Rain World: Downpour - Heartbreak Secret

A video of the Heartbreak secret on Saint in the new Rain World DLC. Major spoilers.
How it works:
Step 1: Wireframe Summoning
In order to begin the secret, you'll need to go to R_16 in Rubicon as Saint with a maximum karma of 10, then head right and up until you reach LAYERS_OF_REALITY.
Once there, you should notice the Zuish numbers at the bottom, which are in the same order as the Tome pages from Fez, and which was used in a deconfirmed answer to the Monolith puzzle.
Reordering the digits of Rain World's release date in the same way as this post did (gaming.stackexchange.com/a/12..., we get the sequence 3021872.
Translating this to Zuish and rotating the text 90 degrees to the right gets us the sequence down, any, any of up left right, right, down, ascension, left, which we can treat as screen directions, or using an ascension in the case of 0.
Step 2: Fez Heartbreak Check
In order for anything to happen after you do that series of inputs though, you must have a Fez save that has completed heartbreak "ending", which if you haven't played means doing absolutely everything.
If this requirement is met, instead of being met with a wireframe of the heart, you'll instead get the full filled in thing descending from above.
You could of course download a save from online for this, but please don't. This is really special, and if you're going to buy Fez for this, play it first! The heart will still be there after you're done.
Step 3: Heartbreak
Ascending the heart will cause a restart of Saint as normal, with the exception of the main Slugcat page - you can start a new game here, despite having the echo ending.
Trying to do the heartbreak ending on the same file won't work, you get this once and then that's it. Spend it wisely.

did you know that the people who made the music for rain world also did a track on that fez remix album ages ago? everything's connected

[@goldian5246]

they did??? i can't find it on either of the remix albums

[@ekisacik]

@@goldian5246 they're stylized slightly differently - as BR1GHT PR1MATE

[@ekisacik]

lydia marsala and lydia esrig are the same person according to vgmdb

[@saadahtsham7]

and C418 also worked on a remix of a FEZ song for one his albums. He remixed "Compass" from the FEZ OST, and released it as "Kompass" in his album "148"

[@SpoopyChicken]

So to reiterate: This easter egg basically flexes the fact that you have a Fez savefile on your PC with a 100% complete Fez game.

[@animarthur5297]

Is 100%-ing Fez really that hard? Never played it

[@didntmeantokillemtwasaaccident]

​​@@animarthur5297to my knowledge Fez is a really hard puzzle game, if you're going in blind without any outside help you might even miss out like half of the entire game without even knowing it

[@Beckett.]

re-ITERATE

[@hercar20xx5]

@@didntmeantokillemtwasaaccident without help you basically cant beat it as one of the red cube collectables you need for 100% is the monolith puzzle (in which this room is in reference to) and after over 12 whole years of searching have still not found the correct solution and have only managed to do it by brute force so yeah doing a blind 100% of fez is basically impossible

[@Rand0_GUY]

An indie game with an Easter egg of another indie game...
RESPECT

[@isaacuy5510]

I was wondering what this room was for! I found it in my casual playthrough and couldn't figure out why there was a secret room with nothing in it

[@MaxwellCatAlphonk]

This is Saint finally escaping the infinite cycle of her own and finally being able to system reinstall the entire world

[@julieradcliffe9486]

Finally fulfilled their goal.
They ascended everything.

[@Mike14264]

...huh. Been a while ever since I last saw that heart...

[@NO122221]

yeah. and it's still unsolved

[@simonfrancorodriguez5571]

All 64 cubes.
2 artifacts.
3 heart pieces.
Spin the artifacts in a order and be one of the witnesses.

[@rcmastergamer1800]

Now that you can bring the FEZ heart into Rain World, another indie game should do a puzzle with elements from those two games and so on and so forth like a chain. You need 100% on the other games before you can solve the puzzle each time.

[@yayco123]

I almost 100% fe back in the day.... With a guide obviously. The only thing I missed was the puzzle that you had to do in an specific date at an specific time

Excuse me there’s a FEZ EASTER EGG IN DOWNPOUR??
This is amazing!

[@narrator5953]

Thank you for making the solution easier to access by sharing it on youtube! there are those who worked really hard to solve this puzzle.

[@AcidArmy_]

Am I correct in reading between the lines that you think it's wrong for people to be able to experience this without doing the work? Well, I have news for you: if it wasn't posted for that reason, it would be posted in somebody's playthrough, or somebody's easter egg roundup, or somebody's rain world guide... point is, people should be allowed to see everything a game has to offer without playing it. That's what so much of RUclips is built off of.

[@Steven-nq7fx]

​​​​​@@narrator5953 in his defense, the "by sharing it on RUclips" and the rest sounds really unnecessary.
The former of it is more than enough.
So by you adding more detailing to your comments, it makes it sounds like you're trying to make a big deal of it.

I was messing around, warping to different rooms with warpmenu when i found out about this room
didnt think much about it but thought it was neat, then i went through the pipe and thought i broke the game (i teleported to here in spearmaster's campaign)
its cool to see it has an actual use

So, why ascend yourself when you can just ascend the whole timeline’s heart itself?

[@wheremycheese]

I'm sorry, but I don't understand what to do if my heart is empty?

you have to get the 3 red cubes on FEZ to get the heart, then you simply just come back here, i think.
