The player needs to figure out what key needs to be created to unlock the portal

Different ink vials are scattered around the level

Synthesizing the dye will 3D-print a colored key, the whole process is straight-forward and easy to use

• Pick-up the dye

• Drop it in front of the synthesizer

• Activate the 3D-printer

• Pick-up the key and try it out

Wrong combinations are possible and will play an "error" sound cue while dropping the correct key will activate the portal

Using the same logic, puzzles get slightly harder

Using different color dyes, the player needs to "mix" some of them to create different colors

• In the example above, the player needs to find a way to reach the yellow dye and mix it with a red dye to create an "orange" key (since no orange dye exists in the level)

This slight buildup was hitting just the right challenge and enticement during playtests as players explored the level to find the correct dye to proceed further

The last challenge was a curveball as all the dyes were needed to create the color "black" and open a black-hole portal
