Hi Doreen,
Yes, the game will play a tinkly melody when the puzzle is solved.
You'll hear a soft click as each feather slots into its correct position.
Good luck for when you get back to it. It had me cross-eyed too!

Yes, this puzzle is an hard one for bad eyes ! And it seems that it is a hard puzzle (too big ?) for Flash too (like the one with tubes in the Dwarves world). Because, when you're sure everything is correct, you have sometimes to touch few feathers (or few tubes) to activate the success music.

I decided to try it without the solution picture Oh yessss ! Mika (who made the walkthrough) has to make a picture with just a feather out of its emplacement. Because when all feathers are in place, oups, the puzzle close too quickly to make a screen print. And we noticed that too late, the walkthrough was yet online (all the other solutions are complete). I would have understood that you play with the walkthrough, Dorish, and then inform you about this feather

Hi dorish  It might be of some help (certainly to me, anyway) if you can remember and tell which two feathers are different !!  On my first play of the game, I lost my saved games suddenly when I was halfway through my 2nd world and so had to start over and ON that first play, I had solved the feather puzzle without a lot of difficulty .  However this time round I am very stuck, even though I printed off a picture of the completed puzzle - from the walkthrough  I HAVE placed all the feathers more than once but obviously NOT in the right places as I'm not able to move on Been at it for hours, now ....  Cheers. Mad

Hi Mad, You might need to take the puzzle apart and start over. It sounds as though one or more of the feathers didn't slot into place completely (you'll hear a little "thunk" when they do) - but unfortunately there's no way of telling which one without trying all of them.

Hi Rushes  I've taken the picture apart and started it from scratch at least nine times today  [And I am getting the little "thunks" all the time.] I think I'll reluctantly have to move on to something else for a while before my sanity goes completely !!  Cheers. Mad

Hi - and thanks, dorish and Rushes  I'll take another look then  I don't know why you don't hear the "thunks" though, dorish. I heard them every time I (apparently, or so I thought  ) got a feather in the right place !! Maybe I'd do better to turn the sound off then and try it without hearing any thunks  I'll let you know how I go on. EDIT :Your tip worked, dorish !! Thank you so much !! Rushes ....I have made a save immediately after solving the puzzle. Should I send it to you - or is this one of those games where saves can't be transferred ?? EDIT 2 :Does anyone know if the order in which one visits the world, matters ?? Cheers. Mad

Mad - that's great!  I think this game has a save system similar to Machinarium, where the saves are in an unusual place and all in one large save file that can't be separated out. I'll look into it. It makes no difference in which order you visit the worlds. If you can't find any evidence of Petro having been in the world you're currently in, you can try another world and return later.

Hello Dorish ! I saw your post asking me to tell about the feathers puzzle image, but I was not able to make a reply yesterday. Why don't you post about that yourself, Dorish ? There is no problem at all  I explain why there are one (two ?) feather not in the right place, but when we noticed that, it was too late. And, for me, the picture in the walkthrough must be just an indication of what you must obtain, not an absolute guide. Where is the pleasure of doing a puzzle with an eye on the puzzle and the other one on the walkthrough ?  Nevermind, I will send to Chief the model of this puzzle. He will put it in the best place  Edit 1 : The saves are cookies. Their localisation is explained on our website (too technical for me). The problem is, with a non linear game... are you sure your save will be the right one for an other player ?
