Description
Difficulty: Easy-Medium

Welcome to Blast! This is a small map featuring 2 laser cubes as the pair of elements for Determinated's mapping competition, "Reiterated." The puzzle should hopefully challenge you to think outside the box a little bit and use some elements in new ways.

No cube throws, bunny hops, or other special or skilled movement is required to complete the puzzle, only brains. One important note: the execution of one of the critical moves for this puzzle is not entirely consistent due to the nature of the game, but the setup is logical and easy to perform.

I'm not completely happy with the outcome of this map, but I was really starting to stagnate on it, so I figured I should just release it for the sake of freeing up my mind to think about other things.

Quite funny test chamber! Surprised the main move in the map works that way. Exit condition is quite funny, I love moves like that! Thumbs up!

Ha! This one took me a minute or two to see ^^
I never would have believed that the cube would stop ME like it was fixed in the ground whereas it behaves the opposite way when it's cube to cube O.o
Both maneuvers worked perfectly. I appreciate the flat (close to the ground) faith plate trajectory hinting at that move.
It's kind of gimmicky, but it's got unconventional maneuvers as always, so thumbs up :steamthumbsup:

Good test chamber!

I was actually able to do the first move by holding the cube while jumping on the faith plate, then releasing the cube in order to stop my momentum, then quickly catching the cube again. I thought that that was intended. The problem with maps that get into a slightly gimmicky territory is that it's hard to tell what is off-limits; I thought the move I did fell under the category of "not entirely consistent but easy to perform," so I was like "well, I don't like it, but maybe it's intended". Anyway, I enjoyed the intended solution. Thumbs up.

I would like to say that the map errs on the side of inconsistent logic, and when thought through would likely lead one to believe the move would be quite awkward to execute at best, even though with the physics engine its perfectly fine to execute, at least with the few tries I did. I think it's fine to showcase here just because there's not a lot too the map, and when I was put in the position for the move I almost instantly figured it out. Just be careful about how you go about these strange moves when you comes across them :)

I tried to collide with the laser but it was too low. That would be the better solution actually.

Had to watch the playthrough. This looks like a contest of bad maps.
