I also wish the game would have spent a bit more time explaining things.

"Guess the mechanic" is not a fun sort of puzzle.
So, yeah, I've been stuck on this game for a few years. There must be some mechanic I'm not getting, and the official walkthrough's "
figure it out for yourself, loser"
attitude did not provide much motivation to keep going.
I've recently decided to give it another go, and once again hit a wall at roughly the same point. There are parts of the game which to my understanding seem to be impossible. Not hard to pull off, not "
I don't see what to do here"
: not possible according to my understanding of how the game works.
Obviously then my understanding is incomplete or wrong, but knowing that alone doesn't really suggest any avenues.
I think my most immediate problem is not with the whole time control freakshow, but somehow related to jumping higher than is usually possible. I've figured out the trick that jumping off one of those lion-sphere-monsters provides a slightly higher "
ground level"
with no obvious jump height penalty; but some things are out of reach by more than one monster-height.
Any ideas on what to try, apart from giving up and either ignoring the game completely or watching somebody else do it on youtube?
