Gel Solitaire [Updated]

Description
My attempt to make an elegant, purely logical puzzle using conversion gel. The puzzle is almost like a board game; hence the name "Gel Solitaire". No ninja skills required.

Difficulty: Hard, I think. But you be the judge.



Squashing unintended solutions was a nightmare with this puzzle. I originally created the puzzle in BEE2, but in order to prevent certain exploits, I exported to Hammer. (More specifically, I tweaked the gel flow and the placement helpers.) Please let me know if any unintended solutions remain!



Update (12/29) - implemented suggestions by SuperAiderton:

- Changed layout to remove two connections, two glass panes, and the cube
- Simplified one of the four islands

This puzzle is so unique because of how simple and sleek the design is. I love how it's all in one easy to see room and there are so few elements with the most impressive aspect to me being that there are no cubes. Despite the simplicity it still took me quite a while to solve.

I am so dumb I used a null portal instead of simply walking through the portal

Very cool concept. My solution was slightly different than the video, but only in a minor aspect of how I accomplished some of the last steps; every step was still almost exactly the same. Thumbs up.
