(Similar to original version but with more portalable surfaces, in an attempt to break the greyness.
Leave a comment if you find a way to cheat it now.)

Update 1.2: Minor bug fixes. (The map is now hard up against the max object limit.)

Update 1.1: Now has a faith plate to give you a shortcut back to the top of the starting area if you make a mistake or lose a cube in the 2nd half.
Have changed the way the reflector cube releases to make it clearer where you need to go next.
Changed the 1st edgeless safety cubes release mechanism so it wont be accidentally triggered resetting the puzzle.
Have also made the ramps easier to navigate. (Thanks to Acunil for the suggestions.)
Also spend a lot of time making it more obvious where you're meant to go next by deliberately orienting the player to face the right way while pressing buttons etc.

A map made in 2012? I come from the discussion, deadly game.:steamsad:

It was a good jogging of the brain. I had to think a bit about the last couple of puzzles. Feels a bit large perhaps though. All in all, thumbs up for a puzzle room of intermediate difficulty.

That's... a really good puzzle.
Just a little note about the design, it's impossible to have a big elevator room in such a 128x128 cubes XD

Nice map, a bit too big and tedious, but overall a good effort. Enjoyed it. Difficulty 5/10 Design 5/10

Early on I had to climb the glass structure, which was easy and boring. This activated some blobs which allowed me to do a jump. After the jump I got the impression that I should have brought the cube with me which I didn't. I didn't see a way to get back to the cube, and gave up.

The map is so large that I spent some time to looking to find a portalable surface. I'd rather play a smaller map where the elements of each puzzle are much more visible. I'd remove the glass structure in the start altogether. I also played your map drain. What I don't like about both maps is that they're huge. I'd rather play a couple of small puzzles that appear clean, and have clearly defined goals, than one huge map which concatenates a lot of small puzzles.

If you're interested in what I like, take a look it this map (made by me): https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=75347549
I'd appreciate the feedback.

The level looked spectular, at the start I thought it would be easy because I can see everything, but it turned out to be quite a challenge. Note to self: always bring companion cube (and thanks thatguy007 for the handy shortcuts back when I didn't).

Not as hard as I expected ^^ But I agree with kikar : If you fall you will have to restart the puzzle at the beginning, and this can be boring when the beginning is far away from where you fell... Maybe you could add some white surfaces on the floor.

Have a look to my workshop if you have a moment ;)

I liked a lot of the individual puzzles. However, strung all together, it felt like kind of a hassle when you fell to the floor and had to go back, especially before recognizing the couple of shortcuts you built in. And it's a bit overwhelming at the beginning to be able to see EVERYTHING. If you think too much you can have difficulty figuring out what you should do at first. Would be better, I think, broken up into several smaller rooms, to be consumed in smaller chunks.

Otherwise, really nicely thought out and assembled. I also like the floating platform. Yours is the first map, other than my own, where I've seen that used.

Overall, the map was fun. I was frustrated that when I fell, especially at the end on the light bridge, I had to redo the final puzzle. Also, the one puzzle where you have the two timed panels and the light bridge, you should double check to make sure that the player has enough time to get there and back.
