Still very fun, thanks!

This is a pretty difficult chamber, I had to lookup the solution. First time playing a puzzle harder than portal 2, but I like it. The fling solution is pure genius and so is the correct fizzler switch solution.

@pkScary
Wow, I think you are being way too generous, but thanks.

One of the most epic maps I've played, and I've logged 300+ hours in Portal 2.

Great logic puzzle and, funnily enough, I had the same problem as @Petutski wrt where to place the redirection cube lol
Petutski 1 May, 2018 @ 7:15pm 
Great map. I got all the "hard" parts easily. Took me a while to position the redirection cube in the right place. Thanks!
Trensposys 3 Dec, 2015 @ 10:13am 
this was way too hard (for me :). First 2 of the trilogy were more easy for me. This was a step too far ..
But thanks for making it. I had fun.

Very good layout and nice puzzling here!

@KAKTUS ‡SvK‡:
Glad u liked the map!
KAKTUS ‡SvK‡ 24 Aug, 2015 @ 8:15am 
"OMG" very difficult :steamfacepalm:

excelent,i have to remember that laser trick st the end.i keep forgetting
BlumCoLe' 3 Aug, 2015 @ 11:26pm 
Sorry, i don't know why it WAS negative.
Maybe ...because I played too many maps. ^^

Please make coop maps ...we will test all. :)

@BlumCoLe' (✿◠‿◠) :
Thanks man, glad u enjoyed it and changed ur rating LOL. I saw the video, 100% intended solution, kudos!
Cheers!
BlumCoLe' 2 Aug, 2015 @ 5:17am 
That was a surprise, that was really cool. :)
I beat the estimated playtime (14 minutes) ...I think "medium" is more realistic.
If this is medium-hard, which difficulty should have the brainteasers by DrFauli ? 'unsolvable'? xD

Now I understand why you spam your maps in all other workshops ...but I think there is a more fair way to become better known.

Clean style, good puzzle, thumbs up!
(please don't ask me my it WAS a negative)

Thanks for mapping, really good map.

@contact:
The map´s solution has nothing to do with being on the clock. There is a video walkthrough for you to see.
contact 28 Jul, 2015 @ 8:06am 
I dropped everything as soon as I realized that being on the clock was
going to be a problem. 'Don't need the pressure.
totes amaze balls 28 Jul, 2015 @ 5:58am 
So do use beemod?
I see some warm lights
Memereaver Gul'Dank 28 Jul, 2015 @ 12:51am 
It was so hard for me! I watched walkthrough, and then I understand that solution is very simple. It's a great map!
dmuk 27 Jul, 2015 @ 11:06pm 
Had to use the walkthru... sigh. Quite a nice map; plenty of techniques I'll use elsewhere, too!

Glad u liked them!

Enjoyed this series (and Monoportal), thanks for making it ;D
azertyuiop 26 Jul, 2015 @ 6:48am 
A fun moment in this puzzle, thanks.
Spaceminnow 23 Jul, 2015 @ 11:19pm 
I really enjoyed the whole puzzle. Learned alot from this one. I feel my skill has improved :D
Mathey2009  [author] 23 Jul, 2015 @ 8:39pm 
@Spaceminnow:
There is no need to fix the map. Everything is as it is intended...I can see you are atempting to make the usual misleading solution that is also intended. I do not want to spoil anything of the puzzle itself but the solution is not pressing the laser and racing to the exit door and expect to be there on time, u have to do something else.
Spaceminnow 23 Jul, 2015 @ 7:29pm 
I noticed a recent update. The ending puzzle timing is messed up. I tried many times to race to the exit door and the tractor shuts off before the character can get to there.... I tried many things to improve travel time... can't be done unless the timer is longer or turning on the tractor without the use of portals or maybe speed gel is needed ?... I like the clever fing to get the standard cube :) Please fix it :)

@lfairban:
Thats odd....maybe thats why the map still has no ratings...
lfairban 23 Jul, 2015 @ 1:08pm 
Excellent map. I have done a double orange drop bump before, but never starting on the floor. The ending had me stumped until I started thinking outside be box. The end rating screen didn't come up, but that could just be me.
Slaghkre 22 Jul, 2015 @ 11:06pm 
Ya, I don't think I would have figured it out any time soon. lol
Mathey2009  [author] 22 Jul, 2015 @ 8:26pm 
Yeah, I know what u mean, thats the hard part of the map. Its a laserdox or perpetual laser. Mevious and Gig have some maps which deal with this effect.
Slaghkre 22 Jul, 2015 @ 8:15pm 
Just that I looked at the video to do a couple parts. The laser and getting the companion cube. I think I've done a manuever like the one to get the companion cube, but don't think I've ever done something like the part with the laser.
Mathey2009  [author] 22 Jul, 2015 @ 7:44pm 
@aerosabia:
Cheat how? Glad u liked it!
Slaghkre 22 Jul, 2015 @ 6:48pm 
I had to cheat, great puzzle. :)
Katt Chatt 22 Jul, 2015 @ 4:52am 
funnilly enough, I already subbed this map :)
Mathey2009  [author] 21 Jul, 2015 @ 1:59pm 
To all:
Just fixed some exploits found by toncica. Thanks again on finding them. If anyone else finds some unintended solutions please let me kow.
Mathey2009  [author] 21 Jul, 2015 @ 12:59pm 
@toncica:
OK that was all unintended....I gotta fix it. Not the way to get the second cube, not the way to get cube to exit map. Gonna fix and I will let u know so u can try and beat it.
toncica 20 Jul, 2015 @ 8:41pm 
Minimum portals:10 :P
The laser part is clever, I liked that. The simple beginning is not satisfying to an experienced player, I was glad it got more interesting. You can't make them all happy...
Btw, you can shoot a portal through the gap under the fizzler because of the lowered staircase (near the exit). You'll see in the video what Combyte meant, I jumped off the angled panel and he jumped off the cube.
Mathey2009  [author] 20 Jul, 2015 @ 10:38am 
@Combyte:
I did not fully understand your unintended solution. Is there a way for u to make a .dem video and put the link to the file over here? Thanks again for playing!
Panca 18 Jul, 2015 @ 4:31pm 
@Mathey2009 :)) No problem, you're great at map making so I see no reason to not play them.
Mathey2009  [author] 18 Jul, 2015 @ 2:43pm 
@lars.faber:
Thanks for taking the time to play my maps, glad u enjoyed them!
Panca 16 Jul, 2015 @ 1:10pm 
Well, I don't have much to say.. Just really, really great! The map has a very smart design, and the puzzle is just awesome. so... *Rate up!*
Combyte 11 Jul, 2015 @ 6:38pm 
Very nice puzzle! Really enjoyed it. After i finished your puzzle, i watched your video and found out that you won't need to shoot portals through one room into another to get to the second cube... What i did was place the reflector cube near the edge of the drop off, jumped off from the cube, shot out of the 30 degree platform and grabed the cube. Thought if that's not supposed to happen i'd let you know :P. Nice puzzle overall!
Kazmurf 11 Jul, 2015 @ 3:51am 
I solved it using only two out of the four laser-catchers. Did I done-goof? I also think I got the second cube in a non intended way.
Mathey2009  [author] 10 Jul, 2015 @ 11:20am 
@Vision:
Well, I am sorry u didnt like it. It seems the maps difficulty was under rated by me, its rather harder than I initially thought. But everything done in the map is pure logic and with no ninja reflex type of solutions. I think I will post a video walkthrough so people who get stuck can have a look (if they want to spoil the fun of solving it).
Vision 10 Jul, 2015 @ 5:40am 
I didn't like this. It started simple but, at the end, I was lost. To perfect making satisfying puzzles, I recommend continuing that simple approach without making the player stuck for too long.
realcoldfate 9 Jul, 2015 @ 12:08pm 
This is a hard puzzle in my opinion keep in mind you made the puzzle so your not having to figure everything out you only need to pull it off, while all of the players have to figure it out and execute it. I just finished it and It took me a while to compleate but it was good and made me feel acomplished in the end.
Mathey2009  [author] 9 Jul, 2015 @ 11:00am 
@Party P3opl3 9:
You think its high instead of medium? Its kind of hard to determine how difficult a map is, cuz frankly speaking it is quite subjective to each one. For some expereinced players this map is actually easy/medium but for unexperiences ones maybe it is really hard.
Maybe i will change the description to medium-hard.
Dr. Party P3opl3 9 9 Jul, 2015 @ 10:33am 
@Mathey2009
yeah I did finish it :P
Also the laser bit was also done quite well :3
But you might want to change the difficulty to high if you know what I mean :calm_creep:
Mathey2009  [author] 9 Jul, 2015 @ 9:59am 
@Party P3opl3 9:
Thanks for playing, glad u enjoy it! I suppose u beat it right? The hard part (and fun as u stated) is getting the secoond cube so the rest (except the laser part) is easy enough to manage the map and finish it.
Dr. Party P3opl3 9 9 Jul, 2015 @ 9:54am 
Very clever with getting the 2nd cube :3
