"Blind" run (although you can’t really call it that when I’d played Gig’s advanced version a little over a week prior)

Very easy having played Gig’s take on this, but it’s not a bad puzzle for beginners. Some level of spatial reasoning is required. I was gonna say how I thought the lights were a little erratic and the geometry awkward, but I think it’s more so the portal/non-portal surface placements in some areas that made the aesthetics feel just a little “messy” to me, since when I was writing this I did take another peek at the chamber to see what exactly felt a little off about it to me. Nevertheless, I do appreciate the BEE2 work, and the overall layout of the chamber is unique.

Great map thank you!

kinda reminded me one of the chander's tests. much easier ofc.

Hello HMW,

Sorry for putting this message here, but I didn't find any other way of contacting you. I hope you see this.

Long story short, I found your website, clockworkbrain.net , just recently. I'd like to play your Portal 1 maps, Manic Mechanic and Try Anything Twice, however, the downloads on your website are broken. I would love it if you would provide a working link to those maps. Portal 1 has its own charm and it's a shame I missed the community creations from back in its heyday.

Awesome puzzle. So simple yet challenging.

Great map. The logic is intriging.

This had me stumped - pretty simple, but the layout does your brain in.

really good one. it took me like 15 minutes to solve it.

Brilliant map indeed. Had to think and plan carefully to solve this one. Bravo!

This map is brilliant. It's very simple to solve but for some reason the layout makes you think it's impossible.

Nice puzzle for the simplicity and minimalism. Thumbs up!

Many vertical and horizontal misdirecting paths, I think the only difficulty is here. More a circular maze than a logic puzzle. Good layout though (view of areas from other places for example), which is an indicator of good mapping skills.

great test

Excellent brain teaser! Had to come back to it several time before the light dawned.

This is very well designed. Took me 20 minutes before I finally realized the solution. For some reason I really like fizzler puzzles and this was no exception. Great work!

This took me far longer than it should of. I was thinking of much more complex solutions when the solution was so easy I overlooked it.

Like others have said, the solution is so easy it will give you a migraine.
Good job.

nice map, keep up the good work

The trick is to resist moving the cube too soon or you'll be running around in frustration. Respawning isn't necessary unless you need to start over.

Now i've solved it i can't quite figure out why it did my head in at the time, so simple, hurt my head.

clever and fun. hadn't played the original, to be honest I didn't even realise there were custom maps for Portal 1 (Portal 2 was already released when I finally started playing Portal though)

Really good and clever !

I did not think it would have been hard. realy god job!

nice! loved it :D

Such a simple solution, but so hard to see it. Liked this very much:)

Very good puzzle,thumbs up.Can u try mine

Oh wow, this one is so simple, but it took me so long to figure it out. I haven't finished Try Anything Twice so I haven't played P1 version yet. Very nice puzzle design, I am surprised how this test took me longer than other maps with more elements. You are my next favourite level designer, I hope you will make more maps (for both P1 and P2)!

Excellent work. How do you learn to make maps this effectively styled? My specialty is having a series of rooms that need to be completed multiple times in multiple ways, but I wish I could make them look as simple as this.

I recognised it immediately, took me awhile to remember how to do it. A LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONG WHILE.

Good map, got me thinking a lot,

Yes, this shows how the cube will die from the fizzer and you will not. Nice map

@Columbus: I have added some non-standard items to the editor. A pack of these will be released on thinkingwithportals.com soon.

@Gig: I think "Online" means just "Signed into friends". I'm not always signed into friends when I'm mapping.

Easy map. I needed one like this! (p.s. what are those square lights I see in the schematics? I don't remember them from the editor. Maybe I was missing something.)

On Steam, you were online 23 hours ago, but you just posted a comment right now?

Small update; I slightly re-arranged the white walls near the exit, so it is no longer possible to place portals there from the lower level.
(Finally managed to solve the fizzler pole situation.)

Nice, but I felt like the solution needed more steps :D

Very impressive. Lots of back and forth movements required, great work!

heh... I planned to remove some of those upper white panels, since you're not supposed to snipe-portal up there :)

I'm holding off on updating it though, since I'll loose the animated fizzler poles. (Still need to make a workaround for that.)

Indeed I completely recognized this puzzle from Try Anything Twice (lol... I just understood the name of this map right now!!). So good memories! Thanks for mappnig master! I recorded the solution:

Took me sometime. Looks simple, is simple, but somehow, it still game me that "AHA" moment (and made me feel stupid)...Those are the best kind of puzzles. Thanks for creating. When can we expect more. Please make more and showcase your tools.

Harder to invent than finding the solution I guess!

Yeah super easy to over think what you're doing in this. Amazing test chamber. Kudos.

That's kind of the point of the puzzle: it looks more complex than it is :)

I agree that it's a bit big (the original Portal 1 version is a lot smaller) but that's mainly because everything has to be made of these huge blocks. Kind of like having to sculpt a kid-sized sand castle with a JCB. (I tried smaller versions but the design just didn't work out.)

Yes...it's very easy to overthink it.

SMALLER
Make it SMALLER

It's very easy to overthink this one; I very much like the design of the map.

Simplemente genial. Mil gracias.

Easier than it seems, requires a bit of portal-wall hunting.

Few elements, big result. Excellent work! It took me some time.
