Description

This map was made for Mikeastro's ComPeTItion #2.

You maybe gathered wrong assumptions after playing the original map about what's possible and what isn't. Please play this map unbiased and reevaluate if certain things are possible or not.

DON'T DEFEAT OR ABUSE PORTAL MAGNETS. They are there on purpose. Thanks.

No cube throwing, speedrunning techniques or ninja crap. Also no angled lasers through portals.
Everything has to be solved with logic and some creative bits. There are a couple of timed manoveurs, so plan your actions. F6 and F7 are your friends.

Aim at the grey part when pressing the pedestal button. When looking at the red top, it sometimes doesn't recognize your input for whatever reason.

Slight shutdown delayer for the relay, so that you can't spam the cubes.
LONG walking times and fast funnel are for anti-cheat, sorry.

Music and original map by Mikeastro. It's a remake of Module.

@Mausgeburt, Thank you for replying. I looked into it a little and you might be right. Seems like something possible in older versions that is no longer a thing in the latest versions

@E L Y T R O N: Oh, doesn't it work by just adding those angled blocks on top of antlines? Might be a version thing. Maybe the BEE forums/ github helps?

How did you get antlines on the sloped blocks? is that possible in beemod?

I was stumped for the longest time on those ending moves, was so tunnel visionned on the laser that I didn't consider pulling the cube off the button with the funnel

. Only thing that could have made this map better would be a secondary usage of the gel . Great map either way, easy favourite!

Very nice puzzle. Just for fun I managed to cheese it without using the blue gel.

Phew! Finally completed this puzzle. My solution was slightly different than the one you link, and it was this difference that kept me stumped for so long - it never occurred to me that I could acquire the blue gel so early in the solution, and so I took the opportunity at about 13:00 into your solution video to have both cubes in the central laser area and perform the relevant move there, rather than having them behind bars. This assumption lead to me missing for ages what should have been obvious in retrospect - that the timer on the floor button meant that I could use the pull funnel without losing access to the titular periscope. My other slight deviation was in pulling the cube entirely into the funnel at the end rather than dropping & grabbing it. Very nice stuff!
