I think I'm overthinking Ruins-10, "Further Fields." All of my ideas keep coming back to needing to set up KEKE IS PUSH so that one of the Babas pushes Keke onto the other side of the grass while KEKE isn't YOU, and then have another one of the Babas cause KEKE to be YOU again. But that's so fiddly to set up that I'm not sure it's even possible.

According to steam discussions that is the correct method, but the thread doesn't actually say how to set it up and I can't figure out how either...

When you push an [is] between them?? that's the whole point of the game

But then BABA isn't YOU so you're out of luck. unless BABA is YOU and YAGA?

Oh god what did I just post?
I remember seeing the game jam version of this game while watching the GDQ mystery tournament. Out of all the games that were raced this was by far the most memorable. Baba is You has come a ways since then but it' was amazing to watch the commentators have there minds blown as they realise what going on. Link to VoD for those interested.

TINY ISLAND is HARD

FORUM is HELP

One thing that does gently caress me up in this game is that there's no upgrades later on or anything so even if an extra level is harder than the normal levels around it I know it's possible so I can't move on til it's done

Are there any timed + death states in this game, or are you just free to fail at your own pace?

Some levels have a spot where you might be timed to do something or fail, but you can always undo moves as many times as you like. There's nothing that goes without you making a move.

This was the answer. BUG and BELT propelled each other, which I used to slowly move to the bottom right while I ran past the fungus.

Here are a few:

You only need to destroy one square of water to free the WIN block.

YOU can OPEN something SHUT, but usually that will make you lose.

Unless YOU are two things at once...

How do I get over the critical shortage of ISes and ANDs though?

e: wait I have an idea

e2: idea successful. Now I have to deal with another layer of this in Tiny Island!

Stuck on The Prison

I can't figure out how to go out of the wall or become the wall and stay You so my only guess is that somehow I have to rig it so that Keke becomes a wall right while on the same tile as me and touching another wall, and that will let me walk the wall.

Am I on the right track? Will take gentle shoves in the right direction.

Whoops sorry.

Can you explain the logic of that solution?

What makes the overlap happen? Is it the case that in immoveable wall vs unbreakable object it will force it to overlap? I don't understand how the default text rules vary from just Text is Push.

I don't see anything that says BABA is STOP in that level. Baba can't move in that direction, but something is pushed onto him.

there was one level where my solution involved making BABA (it might have been a level where you're keke, actually) HAS BOX but also BOX IS BABA, which meant dying created a box which instantly turned into another baba, and using that to bridge a river

Edit: Solved it, but I still don't know what NOT WEAK does.

As near as I can tell, [NOUN] IS NOT [ADJECTIVE] has a similar effect to making you unable to transform things with [NOUN A] IS [NOUN B], when elsewhere on the level [NOUN A] IS [NOUN A] exists: if you try to make a [NOUN] IS [ADJECTIVE] statement when the corresponding [NOUN] IS NOT [ADJECTIVE] statement already exists, it won't work and the noun won't gain the adjective.
