look, a candy!

[maniac]

[Beezqp]

haven't I made it clear enough?

[Tynka]

it was not clear for sure but i am an overthinker...

so my advice - don't think in this level

[maniac]

Is the answer a valid English word or phrase?

[Beezqp]

I have no satisfying answer to that question.

[maniac]

I made that statement because I used the old location.
but now it should be obvious.

On part 3 now. *What was obvious in 1st and 2nd part* is absent in 3rd part. I can find it in another pic but is that pic for 4th part?

[Beezqp]

Well, now is the part when you need start thinking again

[maniac]

solved

My clue: Your handwriting's too bad, Beezqp

[Rubix]

Weeellppp...

"Not thinking" leads to one very obvious approach... and it doesn't work. XD

EDIT: Nevermind, it does work. The handwriting is a little misleading sometimes.

EDIT: Part 2, actually straightforward!

EDIT: I think I've solved a big clue of Part 3 but not sure how to use it yet...

EDIT: Also straightforward in the end, although you have to notice something. Onto 76!

Hint for all sections of this level: KISS

[Muzozavr]

First part done (thanks, someguy), completely ridiculous and stupid. Don't be afraid of gibberish.

Part two. Tried the same exact ridiculous approach, didn't work. I may have misread, but the fact that there are now two blocks makes me think it's a bit more complicated now, with some twist.

EDIT: Part two done. Simple, though the handwriting is a bit misleading. HINT: combining the two boxes together will not work, trust me.

Third part now. Two pages. Both are confusing as heck...

[someguy]

this level is absolutely ridiculous...

been on the final part (two screens) for forever. any hints, please?

[Muzozavr]

Agreed. Since the correct answer is probably gibberish (like it was the previous two times), there's no way to mentally check whether it makes sense, so it's kind of just trial and error now.

[Beezqp]

At the last part, you are supposed to look at things differently.

...

Any actual hint? Like, what are we even supposed to be changing here to make it work? The method of extracting letters and other symbols from the picture? A complete re-interpretation of what the instructions mean? A shift in a visual "point of view"? Something else entirely? How important is the source code, anyway -- just for flavor or extremely vital?

This is why "gibberish answers" are so nasty -- it's difficult enough when you're barking up the wrong tree, but in this level you can't even mentally check if it's even a tree in the first place.

[Beezqp]

Nah, gibby jibby was boring on the second stage already.
It may help if you use a pencil.
And remember that there are two parts three.

[Muzozavr]

Quote:

Sincerely hoping that's just a typo on the last word and not something extremely complicated within the level. It should be "there" instead of "three", right?

So if it's really not gibberish now... that's actually REALLY good new info, I guess. Thanks!

[Beezqp]

i mean, you are on part three, and there are two of them. it is you who confused me.

[Muzozavr]

Oh, yeah, yeah, I didn't realize how to read your sentence properly. Yes, we do have both "parts three". I currently have very little time to devote to this, but, eventually, I will.

[someguy]

gaah.. this third part is so ridiculous.

any other hints for this section?, i feel like im overlooking something here, and whatever the hell Y and B may be...

[Beezqp]

you overthink this one.

[someguy]

I can't believe it was that easy.... loving the music in 76 :b

[Muzozavr]

Indeed... thanks to someguy's help.

Hint for others: even if what you're doing looks like nonsense, take your time to draw it. This helps on all three parts, but *especially* on the third.

[lla26]

Yeah, the third part is a bit different from the first two parts, making it a bit of an overthinker’s trap. Got this one with an early hint from someguy while I was still doing the sing part of 73.

“Beyond The Rim” Hint Circle: 75
Just follow the instructions...
...And again and again...
...Then, different this time...
...And finally, reunite the paths...

[puzzle]

Cool! Got it. But my eyes hurt because of tracing previous paths.
Love to necroing these like my solving is yesterday news

edit: part C trace and stare

[VisD]

Anyone still alive...?

Pretty sure I made it past part B before but cna't get through now

Would like to confirm the letters I have with someone - not sure if I'm recognizing letters wrongly or what - some ambiguous characters...tried all the possible variations (u/v 0/o) in permutations but no dice
