Shaft

Cool map. A bit convoluted, but fun and interesting.

Buen mapa, dificultat 6/10 ideal para novatos que quieren empezar con algo dicil (para ellos xDDDD)

The map is designed that you need a cube, a redirection cube, and the sphere in the final area behind the panel the laser is currently touching. You are also allowed to go back to the final room early and observe what you need to get to the exit ahead of solving its puzzle. Since you cannot get access to the cube and redirection cube in the upper part of the level until you figure out how to disable the fizzlers in the shaft, its a pretty simple 1, 2, 3 sequence.

You're absolutely right Timoeeei: You are stuck down below the shaft until you solve all the puzzle elements down there in order to get access opened back up top. I stated that very clearly in the map description so that you would know ahead of time what to expect. I don't write map descriptions describing a catch in puzzle system without a reason!

U must give to a people an alternate way to the top. Like in my own lvl. Check it out by yourselff https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=72109339

Initially looked like a good map, but wtf!? What would be if i just jump to a bottom of the level without placing a ball to it's slot? . Right! I'll just stuck!

Couple last tweaks made. Hopefully we're now at the final-final-release. *fingers crossed*

Looks like a good map ! Let me finish my homework and I test it !

I've put in what I hope to be the final changes on this map early this morning. The room with the laser relay is easier to see into and interact with portals. I was informed that the turret room had an easy bypass to avoid being shot at by the turrets without the proper barrier. This is now fixed. Finally, I realized that getting the cube below the shaft could be done without using the speed gel, defeating the purpose of the puzzle. I added a fizzler in that hall to fix this and put portalable surfaces on the ceiling to allow goo to still spread behind the fizzler.

All in all, I hope this to be one of the final updates to the map and have it as close to a "final" release as possible. This may change if any future feedback spots final flaws in the system or I spot any other cheats/bypasses to the puzzles, but for the most part its all looking solid. Thanks to everyone who has helped out with their input to make this map the best it can be.

Decent map but frustrating as hell. I gave up when i realized that I'd have to go back and redo half of it.

Speed gel along the long corridor. Put a portal at one end and the other portal on the wall across from the item drop thing. You can get plenty of speed to just sprint along and fire yourself up there.
