Still Life Hints
I can't even get past the second set of laser beams!
1 of 13: After getting through the first two swinging beams, there is a "safe square" where the mini-robot can rest, while you examine your options.
2 of 13: You cannot continue forward, because of the laser beam swinging in an ellipse on the floor.
3 of 13: Lateral movement is the only option here.
4 of 13: And since we cannot see anything to our left (the mini-robot's right), it'd be best to turn it to the left.
5 of 13: Face the mini-robot to the wall, and take two steps forward. It should now be standing at the base of the wall.
6 of 13: You still can't make any progress toward the rear of the room...
7 of 13: ... but remember, these little guys can climb walls!
8 of 13: Move one click forward, and the mini-robot will climb onto the base of the wall...
9 of 13: ... and the view will change to show -- holy cow, there are even MORE laser beams!
10 of 13: The bad news is that you still can't see them all.
11 of 13: The good news is that you can now see, from this new perspective, some of the control panels at the rear of the room.
12 of 13: The other bad news is that the control panel we need to reach is to the *right* of the door!
13 of 13: Continue to navigate the mini-robot around the room, moving toward that doorway.
