I got 16 of 18 then kept falling out of the one "doorway" that leads to a abyss. Definitely should expand on the idea, it gives DRG vibes and i think its an amazing concept. Great job Devs!!

Thank you so much! 

We've uploaded a new build with that final "doorway" fixed so that you can't fall through it now hahah!

Thanks for playing, and great job finding 16 / 18 pearls! 🙌
