Super Squidlit: All Notes and Buttons Location (Steam Version)

Hello, welcome to my first ever guide. In here, you will find details on there you find all the buttons and notes in the game. At the time of this writing, there are a few that have not been found, either due to a bug causing them to go missing or they simply haven’t been located. If they are found, this guide will be updated.

The guide is divided by each level. The areas listed by name are a notable landmark in the game. Anything simply listed “area” is a basic platforming section where you have to go from one door to another.

There are a few terms used in the game and a few skills you might need:

Air hover: This is the act of inking over and over again to try to keep your vertical position while going left or right.

Roll climb: Rolling against a wall over and over again, moving you vertically up higher with each roll.

“Closet”: In the FPS sections, this is the small available space possible.The walls are as close as you will ever see two opposite side walls, and the back of it is pretty shallow. Most of these hold false backs that will go up if entered.

NOTE: Most of this guide was written when the Switch version was the only available one. Differences will be indicated and changed as they are discovered. Pictures may be added to the guide as I play through the PC version, as this is still a bit of a work in progress.

Town area
Button: First button in the game and it might be the most well hidden one. Find Bnurpy the Mushroom Squidlit in town. When you press down, one of his eyes will move towards the other eye. You can then press the jump button to control the other eye and dodge the collision. Make one eye jump over the other one three times in one go, and a button will appear out of Bnurpy

Area 2
Button: path above a snail. Must dodge a slug to get it. Just off screen after that.Slightly to the right.
Note (Ooblugs): First stone wall. Must jump left from the area the slug was on for the button. Air hover to get to it.

Area 4
Note (Sky Shield): After breaking the first barrier, you find a breakable (brown block). Go down, follow that path.
Button: Above the breakable brown block mentioned for the previous note.

Area 5
Button: When you have a path leading downwards (after passing 2 ladybugs), you should see a barrier on the left side. Smash that instead.

Pub/Dock area
Button: Located on the roof of the pub.
Button: Go all the way to the left of the area. Dock will end, you can jump in the water. Button is in the water, slightly right.

Lift area:
Note (Squishu): After the lift operator, there is a hole in the ground. Go down and head left.
Button: Located a few platforms above the lift operator.

Area 1
Button: After 3 pinecones, there is a small tunnel with an enemy walking in it. Roll against the wall to climb up and over instead.

Area 2
Button: Near the end of the area there is a floating block just before a pinecone drop. Get on top of it, then ink hover to the right. Roll climb up the cliff (this will be above the exit door). The button is there on top.

Area 3
Button: In the section with all the breakable brown blocks, there is one hidden in a block on the far left side.
Note (Squishu’s Riing): In the same section as the button, there is one hidden in a block on the far right side.

Area 5
Button: After going down the hole, you will pass by a save space and see an opening upwards. Climb up the opening and you should see the button.

Hotbath area
Note (Mana): After the save space, climb up above the opening to the cave.

FPS Area 3
Button: Go to the left from the start. You will fight 3(?) flatworm ghosts while going down a corridor. The end of the corridor looks like a dead end, but if you go into the small space (should be on your right) a hidden door will open to reveal a button.

FPS area 4
Button: There’s an intersection where you can go all 4 directions. Go left from the the way you were facing at the start (you should fight a flatworm ghost and icicle enemy). Behind the enemies you should find a “closet space” with a fake wall leading to a button.

Hotbath area (melted)
Button: Ink a few times in the hotbath (the colour should change) and then speak to the ooblug in green next to it. He will give you a button for making the bath into saltwater.

Area 1
Button: After a little tunnel with an enemy at the start, you’ll see some stairs up and to the right. Climb up them and bounce on the mushroom you see. Button is to the left.
Button: After fighting a spore spitting mushroom after getting the last button, bounce on the blue mushroom under it. Roll against the wall to the right to climb up.

Area 2
Button: You can see it if you jump right at the start. Keep walking until you find a “triangle” of platforms and stand on the top one. A dragonfly will come and you can right the dragonfly.
Note (Eneri): Around the ⅔ part of the level, there’s a door to the right of a little hole (you can’t miss it, you have to go over it to end the level). Do in the door and hop up the dragonflies to find the note at the top. If you fail, you can try again by exiting the door and going back in.

Area 3
Button: If you follow the top path, you’ll find a door on a platform. Enter it. As you go down this subsection, you’ll find the button on the right.
Button: After the door to the last button, go down the next hole. You will see the button in there.
Note (Chicken): Heads up, you’ll need to follow the lower path for this. Anyways, when you find the end of the level, back track on the higher path. After you pass a redcap enemy, a dragonfly should come from the right (if not, reset the level, this is the lower path issue I mentioned). Hop on it and ride it to the end, you’ll see the note on a platform above the level end door.

Area 4
Note (Loshia): Following the top path, you’ll see a door in a corridor. Go through and climb up. The last jump requires you to ram against the smaller stump, ink to get between the gap and roll to keep moving upwards (this is the hardest one to get so far).
Button: After exiting the door for the previous note, perform a roll climb up the left side of the tree that it was in.

Area 5
Button: While climbing inside the first tree, you’ll see a path going to the left. Ignore it, climb up the wall to the right by rolling against it. Button will be at the top to the left.

FPS area 2
Button: near the end of the level, on a left hand side wall from your starting position (on your right if you backtrack from the end), there is a little “closet” area with a secret wall.

FPS Area 3
Button: Follow the left wall from the start. You should find a “closet” space with a fake wall pretty quickly.

FPS Area 5
(According to the developer, there should be a button in this section that is not showing up. Will be patched in.)

(Despite being told there are 8 buttons in the platforming section by the developper, I have not been able to find them all.)

Area 1
Button: At the cave platform just after the first tree, turn left. Jump, ink twice, then you should be able to roll against a ledge to climb up it. OR after the zig zag section in the cave, fall of the first cliff, then jump to your left. Button on the left of the ledge.

Area 2
Note (Tomes) :After the 4th hoppy enemy, you’ll see stones shapes like stairs above you. Roll into them to climb, note is at the top.
Button: After getting the Note, fall in the first hole on your path forward. The button will be on your right if you continue after that.

FPS Area 3
Button: Follow the left wall. You will see a small “closet” area behind a pillar.

FPS Area 5
(According to the developer, there should be a button in this section that is not showing up. Will be patched in.)

Button: On the right wall in the area where you meet your first enemies, there is a “closet” space with a false wall.

Area 6
Button: You should see it above you as you start down a tunnel that starts with 2 blue bugs walking back and forth. When you get to the door at the end of the area, turn back and take the higher path.

Area 7
Button: Above the first enemy, there is a door. Roll into the wall and press up to enter door. Button will be visible right away. Follow the path and when you can drop down, head left.
Note (Relk): After getting the button just mentioned, take the highest path to the right. You will need to drop down and head left in a small tunnel space.
Button: After returning to the main area, you will see a book above you in a shaft. Let it fall. Roll against the wall of the shaft to climb up. Button is at the top.
Note (Grimwar): After a zig zag section, you’ll find a caterpillar enemy. Kill it, and use the book cover it was throwing to hold down the red button (you can roll into the book cover to move it into place).

Area 8
Note (Cliodhna): After you see the first muffin of the level and you start going left, there are some breakable brown blocks. Climb them, and you will find a save spot, a squidlit and the note to the right.

Area 9

Button: Located to the right of the word jelly note.

Area 2
Button: Follow the lower path. After a claw enemy on the ceiling, there is a path below you that goes slightly left.
Note (Garbage Theory): Go back to the starting area, and take the higher path. You’ll see a section where you can jump out of the water. Follow this section to the end.

Conelit Town
Button: Follow the walls on the left side. Small upward shaft leads to a button.
Button: Exit water towards the left at the top of the town. Conelit will offer you a button for completing a mini-game. (Also one of the hardest buttons in game.) Advice is to start to the right and remember you can fall faster by pressing down and jump. Otherwise, just practice. Can re-attempt any number of times.

Area 4 (Coconut mission)
Button: In the second pool of water in this section, sink to the bottom of the far left side.
Note (Squidlits): After collecting the coconut, keep going to the right.
