What each player can do here
- On a shared keyboard Bread anchors with S and grabs a wall by holding E; while anchored, Bread cannot be dragged around by Fred's moves.
- Fred has the same moves on the second set of keys: arrow Down to anchor, right Ctrl held to grab a wall.
If your skill levels differ: If the climb gets too punishing, the assist options (Pull rope, Checkpoints, Better grab, Infinite jumps) are there to use; the developer says there is no shame in it.Our suggestionThe player steadier with timing takes the swings and jumps while the other anchors. How to split the roles
Mission: the lost seal
Part 1 of 1. Bring the seal back to the penguin who rides the mine carts.
- BothPick up the seal and carry it to the penguin riding one of the moving mine carts to finish the Fishy Mines mission (Lost Soul).
Where people tend to fall
- One guide (the developer's blog) gives the spots: the seal, Gertrude, is on the right of the mines at about 183 m, introduced by the penguin Robert, and the cart rider is on the right at about 120 m.
- Moving platforms are the first new hazard on the way up; every jump onto one needs good timing.
Extras and notes
- Photo 4 sits at the bottom left, lower than photo 3, but you can only reach it once you have made it to Fishy Mines.
- Photo 5 is in a secret area off the left edge of the Fishy Mines map; cling to the wall there to open it.
- Single-player only: Greg's Diver skin is hidden in Fishy Mines.
