Twist 'n' Wiggle

Description
PLEASE READ

Easy map, which has only 2 portal surfaces, both on the floor and only 2 connections. It's meant as introduction to basic concepts resulting of portal orientations.

Difficulty: 2/10
No special execution skills or crazy running required.

List of unintended things:
  • glitches
  • speedrun techniques (bhop, strafing etc.)
  • cube tossing with wild mouse movements

Additional item information:
- narrow ceiling and floor surfaces have to be shot while standing in-line with them. I added a darker floor texture wherever possible in order to indicate the line of sight
- white floor surfaces have 2 orientations, depending from which side you shoot the portal. I added magnets to make the shots smooth. It's recommended to stay at least one block away from the surface and not directly over the surface when firing.
- the faith plate is not required for the solution, but feel free to use it.

Known issues:
- don't jump against the faith plate (this can kill you), simply walking against it is sufficient.

Useful things:
  • "noclip" can help to do some experiments. Be aware that the added portal magnets might only work while standing on ground
  • feel free to adjust the music and/or sound effects in the options menu

Huge thanks to Libbybapa for playtesting, technical help, advice and incessant support.

I did try Ontology a while ago, and didn't really get anywhere. It might be a bit too soon as I'm still getting back into the P2 mood, but it's in my queue of course :)

@Leo: Thank you so much, Leo! It's fantastic to see you playing more P2 recently! Glad you had fun... now the bigger "brother" Ontology? ;)

@BehindPortal: Thank you for your comment and congrats on solving! :)
