1) We so much talked about plan. About boundaries. About that screen in Church (Layer 2) that shows part of room in every layer...
Someone thought that that strange capsule in right part of Layer 1 is Liz's escape pod....
But look again at screen when it shows Layer 1:

Why the hell it shows capsule? Is it part of Plan?
If no... So, in this case, it shows something, placed behind the capsule?

2)When we appears on the Bay (layer 1) at the beginning, we can already see two activated devices. Beamers? And if so, does anyone know, why we can't go to Layer 2 (If we don't activate beamer at th bottom of location)?

Edit: Also, I have just noticed that monitor doesn't show energy coil if we look at screen before picking up the coil...

I was just replaying Submachine 8 when I noticed this:

I didn't really understand the point of this picture when the game first came out, but now..
8 points. Was this a hint at there being 8 layers?

I think it shows the actual structure of the knot, i.e. How the Layers interview in the Temple location.

It could be possible that the points represent the puzzles, but one puzzle required you to be in 3 layers, and here, the points only form where 2 lines intersect.
Is this my final form?

Interesting and likely interpretation...

Wait, am I the only one who just noticed there was a typo in that note?

When I asked for [an] explanation he drew me this:
Balance is imperative; without it, total collapse and destruction is imminent.

Ah, okay, that makes more sense. 7 lines, one for each layer, points show where they intersect.

I wonder how many layer puzzles there were in the Temple..Were there actually 8, one for each point? *goes to check*

Well... I don't think it's technically incorrect, if you think of "explanation" not as a noun, but as the act of explaining.
Meet the new boss, same as the old boss, if the old boss had been an octahedron, which they weren't.
