Apparently I'm a big idiot and completely forgot to replace those crystals with an alternative one that doesn't block your patch.
Sorry about the inconvenience. A quick patch is coming right away!
Edit: It's out!
No, no, no, don't worry. Your reports are actually extremely useful. I sadly couldn't iron out everything in the end because I was in a hurry to get this out there for people to play.
I will include this fix in the current patch, just so I don't flood the page with patches lol
If you do end up finding more bugs, please do not be afraid of reporting them here.
Edit: Redownload the patch. It should be fixed now. I'm pretty sure this should be the last issue now.
Head back to the entrance of the fountains. The central area should be open now.
edit: Oh, WAIT, NO. I'M AN IDIOT (big surprise there). The padalo still takes you to the path of the puzzle once you've solved it
Edit 2: Yep. Another fix on the list.
By the way, word of advice: the recommended level to for the first boss fight is 6+
Just wanted to point that out there
That's the, uh, thing that's been fixed now.
It's not a pathing issue or something, it's just that the there was no flag to make the padalo spawn at a different location after the flesh maze puzzle.
It's regrettable for me to say that another download is required to, uh, apply this fix. Super sorry about that.
