I love trying to figure out what weird symbols do, but I got as far as the “lightning bolt” symbol without really grasping how the combinations of the previous ones worked. (or how I got past the thing at the very start of the game)
Also, the “squiggle”/tether in particular seemed to pretty easily get me stuck in a wall or rapidly vibrating or something. One thing that might help there would be a button or something to cancel all active spells, even ones that aren’t on screen.
