Secrets and collectibles
Checked 2026-10-18
The search is real. A fake pin list would waste your run. Here is the system the developer actually described, and the gap I am leaving open.
Devlog 4 is the sentence I keep returning to. Ordinary paperclips are the shop currency. Gold paperclips are hidden in secrets and spent on the upgrade tree. A Steam community note adds white boxes you draw with the pencil: they can pay out a heal or clips, and after about three erases the box breaks. I have not confirmed that erase limit in a match of my own, so it stays a community note.
What I will not pretend to know
I do not have coordinates for every gold clip. Achievement rates are not locations. Golden Fre...Buddy sitting at 0.00 percent in the global snapshot means almost nobody had it on 18 October 2026, not that I know the room.
The phrase open elsewhere shows up in search logs and I could not tie it to a control in the store text. I am leaving it unresolved instead of inventing a key.
Systems that touch secrets
- Gold clips: secrets only, upgrade tree. Source: devlog 4, 2 October 2025.
- Shop clips: heals, ammo, armor, weapons, skill point. Same devlog.
- Pencil drawings can remove a shield or a corpse in community writeups. See the pencil page.
- All-lore is its own hunt on the lore map.
Questions I keep getting
Where is every secret?
Not published here. I will add a pin only with a source.
Do supporter skins hide secrets?
The Supporter Pack is cosmetic legs. It does not say it adds clips.
