    Important Game Mechanics

    Normal Formo Grabbing Objects: You can use your antennae to

    grab certain objects. If an object can be grabbed,

    the mouse pointer changes to a hand sign when it

    hovers over that object. By holding down the grab

    button, you can stay latched onto an object. When

    the grab button is released, you let go of the object.

    Grabbing certain objects can have some interesting

    effects, feel free to experiment!

    o Swinging: By moving right or left while suspended,you can swing. By pressing up or down, you can

    stretch or contract your antenna, lowering yourself

    from or pulling yourself to the grabbed object.

    Balloon Formo Flying:You can fly in Balloon Form by holding down

    the Fly Up button. When you are out of breath,you can no longer fly.

    o Breath: The amount of breath you have is indicatedby the yellow bar on your status display, as well as

    your size in Balloon Form (the less breath you have,

    the smaller you become). Your inhale air over time

    to replenish your breath.

    oBreaking your fall: If you are falling and wish toavoid taking damage, you can swap to Ballon Form

    just before landing to break your fall.

    like lava, spikes, etc can hurt you. Do your best to
