The Witness

Description
The Witness is a series of 9 rooms that all contain unique puzzles based on the same rule, which you have to guess. Be observant, and it should be all you need to solve it!

-> Difficulty : Medium-Hard (?)

This is the biggest test chamber(s) I've made so far and I'm quite proud of this one! I've worked hard on it, and I do hope you will appreciate playing it.
Please, do not hesitate to give me your thoughts! Some of these puzzles could have a bit of an obscure solution, it needs to be playtested to make sure it all makes sense!

The concept of the map is inspired by the game of the same name, "The Witness" by Jonathan Blow (which I highly recommend, by the way!)

Merci Daloboy, et bravo pour avoir réussi les neuf! L'idée m'est venu assez subitement, j'avais envie d'essayer un concept un peu différent de Portal à base d'énigmes visuelles.

C'est intéressant que tu mentionnes la longueur, parce que j'étais justement en train de me demander si je devais continuer à faire des pièces après la neuvième! C'est vrai que quand on découvre la carte, on y passe facilement du temps et ça peut sembler long. Mais du point de vue design, c'est très addictif à concevoir, ces petites énigmes!
Je réutiliserai sans doute le concept à l'avenir si ça s'ancre bien avec le reste (il faut encore parvenir à faire comprendre au joueur qu'il y a des énigmes visuelles, et ça c'est pas gagné...)

Et désolé pour le plancher intermédiaire! Ce n'était pas prévu pour être caché, sans doute une erreur de design de ma part...!

Alloya Floyd! Sympathique! On perçois ici une formation technique en language codé! La partie la plus drôle pour moi, c'est le bouton piedestal entre la porte fermée et le sol. Je me suis portalé 5 fois entre les deux avec de me rendre compte qu'il y avait un plancher intermédiaire!!
Finale . 9 pièces sur le même sujet...c'est un peu long, mais c'est une belle exploration! Mais dans une prochaine carte, si on tombe sur 2 pièces de ce genre (distancées), ça sera très bien!

Thank you Okami Divine for the kind words, that means a whole lot to me!
It's fairly hard to come up with new concepts on Portal 2, given the amount of chambers that's already been created. I'm really glad to hear you haven't seen anything similar before! Even prouder if it can be an inspiration to you. I'll be delighted to play your map whenever it's online!

Since you beat the chamber, I can safely assume that you found all the visual clues, so I reckon no puzzle in particular was too weird to be understood!

At surprisingly simple concept for a Test Chamber, which I have virtually never seen before. Despite this however, the execution is fantastic: making you observe your surroundings to the absolute maximum and leaving no stone unturned. It's pure genius and simultaneously quite challenging, even to the observant eagle eyes. It certainly did feel rewarding to figure out for myself which switches to place the cubes on. I would love to implement this kind of idea into my own Test Chambers into the future.
Great job and keep it up!! :p2blue::p2orange:
