If ripples like water if you get near it. Just jump in the water.

>>334840673
It ripples when you get near it, creating curiosity. Also, there's only so much to do before you start trying to jump into walls. I miss this era of vidya when there wasn't a formula to every game and you were encouraged to run around trying random shit.

Little known fact is that you don't actually need the A-button to jump. You can also 'dive' with the B-button after running. Such that you can enter the painting without pressing the A-button.

This. Games should allow room for curiosity and discovery. Tutorials should be minimal and seamlessly integrated into the level design itself.

Kids weren't instant gratification drones back then, and they would actually try the fucking game themselves, I know the NPC tells you what to do, but I didn't know english when I was a kid yet you would jump on things and figure it all out yourself.
