I couldn't find a way to break the first monitor, but I broke the second one.

Hint for the first puzzle:
You can bounce the cube on the aerial faith plate (the plate that throws you with high velocity). Can you find a way to get the cube there while you are in another room?

Hint for the second puzzle:
If you find a way to touch a fizzler, then you'll be able to place a portal that's not connected to the other portal. This is the key to solving the second puzzle.

First room is great! The respawn sneak is beautiful. Room number 2 is also quite good, Nice null trick. Very solid that had me giddy!

Wow, another good one! Thanks for making this.

Yep, these just keep getting better and better. Both amongst the more challenging puzzles in your workshop up to the date it was published. Although, I kind of hope I cheesed the first one a bit. I couldn’t see any other way to get the cube in the funnel for the last part so I strafed and hit the wall to break my momentum so I could land on the platform to respawn the cube, then used the faith plate to launch myself to the platform with the fizzler button, funneled the cube over top of the faith plate, and then let it go, setting the portal on the surfaces directly opposite and higher than the fizzler while on the button. The strafe was the part that irked me a little - not at all hard for someone like myself to execute, but certainly not a “pure-logic” move either .

That second puzzle though… damn. I knew it would be preferable for me to clear my portals at some point but could not figure out how. It would have taken much longer had I not messed around with what I thought was the silly idea of using the cube to jump into the funnel in the area that was initially used to stop the cube from being fizzled , before noticing that all-important portal surface that it took many a while to see. That’d be my one other complaint about this map - many people would never think to look back there, and if it were me I’d probably place it on the furthest-back wall with a grate if need be, highlighting its importance with a light-bar or something of the sort. I didn’t even think it was at all possible to access that faith plate until I saw that surface, and realized it was not only possible but necessary to the intended solution.

But besides the puzzle details themselves, I really like how your aesthetics continue to grow more refined with each of these maps. At least that’s how it feels to me. The reusage of the moving portal surface in the first chamber along with the reusage of the funnel itself is absolutely ingenious and not something one would see in the official campaign.

Great work all in all. Get in my favorites collection.

Difficulty: 4.5/10 (this is a bit of reconciliation between the personal difficulty I had, which I’d place around 3.75, and an objective difficulty: this score would be much higher for the less-experienced)
Enjoyed: 8.25/10

Oops I skipped the last part. I didnt realize you were supposed to reset portals with the fizzler, since that is possible to do by just pressing R so that is what I did.

Yeah I just never once saw that portal surface in the second half of the map and couldn't solve the puzzle. All the hints in people's comments left me lost. Had to watch the video and see a surface I never witnessed before.

Really liked this test. First part took way longer than it should have because I seemed to loose sight that the re-spawned cube could sit int the funnel indefinitely while I set other things up . I agree with others who commented that standing on the cube and resetting the portals with the fizzler were cool parts of the test.

That took a little too much time, but I finally did it. I somehow got stuck even though I sort of had it much earlier. It's a humbling game.
