Description
An easy-medium difficulty funnel puzzle.

Welcome to Remote Control, my first portal gun on/off concept puzzle! This was a difficult mechanic for me to make a puzzle around, and it took many iterations before I was happy with the puzzle. Please note that the faith plate and retractable pedestal button are anti-trapping measures and are not part of the intended solution. Hopefully you will all enjoy this one!

All credits for the portal on/off mechanic go to tuleby (CZ) and FLooper.

Special thanks to Teo and Determinated for playtesting, their advice, and their feedback.

The music used is Waking Up to Science from Portal Stories: Mel, composed by Harry Callaghan (Harry101UK).

As always, feedback is appreciated! If you think you've found any exploits or unintended solutions, please let me know and I will fix them ASAP

Fun map. I assume this is all intended.

I enjoyed it, thanks for creating! It took me a bit longer than expected.
If you're interested, here's my blind run, split in 2 parts. Nothing special. Although I have to mention that I discovered a potential trapping situation at some point (part 1, 6:40)

Very nice map!

Nice map, clever use of the portal buttons even though I find that 4 of them is a bit much for one puzzle. Still nice work!

An incredibly excellent test. Unique concept. Took me a bit to understand how it worked, but once I did I was able to complete it.

As others have said, visibility could be better etc. but I think it's a really good easy-medium puzzle and an excellent first foray into “portal gun on/off concept” and its associated fizzlers; definite thumbs up: intended solution ? I’ve seen the fizzler issue, that @jgaultney highlighted, in one of @hub’s maps and at that point we put it down to my cheap graphics card.

Fun easy map. Kinda of a game of getting the cube to the next button all the time :] Thumbs up

This puzzle is an excellent example to demonstrate the differences between the two types of fizzler in the on/off concept. Very well done!
