Aerial Faith Stop

Description
A new technique! Stop yourself in mid-air!
Grab the ball/cube, step on the plate, let go of the ball/cube, and fall!
Note: The timing for the sphere and cube are different! Practice with the first plate to get a feel for it, use the second to demonstrate your understanding, then show your mastery of it in the third!
Edit: ok I remade the first room, and made the thrid room a little easier. Hopefully its better now.

I used this concept to cheat another map. Haha.

Well, this is not a bad mechanism, but your demo map needs some improvements :

1) The first room don't really help to understand the mechanism, maybe do something to force the player to stop in mid air (like placing a ball to get to open the next room in a square of glass at the center of the room).

2) Because it's hard to get it work precisely, the second room really need red gel (or any other quick way to come back to the faith plate).

3) I got the last room at first try by pure luck, but I think this could be a bit too hard...

The main problem with this technique is that you can't really see where you want to fall because you need to hold the cube high enough so that when you drop it, you will hit the cube and not fly over it ^^"

This is a bad idea due to how hard it is to execute.

oh yeah, i forgot to mention, sometimes it seems not to work, if it dosent i found destroying the ball/cube and getting a new one helps.

Finished. Don't know why, but that didn't work the first time.
Good job. If it works it makes fun.

wish i knew how to edit...
@Konqi are you in the second room? what you're suposed to do is stop yourself in mid air by ramming the ball in front of you, and falling onto the white square, wich flings you because you placed a portal there.
Konqi #noteamplay 21 Jun, 2012 @ 5:14pm 
according to your description I just have to let go of the ball. I will try it again.
Konqi #noteamplay 21 Jun, 2012 @ 5:13pm 
OK, then I really missunderstood this level :)
How to stop in the air??
Konqi #noteamplay 21 Jun, 2012 @ 5:00pm 
I just failed the second throw :)
The ball always drops behind the white ground.
I get the best result by jumping backwarts, but even that's not enaugh.

@Konqi: Should I make the last easeir by making the center platform 2 spaces wide?
@Soup Calhoun: Thanks! I realize that it may be too hard for some people, but there are other maps out there that are much more difficult that require timing and percision. Still, for those who want harder challenges, they can use this to up the difficulty. You can't please everyone, after all.
