The true challenge is making it from one side to the other without falling into the endless abyss as the blocks fall. After taking the power from the crystals at the far end of the chamber, the floating blocks loose their power and start to fall. Getting to the far side isn't the difficult part. And worst of all, in order to progress past the first room, you have to travel from one side of the room to the other in a chamber filled with floating blocks. There is ice everywhere, making movement more precarious. Here, the surfaces it'll stick to are extremely limited. In the other areas the energy grapple from the glove would stick to almost any surface. You have all the gear in the game, have said your goodbyes to the frog people, and have entered the ice mountain in search of your uncle, the true test of what you learned before that moment happens. Whatever puzzle up to this point was only training you for the real test: diving your way into the depths of this icy nightmare of a cavern. The challenges are more extreme and less forgiving. You are in an ice mountain, where everything is harsh.

This is the main item you will use in this game. With that power up you can send out an energy beam to grab the islands and the ground, drawing you toward or with whatever you grabbed. Not far into the cave you find a crystal that powers your glove up just a little. It's a fun mechanic that saves a lot of effort with some of the more difficult parts of the game. Some islands have little glyphs on the ground which are little 'save points' so that if you fail a jump and 'die' in the water or fall into oblivion, you have islands where you respawn. After a little while it's really fun to find shortcuts, to skip an island or two, and to see how far you can soar before having to touch the ground.

It is an amazing sensation to fly through the air. It allows for higher and longer jumps, depending on whether you are running or walking. Learning to jump from island to island is quite a blast! At this point you have an added ability: a charged / super jump. Some islands are floating in air, some are floating, orbiting others. When you land you see a beautiful place, a cavern with bridges from island to island.
