The placement of the entrance door was a bit unfortunate for me, had me retrying to jump into the funnel more than once. But beside that a very solid puzzle.

Really nice. Great logic twists.

@jandlml
Thanks :steamhappy:.

i like the new layout.at first i didnt know what to do. i tried bouncing the gel but it didnt work. kept at it and it worked,must of not hit in the right spot. nice puzzle liked it a lot
dire.fcs  [author] 18 Nov, 2015 @ 3:06am 
New map layout with same core idea.
jandlml 28 Apr, 2015 @ 9:12pm

@kimist108
Thanks again.

Oh, that was a nasty thing for the laser light to do. But, then, that faithplate was a big hint.

@vioray
Thanks for playing and your comments; this map was one of the most updated of mine (there were several exploits, but I managed to reduce or maybe get no exploits now).
vioray 6 Nov, 2014 @ 2:59pm 
interesting and well designed puzzle. it's not difficult to see what you need to do, only how to actually do it, which is usually the best way. took a little messing about and experimenting but managed to get through it. as far as I could see there's no exploits left either, but I'd never bet on that on any map
Ganymede 2 Nov, 2014 @ 2:12pm 
Oh. I guess that makes sense... Never tried to do that before.
dire.fcs  [author] 2 Nov, 2014 @ 1:50pm 
@Ganymede
The laser explodes the bubble gel, common sense.
Ganymede 2 Nov, 2014 @ 1:46pm 
Ah! The light bulb went off! I finally see why you need the faith plate!

Now I just need to figure out why there's a laser above the faith plate and everything in this map will make sense.

@Ganymede
Thanks for your video. Your method is now unavailable.
Ganymede 31 Oct, 2014 @ 11:31pm 
Here's the solution that I can up with. No faith plate, no reverse tractor beam.
Ganymede 29 Oct, 2014 @ 1:46pm 
In that case, I'll post a video of my solution so you can see why it's not needed. It might help in case you want to rearrange things at some point.
dire.fcs  [author] 29 Oct, 2014 @ 12:40pm 
@Ganymede
The faith plate is suposed to be used in the main part of the solution.
Ganymede 14 Oct, 2014 @ 10:11pm 
Well, I beat it. Although, I have no idea what the faith plate in the pit was for. I never needed it. I also never needed the laser or the reverse-polarity tractor beam. Sometimes the second cube bounces to the other side of the laser grid. I'm assuming this wasn't your intention.

Thanks

That was fun :) Thumbs up!

@SkyRoots
Thanks again for playing. The faith plate in the pit is the key to this map.
SkyRoots 16 Aug, 2014 @ 1:29pm 
Fun chamber. It wasn't too difficult once I realized what the faith plate in the pit was for.
dire.fcs  [author] 18 Apr, 2014 @ 6:32am 
Ok!
Traveler807 18 Apr, 2014 @ 6:12am 
Hey! I made a new test using some of the gell ideas in this map.
Would you playtest for me? Will be visable if you accept my friend request:)

Traveler807 14 Apr, 2014 @ 10:31am 
Yeah I figured they were for gell bouncing , I placed gell everywhere I thought it might be helpfull (and some other places too :)
http://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=249182610 .
There is another way to place those gell spots too, but its quite complicated.
My solution involved falling into the pitt, carefully dodging the fizzlers but it felt like a cheat
dire.fcs  [author] 14 Apr, 2014 @ 10:09am 
@ Traveler807
Thanks for playing! Have you use the faith plates on the pit?
Traveler807 14 Apr, 2014 @ 8:07am 
Wow! made it through the exit door this time, it took some speedy moves and didnt feel completely intended, but was very satisfying to complete. Thumbs up from me:)
dire.fcs  [author] 14 Apr, 2014 @ 7:03am 
@ Stuntmanmyke
So you managed to put the cube in the grating case using only the timed funnel, without previously using the gel?

I think I fixed your unintended solution; the block ceiling was for using in case you got trapped in the pit and to open a portal from that portalable wall near the exit. I removed the block ceiling.
dire.fcs  [author] 12 Apr, 2014 @ 5:13pm 
Some hacker erased the file from my HDD (bsp and p2c) (I'm having probllems lately somebody is, sometimes, playing my P2 while I'm online)
Stuntmanmyke 12 Apr, 2014 @ 3:28pm 
No problem :)
dire.fcs  [author] 12 Apr, 2014 @ 3:19pm 
I'll check it out! thanks again
Stuntmanmyke 12 Apr, 2014 @ 3:13pm 
After activate the flip panel, i go to the exit side, i make one portal on portalable surface next to the exit, one other in portalable block at the ceiling, after i go to the faith plate next to pedestal button and i jump on blue gel i was apply before, with a good jump i'm able to pass over the fizzler and i just go in funnel which i've activate, i get out in exit place and i shot one portal on the flip panel, my cube go in button cube and i get out !
dire.fcs  [author] 12 Apr, 2014 @ 3:04pm 
you manage to get the directly with the funnel, placing a portal in the case when you were down in the pit? You weren't fizzlered?
Stuntmanmyke 12 Apr, 2014 @ 3:00pm 
I just gelified the floor in funnel case nowhere else.
dire.fcs  [author] 12 Apr, 2014 @ 2:58pm 
how do you get the gel to the ohter part? there are two faith plate in the pit, you have to make the same move twice
Stuntmanmyke 12 Apr, 2014 @ 2:57pm 
Ho...I never using it. I made a very creative alternative solution i think .
dire.fcs  [author] 12 Apr, 2014 @ 2:56pm 
Yes
Stuntmanmyke 12 Apr, 2014 @ 2:55pm 
You talking about faith plate under the gratting ?
dire.fcs  [author] 12 Apr, 2014 @ 2:51pm 
Thanks for playing! the intentended solution is to make pit stop holding the gel in both faith plates and then use the funnel to get the gel to the other part of the room; then is just a question of a few jumps and portal shots. It's bit hard the timed funnel, but I think there's plenty of time.
Stuntmanmyke 12 Apr, 2014 @ 2:42pm 
Maybe add a boutton for cube fall on faith plate cause it's easy to restart the level without
Stuntmanmyke 12 Apr, 2014 @ 2:41pm 
That was hardish but i do it. However, i don't known if i solved it with intended solution. Good job .
dire.fcs  [author] 6 Apr, 2014 @ 12:08pm 
And thanks for playing!
dire.fcs  [author] 6 Apr, 2014 @ 12:07pm 
You can check the first spoiler comment!
Traveler807 6 Apr, 2014 @ 10:10am 
I'm having the same problem Andi had:) Tough map, will have another go later
dire.fcs  [author] 1 Apr, 2014 @ 11:42am 
Thanks for playing!
Andi 1 Apr, 2014 @ 11:31am 
Yes, I had to.
dire.fcs  [author] 31 Mar, 2014 @ 4:32pm 
Did you use the gel?
