This is the Only Puzzle

Description
NOTICE
This map is only compatible with the pre-SE2017 legacy branch. Change to it by right-clicking your Talos Principle game in the Library, going to "Properties" and then "Betas", finally selecting the "legacy" branch from the dropdown menu. Take care, as this has a chance to delete your main game save files. Back them up first.

There's just one puzzle! ...Or is there?

This is The Only Puzzle is not any ordinary Workshop campaign - thought it might seem that this mappack has only one puzzle at first, soon you'll have to use all your metagaming skills and complete the puzzle in new and crazy ways. Just when you thought you were done - you've got to beat the puzzle a few more times, after all!

Featuring...
  • Thirty stages of puzzle solving accompanied by polka music!
  • Seven stars sprinkled across the levels for the dedicated hunters!
  • Two post-game unlockable gamemodes to enhance your only puzzle solving experience!
  • Seven scrapped stages that are just downright cruel - I actually don't recommend playing them.
  • No recorder puzzles!
  • No platform puzzles!
  • It's got kittens with laser eyes, too. What's not to like?

Finished? I eagerly await to hear your thoughts on the map, as well as any bugs you may have to report.
Stuck? I'll gladly give a hint or two in the comments below... ;)

After playing this once I had to redo in order to get all the stars to get to play another 'level'(?)
But now the terminal keeps rejecting the password code *which is correct btw.*

:steambored: I don't want to play anymore

I was strugling with stage 24 and found the hint in this workshop, but I like to know how I was suppose to finde the right collors?

Not that anybody anywhere ever cares :steamfacepalm:

Well I finally manage to solve stage 19 ... I just did it in absolute darkness :steamhappy:
Oh and in Mod32 version so that took care of the missing comments as well.

According to Mauritsio you have to play the modable version in order to be able to play Stage 19 right, but I was playing the modable version. However I turned modable off and now the colors are much brigther . But now I only see ''TRANSERROR" as name of the Stage and also not the comments after finishing the stage. I have not reached Stage 19 yet, but I think it should work at least a little due to this new brightness

Stage 19 is impossible to do for me. Tried the console option but that only disables the sounds so I am left both BLIND and DEATH as well .

THE Maker(s) should provide some kind of pass by, cos apart from STAGE 19 I really like this mod :steamsad:

i concur with what exe said and a .gro file would make it easier to play

I would love to play this map, but I only play with the newest game version. Is it possible to make it compatible with the newest game version?
