Every Question I've Ever Had About To Pixelia

Things the game might have explained but I can't be sure because I accidentally pressed the E key

This FAQ is built from partial memories, trial and error, Ctrl+F, skipped dialogues, and one incident where I ran an errand and came back to discover the game does not pause during conversations.

Answers include a quick answer - for some answers, click Overexplained for step-by-step instructions and (sometimes) screenshots. Overexplanations might be useful in cases where there might be a bug, and you need to know what is supposed to happen, or how a mechanic is supposed to work?

Details may change if the game is updated, this was last modified: June 2025
