Notes:
Puzzles now being "mutually compatible" means they have been slightly adjusted to make them compatible with each other regardless of which of them happen to spawn in. In simple terms, if a matchbox and a hidden cube used to overlap each other in some corner, one of them is now very slightly moved to the side so that both are solvable.
The changes we've done are as minimal as possible and designed to be unnoticeable. There's no meaningful impact to puzzle difficulty from this. Some wandering echoes might still travel through other puzzles or dip partially into them. But everything in the first two hub zones can be solved without any issues now. Flow Orb courses are 100% untouched since people actually speedrun them.
