The player cannot pour sand with there mouse cursor over glass, there mouse cursor must be above the glass when they pour for the sand to go past the glass.

Hazards
Things extremely deadly to the Sleepwalkers.

Water
Water is very dangerous to Sleepwalkers, since they cannot swim. The player can pour sand in water, and build up the sand to make platforms.

Wooden Objects
Things made of wood.

Wooden Wheel
Sand can be poured on Wooden Wheels, and when the wheel turns, it will usually move a Wooden Beam, but it may sometimes be used to move a Wooden Platform.
