The checkpoints are not simple diamonds. They are Dim, flickering lanterns that cast a sickly orange glow. When you die—and you will die—the screen doesn’t just flash "Try Again." It fades to black with the text: "YOU DIED." A distant, mournful bell rings. You are resurrected not at the start of the level, but at the last lamp, with a faint echo of Insight whispering in your ears.
