Regarding "Two currents advance in parallel through alternating positions."

The hint itself is saying two separate patterns are running simultaneously. For example, using numbers, pattern 1 might start as

1, 3, 5, 7

While pattern two, using letters for distinction, might be:

A,C,E,G

When combined, the pattern would result in

1, A, 3, C, 5, E, 7, G

To guess the next solution, find the next answer in the first pattern, then switch to the other pattern and solve for its next solution. For this example, that would mean the following is the correct solution

9, I

Hope this helps ^-^

Sure! And I have now done so. Would you like me to retype the bug in the Discord chat?

Really enjoy the game so far! The cursor dash feels very snappy, and hitting Vampirism combos by chainkilling the Dashers feels very fun! Additionally, I love the sound design! It sounds very crisp, for lack of a better word.

Unfortunately, I did find a bug that completely prevents progression and forces the player to delete all of their progress. If you manage to die at the exact same time as you kill the TimeKeeper, the game will proceed as usual, showing the dialogue box. As expected, the game kills you upon finishing the dialogue box. However, when you restart the fight, none of the inputs work, and the TimeKeeper never starts attacking. The only buttons that work in this state are Escape and Pause. Additionally, if you pause and unpause while the game is like this, the blue orbs will infinitely spawn!

Also, I'm unsure if this is a consequence of the bug or not, but restarting progress via "Reset Run" or "Reset Everything" prevents any progression on starting a new file. Instead, when the player presses play, the game starts like normal, but no blue orbs or Dashers spawn. Additionally, no upgrades appear on the skill tree.

Don't let the above criticism get you down, I've truly enjoyed playing this game! It's quite fun, and I wish you luck as you develop it further!
