I might have picked up a hint or two about the purple cloud from that dog also. Amazing how little information I can take in sometimes!

I guess I'm the only one playing this now. I'm stuck in the first Reality Vortex. I got the 'core' that enables me to pick up the pink shards but I can't get back out of the room and I can't pick up the key because there is no bridge to it. HUH????
Kay

There is no key in the first Reality Vortex, you must be in the second one in the lava room. The only way to get the key is to collect all the reality fragments and place the core back in its place.

You can't leave the Vortex unless you look like Ed.

Hi Steve, I went back to 'ED' but still can't leave the vortex. I don't see an exit and I can't leave where I thought I came in.
Kay

There should be an exit portal just a few "blocks" to the right of where you picked up the core. This is really odd as I've never known objects to disappear like this.

Do you have a saved game just before you entered the Vortex?

I went back to the game and found the portal but I just can't get back to Ed before entering it. I have three arrows to work with but when I change back to Ed using the middle one then I have to go through the bottom arrow to get to the portal and that last one changes me back to a sheep again. My last save before that is at the Reactor and going back there is a bummer. Too many mines to pick up and put down while being shot at. I feel lucky to have gotten through there once. Any suggestions?
Kay

You have to use all three of the "changers" in order to get Ed back to Ed. If you only use two it doesn't work.

I'm trying to get back to the Reality Vortex to get the key, which I could not reach when there before. I need it to get the white key card. Is there any way to get more life force or whatever you call it? I keep getting blown out by the shooting thingies while going back.
Kay

If you're low on life you get additional life when you choose to continue.

Steve, I have the key from the Reality Vortex, the phone card and the work bench is powered up. Why can't I upgrade the Reality Enabler?
Kay

Do you have the upgrade part you need to upgrade the Enabler?

Where do I find the upgrade part?
K

There's a room in the factory with a teleport unit and a locker. The upgrade is in the locker.

Ok, I've made a lot of headway since last post. Now need to get another power cell to make displacer mine. The only ones I see are on the stopped conveyor. The robots have been de-celled, so no more there. I've been everywhere I can go and no power cells that I can get at. None in the store either. Also need one last pink shard for the Reality Vortex in the purple area. Also no where to be found. Any suggestions?
Kay

There should be more than enough power cells available. You may need to use a ground mine to destroy one of the robots you didn't take out with the EMP and get that power cell.
