Get unstuck without risking your save
Start with reversible checks. Pages that still need direct game evidence say so clearly.
Dash not working
Separate an input issue from an unlock or movement-mode issue.
Directional dash or double jump changed
Check the Omni-dash toggle introduced by the official hotfix.
Progress or Watts disappeared
Preserve saves and logs before attempting a recovery.
Find and back up your save
Prepare for a safe copy without guessing an unverified path.
Controller not working
Run a clean device, Steam Input, and binding checklist.
Progression decisions
Spend around the real bottleneck
Official sources confirm the loop—not every node, cost, or optimal order. Unverified details remain unpublished.

Rare achievement troubleshooter
Protect the evidence before you repeat the grind
IGTAP includes 29 Steam achievements. Hotfix 3 changed secret counting and expanded save logs, so preserve your files before retrying a condition that appears complete.
