Gameplay
Attempt to press floating buttons to gain access to new areas of the gauntlet and complete the diamond located in the main chamber. Once the diamond is complete head towards the chamber where you started and see what happens

Summer Gauntlet auto-saves after passing an inactive checkpoint. A floppy disk icon displays whilst your game is saving. NOTE: Playing on hard mode, your lives are recorded in real time so no reloading if you really messed something up!
