I'm having a bit of trouble in A Safe Space finding the boss key.  

 

[Edit] - Nevermind.  The magic of posting a question led to my own self-discovery.  Got it!

I need help in the Kamelot Kastle and reached a dead end and don't know what to do now at this point.  I already beat the safe place and Virus Corp.  I have currently acquired the boomerang, blue candle, bow and arrow and the recorder.

Do you mean the courtyard area of the castle or the interior? If it's the courtyard then you need several pieces of equipment before proceeding into the interior. In the flowchart on the first page of this thread you will see that, after Virus Corp, there are 9 places that must be visited before being able to properly tackle the castle; the largest gap between any of the Triforce dungeons, though thankfully after that access to the Triforce dungeons becomes more frequent.

I'm at the Freakshow Island now that I got the Roc's Feather and killed all the enemies on top of the screen. Once I got to the right end,  I cannot jump high enough to get on the blue blinking platforms.  I hope this isn't a quest maker error that the Roc's feather jump height wasn't set high enough.

Me and LordKronos were able to reach the platforms. I can't imagine there being any errors that would prevent progress. The problem you might be having is likely due to the necessary jumps needing tight precision. I admit that setting the jump height higher would've been a good idea.

I can only jump to one tile high and the platform above it is two tiles high.

So this is how LordKronos managed to get through the level. I don't know if simply watching the video will make things clear or if there could some underlying issue I'm not aware of.

Is there somewhere I'm supposed to be given the hint for the second jungle maze?  I paid for the first but can't find the second.

That old man should have given you directions for both of the maze paths in the same hint. Do you think perhaps you skipped it by accident?

Thank you.  For someone reasonably well educated sometimes I am very, very stupid. 

 

Edit:  I just want to say, as I know you've solicited comparisons, but I like this a fair bit better than the first so far.  Something about the first didn't work for me and I didn't get very far.  Maybe I'll go back.  But this has sucked me in and compelled me to keep playing.  It's hard in places but in a good way.

Quest completed - review posted.  Very enjoyable.  Question -- Is there just the one ending?  I thought for sure the Temple of Ascension was going to come back into play at some point but other than it's brief cameo midgame it never did.

There's only one ending in this quest. The first quest has two endings and both can be done in a single save file.
The temple of ascension is more of a reference to something that is more relevant in the first quest. There are other things in Cyclebreaker that are also references, like somebody mentioning the moon being blown up (Lunar Fragments dungeon), Arcadia and the west side of town (Detroitus), Lake of Sorrow (basically the backyard of Land of Sorrow), Neon City (as opposed to Neon Park), Cakewalk Canyons (literally the same as its first appearance but with minor changes). Might be a few more I cant recall off the top of my head.

On a side note, it looks like this is my 2000th post. Nice.

Gotcha.  Like I said, after my positive experience playing this I think I'll give the first another go.  I'm not sure what happened last time.  Sometimes if I'm in a weird mood and a quest doesn't grab me immediately I just kind of stop playing and almost forget about it.  I think that's what happened.  Now that I'm into the thing my guess is I will like it.
