, in the same was that "is not not" doesn't do anything that "is" doesn't do
Which levels are giving you trouble? Post screenshots of them. Some of them are a bit unintuitive.
There was a person a few days ago who was stuck on Skull House ... after being spoonfed the solution in clear instructions and screenshots. Somehow, he was still stuck.
Thanks for makin me head over to youtube just to listen to it right the fuck now
yeah, the devs seem to very deliberately put red herring solutions in many levels that are just ONE tiny thing away from actually being possible
and then you have to think outside of the box and actually do something else entirely, it's genius
>Deep Forest
I'm sorry. The Stupid is terminal. Also it's on the bottom row and there's no And or Not block.
*angry sheep noises*
Skull House, Lock The Door, and Insulation. I don't outright want the solutions, but hints would be nice.
depends if he means clear as in 100% complete or not. there are some bs levels in Deep Forest, like insulation
Looks like the belt isn't fast enough! you'll have to shift it into a higher gear.
belt is shift and shift
>and then you have to think outside of the box and actually do something else entirely
You should keep this in mind for later, assuming you haven't finished the game.
Don't ask for help. The solution to that level is galaxy brain. Also, Baba is a rabbit.
Skull House relies on a really unintuitive interaction. Ask yourself why the game would give you this many "is" blocks
I have a belt now, doesn't seem useful.
Skull house: One item can be turned into two.
Lock the door: I don't remember that one. Post screenshot.
Insulation: SWAP can be used to move items onto STOP tiles, such as solid walls.
What kind of horseshit is that? Now effects stack on themselves? How deep does the rabbit hole goes?
tell me about Floodgates. I'm pretty sure there isn't a trick to it, but I can't for the life of me figure out how to contain these stars
I haven't doing multiple things right now, just cleared some levels in volcano but earlier I did find a bonus orb
So I'm already geared for funky shit
>Skull House
r
>Lock the Door
j
>Insulation
see
unless you're on Switch in which case git fucking gud, the level is full of cheese.
These Chasm levels are fucking awful. Most of them are bruteforce-y as fuck.
THREAD is DEFEAT
>I have a belt now, doesn't seem useful.
You're talking about Crushers, right?
Text and Skull are the most useful things you can turn that level into. You can also turn it into Belt, Flag, Keke. You can turn it into all of these at the same time if you want.
Try looking a little closer at the word make, readlet.
You playing DRM-free? A lot of the force cheese was fixed on Steam.
Why would "and" not suffice?
>How deep does the rabbit hole goes?
I mean...in one level you can turn an object into 6 things simultaneously. So pretty deep.
But that's technically in the rabbit hole's rabbit hole.
You have to "corral" them step by step by adding "more" and removing it right away.
That's what I've been doing, but it gets out of hand once there's 3 stars and I can't contain them anymore. Is there really nothing more to it?
Chasm is fun as shit. The fuck are you talking about? It's basically a preview of the weirder shit in mid and late game.
What properties does WALL have?
WALL is MOVE
"corral", not "contain".
I mean...S blocks are in game too so I'm still right, bitch.
I know I can push the walls as well as the text, but it just seems there aren't nearly enough to properly adjust the flow. I don't think I can do anything with the outside wall except push one onto the flag which I don't think gets me anywhere.
>Knows he can push the walls as well as text
>Knows he can reposition them after each MORE
>can't beat the level
... excuse me?
FO IS NOT BAD
TM
Welp, figured Skull House out. Not even mad. I wouldn't have thought of the solution myself. I would've figured if you tried to do
X Is Y
Is
Z
it would execute the rules sequentially rather than simultaneously.
Sometimes the game does sequential actions - if two objects with MOVE try to shunt the same thing in different directions, it'll only shunt in one of them, rather than shunting into both.
In general though, the game executes all of its rules on every step.
How do you complete this level?
Talking about the level selection level.
> in mid and late game.
You mean chasm is still early game?
I'm about 20 hours in, how long is this game?
??? does not have a win condition. What a shame.
BABA is YETU
This game is 220 puzzles long. But the levels in the last area about twice as long, because even -getting to- the level to select it is itself a level.
How many pollen do you have currently?
I'm still stumped. On the previous version you could rig it to swap a wall onto baba and escape that way but now since everything's up against the right side you can't do that anymore, and even if you could you need WALL IS HOT to be able to do KEKE IS SKULL in the first place. I'm no closer to figuring out the moon logic of the intended solution than I - or almost anybody, seemingly - was on the original version.
PRAY ON SWAHILI IS MUSIC
I have replied to your post with the answer and you seem to have ignored it. I will try again.
SWAP can be used to move objects onto tiles with the STOP property.
BABA IS YETU IS ULIYE
114, trying to complete all the levels
>On the previous version
That's still how you get out.
>but now since everything's up against the right side you can't do that anymore
Up+Swap trickery.
>and even if you could you need WALL IS HOT to be able to do KEKE IS SKULL
You can push a block into the wall yourself so you don't pin a block or timegate yourself.
That's not useful though since you need WALL IS HOT in order to make KEKE IS SKULL at all since almost everything is flush with the right wall now, so no way to break up that statement otherwise. But then you have three turns to do something with SWAP, which is not nearly enough to go all the way to rhe left to make WALL IS STOP. And swapping a wall onto an object is not useful before that since BABA AND TEXT IS MELT.
Also, I'm not that user you replied to earlier.
>That's not useful though
It is. Think harder.
>you need WALL IS HOT in order to make KEKE IS SKULL
Text Is Melt
I need help on meta
As far as I can tell, I need more flags to open all the doors, but there aren't any more levels I can turn into flags
>accidentally take away "is"
>both you and baba completely lose any activity or awereness, becoming nothing more than a fleshy pile of granite
Now, first, let me check your assumptions:
>you need WALL IS HOT in order to make KEKE IS SKULL (along the bottom row)
False.
>so no way to break up that statement otherwise.
True.
> But then you have three turns to do something with SWAP
True.
>which is not nearly enough to go all the way to rhe left to make WALL IS STOP
True.
>And swapping a wall onto an object is not useful
True.
>BABA AND TEXT IS MELT.
True.
RED IS MOVE AND MOVE
Remember how in Skull house, you turned one object into two different objects at the same time?
Take a closer look at level 08.
Level 8, that you've turned into a flag, can be more than just a flag.
First of all, your Meta-8 Isn't solved correctly. Second of all, Ghost_Open will come into play later. Third of all, consider your ability to change things back and for into other things including 1 thing into 2 later.
Here is the Insulation spoonfeed, but I'm confident that if you spent a bit longer thinking about it you'll get it on your own.
Swapping a wall onto an object IS useful depending on where you're swapping from and what the object is, m8.
This level STILL needs another patch? Jesus fuck. That's not the only way to solve it.
I must be doing Entropy wrong. Am I correct to assume that I need to make "all is open", "baba has rock" and "rock is you" at the same time?
Hol up.
There's more than one solve?
I'm going back in. I'm gonna see if I can find it.
WAT
I got it turned into text, how the FUCK do you do them all simultaneously?
let's say you have to use one of the words in your sequence vertically, but there is a defeat wall preventing you from pushing the word manually, and it won't reach without the "and is"
I feel like such a retard getting stuck on puzzles, but I refuse to look up any hints.
Why do they keep patching levels? Isn't breaking them part of the fun? Seems like Baba Is You slowly getting sanitized.
I am cum
If a moving object manages to relink an X Is You rule after you break it, you become X again and can continue playing. You is the only true conscious entity that exists in the game. Everything else is just an empty vessel for You to inhabit.
>Level has GRASS is HOT spelled out
>Removed the GR
I did it
Put something in the doorway (?) leading to the flag.
LEVEL IS SHIFT
Let the level shift downward for 4 tiles. The WALL IS STOP is now lined up with the object you left in that doorway
Wall is no longer stop
Skull is no longer defeat
Put the word "Belt" on the Flag object. Flag is text.
Put the overlapping BeltFlag on a Skull object. Flag is text.
Wall Is you.
Put the overlapping BeltFlagSkull on Keke. Keke is Text.
Simultaneously make "Level is Text" and "Level is BeltFlagSkullKeke"
Though personally I wouldn't make the level both Text and Flag at the same time, because then you won't be able to push the text without winning Depths (and getting kicked out to ???).
In this case, do Flag is You instead of Wall is You.
Wait, that works?
>stuck on extra level
>too autistic to leave it unfinished
>too autistic to look up solution
I guess I'm done then. I couldn't even make it through the second zone.
>how the FUCK do you do them all simultaneously?
Level Is Shift and a well-placed Text block lets you turn the level into your bitch by disabling the walls. Alternatively you could remake Text Is Weak to do the same. Basically once you get rid of Stop, the world's your oyster. You can stack text upon text.
All is Open + All is Shut will destroy all non-text on every turn.
What you're looking for instead is All is Rock, Rock is You.
thanks guys
Not him but I did both of those and it's still not complete
Here's your entropy "spoonfeed", but the level is pretty much trivial once you've figured out how to escape the box you start in.
Well, I guess this is what happens when you get stuck thinking about the same solutions for too long. I'll be outside shooting myself in the fucking neck if you need me.
Yes. The game processes Push, before Move and does a Swap check after each so if you Push Keke onto the Skull it swaps left onto Baba, then it moves up and swaps the wall onto Baba, clearing the way for Baba to leave.
Tiny Isle is the hardest puzzle in the first 10 areas of the game.
Baba is not me
Don't you come into this thread with your bullshit, hear me?
Is there any actual point to doing all that?
Smug sense of satisfaction.

How does Anni fit into the lore? We know Anni is best, but WHO is Anni?
There are 2 ways to solve that level. One involves lots of shift fuckery. The other involves making a Baba injector. I recommend the shift fuckery. That was the final EX level of the final map before it got moved to where it is now. It's probably one of if not the hardest level in the game.
How is that bad? Do you only play games that aren’t ever popular? Sounds like the typical contrarian rhetoric here.

WHAT THE FUCK DO I DO
I can get Keke down so he's right in front of the chamber with the text in the lower-rightish but how the fuck do I force him to turn around so he doesn't fall in
>I can get Keke down so he's right in front of the chamber with the text in the lower-rightish but how the fuck do I force him to turn around so he doesn't fall in
1. There is a clue in your image. (a lot of levels give clues in the initial setup)
2. What are the only ways to turn something around? Go through them and then think about ones you could use beyond the skulls.
You get him to fall in there from the right side
Can you place ANNI and what does she look like when she moves?
The only way I know of to turn something around is to make it hit something.
Unless there's a duplicate MOVE somewhere in the level, I can't make Keke hit the text and turn around, and I don't even know if that wouldn't result in him falling.
I can't get ME down there first, since I can't make ME turn and MOVE downward or turn ME into KEKE to make it FALL.
I can't assemble KEKE IS FALL either.
Does something get turned around if it hits something while it's falling and moving? Am I supposed to have KEKE push ME?
Lies I just did it in 30 seconds
>Automated doors
Fucking WORD bullshit
So how long is this game assuming you're somewhat proficient at puzzle games? I'm doing a couple 6 hour plane trips in a month and want a nice thing to play on my shit-tier laptop during the plane ride
10h-20h.
Fuck you crab.
>Does something get turned around if it hits something while it's falling and moving?
There is no "while falling". Fall is basically an instantaneous teleport and you don't change directions while it happens. That said, moving objects that hit a wall do indeed turn around.
>Am I supposed to have KEKE push ME?
I genuinely can't respond to this without giving you way more of a hint than you would want if you're trying to solve this yourself. Keke Push and Me are all involved in the solution though.
Remember your goal is to hit a piece of the fence first, not contain the stars. After that the stars not the skull do shit
It will last you more than 12 hours, if you play without hints and do all 221 levels.
My new best guess is that I'm somehow supposed to get keke and me to both move at the same time, with keke walking on top of me- but maneuvering things such that ME IS PUSH and KEKE AND ME IS MOVE is impossible without letting keke fall off of me. What do?
Took me two hours to beat this shit
Sweet, thanks
i swear im not retarded
but the game is making me go retarded
What at the fuck am I even supposed to do?
ICE is obviously WIN.
EMPTY IS PULL doesn't seem to do shit.
ICE IS PULL seems pointless.
Can't transform ICE or EMPTY.
Don't have enough text to pull WIN.
This puzzle makes me feel like a brainlet.
Put Keke on something other than fucking Me while you set up, doof.
More like 40+ hours for me
Just think of it as you're getting more from your purchase
Experiment more with pull. It's going to be one of those, "I didn't know you could do that" solutions.
A long line of things can all be PULLed as though they were one entity.
But it looks like there's a lot of EMPTY space between you and win...
That's normal.
Is either a troll, a brainlet that couldn't get Baba to Flag on the Map, or somebody that asked for a shitton of hints.

Okay fine, my playthrough took me 35h and I lied.
But still.
BABA is USELESS
torroar stop being a depressed bitch and realize you write better than most fags, including durin
>victory springs
i dont get it
Text sinks if it's on the same plane as the Is Sink object. Text can push text. You can use the fucking Cogs.
BABA IS STUPID
WHY THE FUCK CAN'T THIS DUMB FUCK CATCH THE MOON
Things that are falling with only land when they land on something solid, like a "stop". You're not stop.
Pay attention to the "is" up there. That's not there for no reason.
Baba is Baba
Baba is NOT Hand
hmmm if only BABA could STOP the moon from falling
Only things which are STOP, PUSH, or PULL can block the movement of other objects.
Would a "shift" work, I wonder? I can't think of any levels with fall and shift.
Nah, they'll just sink straight through SHIFT enabled blocks
WHY THE ACTUAL FUCK DOES "X IS PUSH" MAKE IT POSSIBLE FOR SOMETHING TO FALL ONTO IT BUT "X IS PUSH AND FALL" NOT MAKE IT TOUCH YOU, WHO IS CAPABLE OF PUSHING, STOPPING THE FALL
Shift doesn't stop movement, so it wouldn't.
Congrats, you learned how PUSH works!
Now you can go and beat Prison / Dungeon.
Baba is not push, Baba just pushes stuff around. You aren't corporeal like an actual Push object.
>G R A S S IS H O T
>push away the G and the R
hehehehe
haha
I already fucking DID those because that push made SENSE
Then did it make sense how you could push text onto Baba and have baba not block it?
Because the same thing is happening with the Moon here.
And? Do you eat the same food every day of your life and never try anything new?
Because text movement is innate and X IS PUSH movement isn't innate. Or are you telling me every level has TEXT IS PUSH hidden somewhere?
UwU
This is me after playing a day of baba is you.
TEXT obeys the same rules as PUSH I'm pretty sure. You can even do "TEXT IS NOT PUSH"
text is push is "hardcoded" but can be overridden with block rules
TEXT IS PUSH is an intrinsic rule. It obeys the same logic as any other object that is PUSH.

For the first time since Prison I looked up a level's solution in Skull House
My god, that was fucking dumb. Prison kinda felt clever, but Skull House interaction makes no sense. So horizontal takes priority over vertical? Or what, I don't get it
>does the game tell you when you collect EVERYTHING everything?
For the first few levels if you're on an old path/Switch.
It can extend a sentence to be longer so technically it could be useful.
When the level editor comes out I'll make a level that uses it.
>So horizontal takes priority over vertical?
No. Neither has priority. Both are performed. If one took priority over the other, you couldn't solve the puzzle because as soon as one happened, the other couldn't.
>I don't get it
How did you solve Skull House then, if not by turning one object into two?
Because you wouldn't be talking about "priority" if you turned one object into two.
No, neither has priority.
Oh fuck, for some reason I thought that key was there all the time, yeah I realize there's no priority now
Still, cloning the object is the most unintuitive thing yet
>crushers
I don't even know what I'm trying to make the level into.
Does level is text do anything?
>cloning the object is the most unintuitive thing yet
Wait until you see Text overlapping, Shift stacking, Tele priority, and Level Near Flag.
No it isn't. Two simultaneous "is" statements are the same as a "is and" statement. Saying a Rock is Key and Baba is the same as saying Rock is Key and Rock is Baba at the same time.
Already did the shift stacking, was more sensical than this desu
Can't wait for the others though
>I don't even know what I'm trying to make the level into.
>Does level is text do anything?
It does. Try it and see what you can do!
>VIP Area
so I realize you can pull off a Prison with the two rocks to separate KEKE IS STOP, but then how am I going to get KEKE out of there without having the flag kill itself? Am I on the wrong track entirely?
Either post screenshot or mention what part of the map this VIP area is at.
Do you see that little gap on the left?
Yes, I was trying to get the rock into there, but then the flag kills itself on the Kekes
???-8
fuck lads i loved the game but i think it's getting too hard for me now
chasm, volcano, deep forest, gardens, i'm stuck in everything
like, is this level meant to be hard? because i spent a good 45 mins so far, trying everything i can come up with but nothing worked. i'm at my limit
Really? I still don't know how you're supposed to do it, I just used "is" to push the boulder into the flag room which felt janky as fuck.
You know the rules, user
That's the intended solution. It doesn't need a patch. Nothing is broken.
Puzzles have multiple solutions all the time. They patch stuff that has broken interactions because they don't want people to discover them by accident and start breaking later puzzles thinking it's intended.
You gotta make the bugs weak.
The bugs don't stop you from pushing words through there.
i tried that, but i ended up with 2 boxes without being able to find a way to save more or multiply them, which means i can't get to the exit. i don't know what am i missing
I hate this game. It doesn't properly explain shit, it's too fucking confusing.
I feel like if there was a proper explanation for all the interactions, if you weren't expected to just try shit until you work out what does and doesn't work, that fucking text takes on the same properties as the tile it controls, that glitching into strings is actually a valid game mechanic and not an engine quirk, that syntax that SHOULD work doesn't because you can't stack text in certain directions, then I could enjoy this shit.
But as it is, it's just frustrating, and not in an enjoyable way. I don't feel smart when I finish a puzzle, I feel pissed that the solution was so dumb.
You definitely don't need to break that many boxes to get to the side of the doors. I think I got 6 of them through to the other side, I remember having spare keys left.
Game is self explanatory and experimenting new mechanics takes few minutes at worst.
You are just pissed off.
You mean this one?
>how am I going to get KEKE out of there without having the flag kill itself?
Pretty goddamn easily, actually.
Yeah I got it now, I just had to splt the words a second time so I could get both rocks stuck under the 3 wall gap.
>that meta level where you have to turn level into flag and baba simultaneously
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH WHY ARE THERE SO MANY WAYS OF TEXT STACKING
That level is hard if you stumble around blindly.
It's relatively easy if you take it in steps and realise what you need to do.
The first step is to get something you control on the other side of the bug fence.
Correction: the first step is to get a KEY you control on the other side of the bug fence.
Becoming the boxes is easy but accomplishes nothing.
You're not moving around the right way. Because you can indeed save 5. Since you're already trying to push "and weak" at the right place, think that a little indent in the 9 boxes made in a corner is enough to do that, instead of slamming 3 at once into a wall.
>Got all this stuff here
>Solution causes the game to become unstable and every turn takes 30 seconds for the game to process
>Take 5 minutes to get from where the door was to the flag
This is the canon solution in my baba universe, deal with it.
Sometimes I'm surprised at home some levels are simple and then realise they were just here to introduce a mechanic.
Baba memes are too good for this world
I feel the exact opposite. Everything feels pretty logical. I'm in world 8 and haven't had to look up anything yet.
THE FLIGHT PLAN I JUST FILED WITH THE AGENCY LISTS ME, MY MEN, DR. BABA OVER THERE, BUT ONLY ONE OF YOU.
FIRST ONE TO TALK GETS TO STAY ON MY ROCKET
A classic meme.
BABA NOT FACING MASK IS DEFEAT?
>having trouble with some early levels
>open some images of the later levels in this thread
>my brain shuts down
BA IS FOR YOU
BA
GUY IS YOU AND BIG
Perhaps he is wondering why would you ROCK IS MOVE AND SINK a keke before ME IS FALL ON ROCKET IS FLOAT
>X is not X
Baba is ewe.
PIPE IS NOT PIPE
Baba is a rabbit why is there even debate about what the character is supposed to represent.
X is X prevents X is Y from working.
What does this even do in-game?
Don't think you ever have the opportunity to do it, but my assumption would be that it would turn the object into everything on that level that isn't that object. Like object IS ALL, except it doesn't spawn one of itself.
X is not X makes X disappear
Puff of logic. I think there's a level that requires you to do that.
>tfw I'm becoming smarter with every puzzle I solve
This feels like a Zachtronics game and that makes it absolute kino
Game makes me feel like a brainlet
How much harder does the game get later on? I'm on Prison in the Island world right now and so far a good number of puzzles have made me feel like pic related.
Lake: 2
Ruins: 3
Volcano: 4
???: 5
Depths: 6
Meta: 8
You have not even begun to feel like a brainlet
wrong, I solved it without ever having a key on the other side.
Keke >> baba
Guess there's more than one solve, but how do you manage to prevent the boxes from all smashing while you try to make the bugs weak?
BABA IS HOT
KEKE IS NOT
You only need to remove one, you make a kind of crab claw shape.
form a claw grip by breaking the bottom middle box on the protruding wall placed there for that purpose.
Ah, That works. Thanks.
Garden is the hardest area.
Baba is YOU AND NOT FLOAT
So I'm on switch and don't have a level maker, but I want to know if something works
What does TEXT ON (object) IS NOT WORD do? And for that matter, what does TEXT IS NOT WORD do?
TEXT IS WORD means that every piece of text on the level also acts as though it has the word "Text" stacked on top of it.
TEXT IS NOT WORD prevents the above, but otherwise has no effect.
So you can't selectively prevent text from being read?
there's a level hidden in the rock and the lake
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA IM FUCKING RETARDED. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Only with some pure goddamn jank
Such as by covering the level with Tile, and making every single rule include "Near tile" or "On tile". Then you can remotely set TILE IS GRASS or GRASS IS TILE on and off to switch your rules on and off.
YOU are BIG and GUY
So, question
If I wanted to make a sokoban level, where after putting rocks onto a 2x3 pile of tiles I win the level, how would I do that
Of course text would be hide first off, followed by text is not push so you only focus on rock pushing
Next, tile on rock is grass, grass not on rock is tile to make sure that it is recognized as being on somehow
and grass is word so something relies on grass being there to activate
but I don't see a way to make a 2x3 pile of the word grass to set up a win condition where all the grass must be active at once for the win condition to take effect
What I'd do with that is to put some hidden objects underneath the 2x3, hide them all
STAR ON ROCK IS CRAB
CRAB IS STAR
TREE ON ROCK IS BUG
BUG IS TREE
KEY ON ROCK IS DOOR
DOOR IS KEY
etc
then I'd make ROCK NEAR CRAB AND NEAR BUG AND NEAR DOOR AND etc IS WIN AND NOT PUSH
It's pure jank but it WILL work.
Maybe GROUP could be of use
Which I suppose isn't exactly what you're after, given that the level doesn't -win- when you put the rocks in the correct spot
But it requires far less commands, and it'll scale no matter where the rocks get pushed and how many push spots there are.
Any hints on this? Is there another obscure mechanic that i will learn later?
Just use GRASS NOT ON ROCK IS HOT instead of that jank.
You're right. My bad.
I guess I'm not much of a programmer.
BA
BA
IS
BRO
KE
It hasn't even begun.
think about how to nullify "water is sink"
Put Grass under all the tiles where the rock needs to be pushed
GRASS NOT ON ROCK IS HOT
The player can, at any time, push blocks to make "Level is Melt" and then "Level is Win".
Sure! I'll tell you which two water tiles you need to destroy. Once you know that, you'll have far less options to check to see what you need to do to win.
Where's lewds?
Baba is NOT lewd.
A has B and is C
Everything must go.
Ah, good thinking. I hadn't thought of that.
I think we've already crossed that line.
Nice
THREAD IS UP
Because brainlets haven't found all 3 orbs and beaten the game.
there are at least two levels that require making an object type disappear in a puff of logic
Remember to turn off Wobble Effect if you plan on playing for hours
Baba is sleep
Night is good
After finishing level i got stuck for an hour in 20 seconds I feel like a retard again, this fucking game.
Almost there!
Funny thing about puzzle games. You do bad, you feel stupid, you get better, you feel stupider.
Huh. Seems a new level was added.
Correction: Two new levels.
Meta now has (at least?) four extra levels.
And I'm not seeing where the third extra level could be.
My assumption is that it's the Cursor, but I don't see any way to make the Cursor into a level.
Here's one of Meta's secrets. Looks to be a remix of A Way Out.

Greetings, I'm venturing beyond the usual threads I check.
Is this game fun? I'm thinking of purchasing it.
It's good if you enjoy puzzles.
It's bad if you don't enjoy puzzles.
I'm not exactly sure what I should be doing next.
And I -think- that's the max final scores for this version of the game.
221 levels, 11 areas, and 3 orbs.
HELP
09 IS BABA and 11 IS FLAG
HOW DO I FIX IT
You need to make another word out of the letters you have available, in order to get past the walls.
"HOT" is close!
It's perfectly fine as it is. Welcome to the second half of the game!
BUT I DIDNT BEAT THE LEVELS
The flag can be selected as normal.
The Baba can be selected if you move it and the cursor onto the same spot on one of the white lines.
NOT BABA IS PUSH
Thank you for the hint. Bloody game has a way of making me miss the obvious.
what the fuck? it wont let me select baba on the white line but the cursor left the whiteline and moved with baba
if the cursor is on baba and baba is a level, then you can just press the level select button (A on switch) and play that level.
BABA
is
WAIFU
Congratulations. Existence is Fragile, and you broke it.
how the fuck do i beat this
in every way i manage to get the win out from that corridor there's no empty is to attach it to
Am I even close?
It didn't get 2 new levels. Meta had 3 EX levels before. All they did was change what level Meta's EX level is, swapping it with a hidden level from ???.
It's must have if you enjoy puzzles and aren't a brainlet. Avoid if either isn't true.
It should be 222 if you beat Bottleneck's EX version before it was removed.
What game is it
Sorta...you indeed need to do what you're about to do, but your bug and belt setup is wrong. Think about what shift actually does on a mechanical level and how you could do something other than putting them one in front of the other keeping in mind it is applied simultaneously.
the solution does involve making both belt and bug SHIFT, but the way you've arranged them is not very useful
I can't even begin to imagine what the solution is
Your setup is ALMOST correct. The main problem you have is that you're moving a tree.
Try moving something else.
Alright lads, after spending over an hour on A Way out? I'm ready for a hint, don't make it too obvious if possible.
You'll need to open the box.
But to reach the box, you'd have to erase the water.
And how are you going to open a box, when all you have is a bunch of empty space?
Which A Way Out?? Switch A Way Out?, pirated earlier version A Way Out?, or current A Way Out??
that one is bullshit. it has everything to do with empty; gain access to the box using it, open the box using it and get the key.
This one
Oh shit. I just went to check and my solution was patched.
See that little alcove beneath Belt? It's there for a reason. The number and position of the Ice tiles is also there for a reason.
Try and assemble Rock Is Push with that information.
I get that you can push keke there to enable the belt while you are outside, but the forming rock is push in that shit place with the ice seems not possible
>I get that you can push keke there to enable the belt while you are outside, but the forming rock is push in that shit place with the ice seems not possible
Push rock down while the belt is disabled. That should help you see the route.
Oh goddammit, I figured it out. This fucking game. You swear some puzzles are literally impossible, but there's always some ridiculous and perfectly logical solution you're overlooking.
I got it, thanks user. Was pretty close on my own but couldn't get that final stretch
We all are user
>thought this would be a fun game to play with my bf
>figured it’d be like a fun portal 2 type “haha you idiot that’s not the solution”
>1 hour later
>we’re now just fucking pissed at each other
thanks anons. also i got to that other level
what the fuck is the orb?
But do you have knives?
ORB by itself is an object like any other, such as CRAB or TREE or BAT or BABA.
BONUS, on the other hand, is a new collectible keyword.
Jesus Christ just fuck each other. That was the real puzzle solution all along anyway.
So what's your favorite level
Just take a 69 break and go back at it.
I liked my solution better, involving sending Keke moving backwards and forwards on the same row that I have "ROCK IS PUSH" set up in.
user, it’s your boyfriend. Why aren’t you waist deep inside of me RIGHT. NOW.
I don't think you can do that anymore
Yeah, they blocked off MOVE from above.
That makes me a little bit salty.
Is it possible to Win Fragile Existence the normal way?
Of course it is. There's a Win. Gotta get it out.
>Tried to solve Fireplace doing some kind of complex set ups
>End up finding the solution by accident
Did you try TRIGGER is PULL?
this fucking game

GE IS RE
BABA IS HOT
is this a new map?
I dont remember this one
Yes. Added in a recent patch to tutorialize Space Is Wait.
In absence of comfy switch general, should I get this or hollow knight?
What is this game exactly and is it actually good?
did it replace another map?
Oh, that looks like the new map that was added to Lake. I guess they moved it to Island.
You need to co-operate with the Bolt to stop the Skulls from being harmful!
Try the free Game Jam build and find out.
hempuli.itch.io
This.
Yes.
Seriously, they're entirely difference games. One is a metroidvania, one is a puzzle game. They're both great, just depends on what you like and what you're in the mood for.
No. It's 100% new.
Block pushing puzzle game where the rules of the game are blocks you can push and rearrange.
I like the game and I don't see anything obviously bad about it, but that doesn't necessarily mean it's good.
It IS better than the Xcom remake, Deus Ex: HR, Fallout New Vegas and Bioshock though.
Both are top of their class for their respective genres (puzzle/metroidvania).
I'd say Hollow Knight is a better platformer though. Platforming in Baba Is You is a bit of a pain.
I'd definitely get both if you can scrounge up the cash.
CUM IS MAKE
Get this if you want to play intermittently
HK if you have time to play
Both if you have the money
I loaded this up earlier and it wracked my brain.
Adding a new level to lake that is way harder than lake feels kind of dumb but the difficulty is way up and down anyway, doesnt really matter
Am I doing this right? Because I can't think of any other moves here. I already did Level is Sink and Baba
Very creative tile-based puzzle/logic game. Yes, it's amazing.
BABA is HE THICC
Looks like you need to push that SINK out of the way.
Wonder which wall you might want to destroy in order to do that.
Reminder that the guy who made baba also made Environmental Station Alpha which is a very well designed and atmospheric metroidvania. Definitely worth checking out if you're into metroidvanias.
>spoiler
Then no, you aren't doing it right. You don't need to go outside to clear the level the normal way. That's not even the intended way to do what you spoilered, funny enough, although you can do it that way.
LEVEL is how you are going to complete this level, not FLAG.
Wish the difficulty curve was a bit smoother. I was having a good time with it but then I ended up in this boss fight with this alien mold thing that I just got tired of after dying a few dozen times.
Again, the fucking obvious goes right over my head. I dunno how I even made it this far
Baba can't be win.
Disregard me then, I am bad
Make sure to complete it twice with different win conditions.
Baba it is then, I don't have a whole lot of continuous time at the moment to dump into a game so that sounds perfect. I do plan on getting hollow knight at some point though.
>Empty Is You
Somebody explain.
Tiles without anything in them now respond to the arrow keys (left right up down).
Is there a third condition or something? Because I said I completed it the other way.
Can you control Baba in the Glitch level selection?
Yes. I did that first. Level is Sink and Baba is apparently not the intended way to do it, but that's how I did it.
Is this really worth 15 dollars? How long is it ? Bout to purchase.
15h-40h depending on your INT, assuming you don't give up in the 1st or 2nd area.
If you have the pollen and have Baba, then I guess you're done.
That's what I thought, but then how come in the level Babas Are You, Babas only spawn from certain empty spaces?
Isn't that level EMPTY MAKE BABA? Been a while since I played it.
Empty Is Baba, but yeah.
To get the achievement for clearing a level, do you need to complete all the levels inside or just enough to earn the flower?
didn't mean to quote
Dunno. Clear everything anyway because it's more fun that way.
You have to clear all levels inside, yes. Including extras.
