I managed to get as far as discovering I needed to do a substitution cipher from map data. Even peeking at the innards, I'm not sure what I should do.

#

This is clearly a big brain level puzzler.

||Did you figure out how to get the spectral lantern?||

topaz robin
#

Yes, although by peeking. And from there, deciphering the message is easy enough.

Even grabbed the other item, which I suspect is needed, but I'm stuck there.

#

Btw, I think it was cooling using the map the way you did.

ancient rock
#

Thanks! I definitely feel like there are some parts of the puzzle that I could make clearer

#

Hint for what to do next: ||Have you tried using the feather to push the top-right minecart away from the wall?||

topaz robin
#

No, I haven't. Figured those had something to do with it, but didn't see anything that worked.

Another hint: ||Did you know that you can jump with the feather while riding a minecart?||

#

Just updated the level, hopefully this makes some things a little bit more clear

I managed some ||pushing the sign up|| but ||cart gets stuck the third time, and still can't get past||
Also ||tried the top wall|| to no effect, and just for kicks ||navigated to the graveyard||

||Could you send a clip of what you're trying to do?||

topaz robin
#

Not sure how to video, but I can send a snapshot of results when I try it again.

Go to Steam > Settings > Game Recording and select "Record Manually"

Here's three of the results.

||Pushing the sign was not intended, but navigating to the graveyard was||

#

Well I can get the upper one out the door, but nowhere from there.

||Did you read the tombstones?||

||My first attempt at the dungeon also went as far as the map before I got stuck. The only thing on the map that seemed to be a solvable puzzle was the substitution cipher, although I still have no clue how you're supposed to apply the decoded cipher (other than the graveyard being related). I did attempt to look for an image out of the green dots on the multiple floors, thinking it was a layering puzzle, but that ended up being a waste of time.||

||Looking at the dungeon in the editor, though (the original version), I see the solutions for the brazier and pressure plate combinations, but have no clue how you're supposed to come to those conclusions.||

EDIT: ||Okay, the new map data makes the brazier solution clearer. Still looking at the rest.||
