Amazing map!

I managed to find the sneaky move quite easily. Very elegant map indeed

What a map, took me some time to find the sneaky move. But still a great puzzle and a nice use of each element !

Going through my list of favourite maps and this has got to be in the top 10 :)

Insane. Things went pretty smooth until I stumbled over the devilish move everybody's talking about. Even though I knew which half-hidden surface I needed to use (because I previously read about it), it was beyond my understanding ^^ I thought about every logical and illogical possible move that could help me getting BOTH cubes to their destination. A cube sacrifice was one of the early ideas I discarded since it seemed too complicated ;-)
Eventually and after an addtional 15mins of saving precious time by using noclip, I found the solution. It's a little unfortunate that this single move killed the flow, but that's what makes the difference in hard maps. So thumbs up of course! :-)

:cupup: Cool map! :vote_yes:

Well, that's the first map I've played in a long time to require some actual thought.

Bravo.

Amazing, complex, logical map! Thanks for all the hints! For me, the key to the solution was the multiple step, multiple use exit-ceiling-exit procedure and the standard cube respawn. Thanks for your work!

Good map, made me think my balls off. Well done

This took me several tries, as in put it back in the queue and try again another day. The end is pretty tricky in my opinion.

This one I needed a hint from the the people who commented on this workshop entry. There's a lot of hardcore portaling going on in this map. That's enough Portal 2 for now.

Great map, challenging and very clever, not to mention the fantastic aesthetics as usual. Even with the hints from the comments, it took me forever to see how the portal surface by the exit door is useful! My only complaint would be that it involves quite a lot of walking.

What a brilliantly clever map. It was extremely satisfying to solve. I'll echo the people saying that the portable surface next to the door should be more obvious. Maybe if you had a point early on where you had to portal to it, and it was the only option in sight. Like before the puzzle even starts, to get away from an entrance area to the main puzzle. That way, the player's attention would be focused on finding a portalable surface, so they couldn't overlook it.

Even with the problem of the portalable surface, this is easily now one of my top ten favorites. There's just so many clever ideas and reuse of elements.

Excellent map. Great reuse of elements and spaces. Everything flowed really nicely while I was solving it. Thumbs up and favorited.

Brilliant, I had to call in a second head to solve this one!
Libbybapa 17 Apr, 2018 @ 4:59pm 
Excellent logical map. It took a lot of thinking to sort out. Thanks.

Awesome puzzle, got stumped super hard and had to resort to hints, but the move I hadn't been able to figure out till the very end, the most satisfying one to discover, didn't have any hints related to it, so I was unspoiled on that front. Excellent work as usual! I'm gonna miss your puzzle collection (until you post more tests, that is. :3 )

a great puzzle, requiring a lot of thought indeed. thanks for making 😀

Excellent puzzle !!!
A lot of repeats, but all clever and logical :-)
Thumbs up and favorite!
asd417 7 Jan, 2018 @ 3:07am 
solved it. Damn it, I was missing such an important information all the time. was there a way to make the portal surface next to the exit more obvious? I dont think I'm the first one to miss it Such a great map. Took around 40 mins in total to solve. I am already looking forward for the hammerized version of this map from you :)
asd417 3 Jan, 2018 @ 7:04am 
spoiler: My real problem is that I got the laser cube to be one second laser button and regular cube in the funnel, blue funnel, I'm standing next to the regular cube which is deactivating the fizzler. I want the cubes to switch place right now but I am not seeing the solution
asd417 3 Jan, 2018 @ 7:02am 
definitely your hardest puzzle. Couldn't solve it. I'll try again later
bullfrog 30 Dec, 2017 @ 11:21pm 
@BehindPortal: yep I know what you mean, when I played it Christmas day, I also took a long time before I noticed it :X
@Fumbly Bumbly: I've played this brilliant puzzle three times now and only just realised I didn't add to favourites the 1st time! Now rectified :)
BehindPortal 29 Dec, 2017 @ 6:07am 
OMG. toughest puzzle. cant solve without ur help . i completely missed portal surface on exit door :p2blue:favorite :p2cube::p2orange:
jandlml 28 Dec, 2017 @ 9:50pm 
all right i finished. most excellent map!! favorited!!:steamhappy:
jandlml 27 Dec, 2017 @ 10:24pm 
i need someone to watch me play and tell me whee im going wrong
jandlml 27 Dec, 2017 @ 9:23pm 
nope cant figure it out need a hint as to what my next step is.im doing exactly what your discription said going in circles . ive respawned both cubes many times accomplishing nothing
jandlml 27 Dec, 2017 @ 8:33pm 
thanks fumbly i will keep at it
Fumbly Bumbly  [author] 27 Dec, 2017 @ 8:11pm 
Another hint that reveals a bit more: There are four required cube spawns in the puzzle
Fumbly Bumbly  [author] 27 Dec, 2017 @ 8:09pm 
@jandlml You're on the right track. If you need a hint: Everything in the map besides the second laser and exit catcher is used more than once. What haven't you used twice, and how might you go about doing so?
jandlml 27 Dec, 2017 @ 7:02pm 
ok i am stuck i have the laser cube on the first laser pointing it at the activator that flips the panel. i have the regular cube on the button that turns on the second laser .i have the first laser pointed through portals to reverse the funnel.i am standing on the side with the regular cube. icant figure out how to get the laser cube over to this side . i was able to bring it over but then i had to use the regular cube and couldnt get myself back over with it. so am i right at least where i am now or did i do something wrong? merry christmas i hope everyone had happy holidays
Fumbly Bumbly  [author] 25 Dec, 2017 @ 4:52am 
Thank you! And Happy Holidays!
bullfrog 25 Dec, 2017 @ 3:07am 
Great puzzle and Happy Christmas, or Happy whatever you like :)
cyhborg 24 Dec, 2017 @ 8:35pm 
good design. however, since the second laser is only needed to open the exit, you can just have the exit be opened by two buttons instead and remove the second laser entirely
