I did it, but didn't use the bridge. You can use a ledge boost to get enough height to make it.

intuitively passed for 2 minutes, I myself did not expect;)

A little difficult the final part because the bridge is just a trap , but is a nice map! ;) ..if you want to try my job, here's the link! ;) ...It's a long and hard map! Bye! ;)

@GWD9000 - Not entirely sure what you mean - the intended solution is to fling yourself off the faithplate into a lightbridge coming out of the floor, letting you neatly fall down through the hole and into the exit. Doing that shouldn't really require any precise movement on your part and I get to the exit every time with it. Still, the fact that you can still do it with unintended ways and a bit of luck is a real flaw, but redesigning it any further would probably be more trouble than it's worth when I could be working on other things. Thanks for playing and taking the time to leave feedback anyway!

I like the window/porthole idea - good application. The reaching the exit is a problem. There are 2 ways to do this - the intended way appears to require facing down, going forward as you fall against the lightbridge, as deadweight momentum doesnt get you through . The second method of moving over to drop thru a lower placed portal in mid air - there must be a name for that move - generates more exit velocity, even after you hit the roof , but still causes you to not make the exit more than half the time even with crouching. Overall nice ideas, but too reliant on preciseness. Thanks for making the map. Cheers.

This is a beautifully simple map. All maps should be like this.

If at first you don't succeed, fail 20 more times, give up one the test, and give it a thumbs down for frustration. I could not for the life of me understand how to fling to the exit!!!

I think i flueked this by acident. I really liked the ending, it was very clever

Yeah the fling is not that hard if you know how it's supposed to be done. So if something seems hard to pull off, try something else. Nice map.

Ha, that's good, because that's pretty much all I've made since then...

Really nice and short test! Loved it ^^ I really prefer this kind of test to the big and long tests you made before :p

Yeah tricky fling to exit, had to try a couple times - kept hitting wall on rt side.

Great map! I was initially frustrated that I couldn't see what the buttons did. Once I realised your intentions, everything was straightforward. Good work on the final part of the puzzle (reaching the exit): I don't think I've seen that idea before! Visually the chamber met a high standard, even though it was relatively compact. On that note, the chamber was the perfect size.
Thanks for mapping!

zivi - thanks for the comment. I'm not too happy with the final part myself, really - I wish I could make it more obvious what isn't going to work, as it currently seems like it might be possible if you keep trying. Still, I'd either have to redesign the whole chamber or else make even more black space to rectify that, so I'll just have to leave it....

Great idea with the actual Oval Window. The final distraction was a bit unnessecary imho. It had me convinced there was something wrong with the physics for quite a while until I realized it was my fault.

Fun little room - I really like these tightly contained puzzles. The graphics are great and it wasn't overly complicated! Thanks for uploading.

@XLR8br - I think I see what you were trying - have made a couple of tweaks so that you have to do it in a way that's always successful. Thanks for playing and commenting!

I had to retry, fling to exit didn't always worked, I kept hitting the wall. I used the faith plate.

Fling is also EZ if you know how! Thanks for playing.

Tricky fling to exit. Rest was EZ
