Mastering the Mechanics

Before diving into the level-by-level solutions, let's cover the core gameplay mechanics. Death isn't possible; even falling objects are harmless. The practice room is crucial for familiarizing yourself with object manipulation. The key is perspective: releasing an object closer to the floor or wall makes it smaller; releasing it further away makes it larger. Repeatedly adjusting your viewpoint allows for significant size changes. Objects can also materialize by aligning them within your field of vision.
