Description
The Abyss requires collecting 2 hearts to open a gate before Layer 7. It begins on Pluto's surface as a cube; on the right side is a lake of water, and below it is the entrance to 'The Abyss'. After jumping into the lake, the screen turns blue.
Layer 1 – The Ruins
This layer features the first needle mini-robot gameplay of the level. Layer 1 has four checkpoints in total.
The first checkpoint is focused entirely on robot precision gameplay, with no orbs or portals on the main path.
The second checkpoint has gameplay similar to the previous one; however, it is considered the hardest checkpoint of Layer 1 because of the last dropdown and the section at the beginning with sawblades on the top and ceiling.
Layer 2 – The Great Pit
As the name suggests, the entire layer requires descending a steep drop. It is considered one of the easiest layers of The Abyss, featuring four checkpoints.
After beating the fourth and last checkpoint of Layer 2, there is a rock before going into the next screen with the following text:
A gate lies guarding the entrance to the 7th layer. Two hidden hearts will be open the barrier Seek them before decending the 6th layer
Layer 3 – The Sunken City
This layer has two checkpoints.
The first checkpoint features the first moving hazards, with multiple moving sawblades throughout. The last jump is a very tight drop with walls lined with sawblades, requiring a mid-air movement before hitting the floor to avoid dying.
The second checkpoint features straightforward mini-robot gameplay, except for a stream of bubbles that push the player upwards as they weave through spikes in a vertical corridor.
The first heart of the level is located in Layer 3, at the base of the tower that can be found to the right of the drop that leads to Layer 4.
Layer 4 – Thermal Vents
Layer 4 only has one checkpoint.
User coins
The Abyss has three user coins.
The first coin requires reaching the hidden jetpack portal at the bottom-right of the first checkpoint in Layer 1.
Lore
After the second checkpoint of Layer 3, there is an open room with a big statue in the centre, with text reading the following:
At the bottom of our great fault, our salvation awaits. All will be one, we will find our peace. A mind shared, a world freed. We will escape our mortal bounds.
Halfway through the robot checkpoint of Layer 5, there is a hidden passage on the right wall, where an abyss angel can be found with the following dialogue:
- Another comes?
- I know of kind like you
- you are not born of the abyss, yet your roots are firmly planted here
- the lower we descend the more our souls reject the beyond
- should i descend further, my soul will reject my being even moreso.
- but you- you void those flaws. your descent will be effortless
- but me? I will remain here. nothing remains to return to.
- us abyss angels live for ages. our only downfall was our own ambition
- leave now, construct your purpose awaits.
