:)

Yea, I love revenge. Especially In overwatch or TF2. xD

Zombie™
thankyou for playing.
as for android's:
I don't think they are that smart.
if they were, they would not have shot at us, on many maps, in the 1st place.
revenge is sweet :)

Android Hell*

:)

it was fun

the fire goes out. then catch them & they won't explode.
as for accidentaly killing a few.
that is why I gave you spares :)
the others can watch you torture their friends & know their time will come.
if having difficulties. the video's & the description, will help.

made it out. had trouble catching them on fire and then puttiong them out. they krpt exploding

oooh thats not nice. now i have to try again. i didnt do very well torturing them. i kind of killed a few oops

actually i just watched the video. i will have to go back and try it out

jandlml
glad you liked it.
did you try all the different ways to get payback, that were in the video ?
& did you find the exit ok ?

very funny !

mrsumo
great :)
this is just a bit of fun / revenge :)
not a puzzle.
a rare map, where you need to know what to do, before you play.
to get the most out of it.
hence the video's & description.

thanks 4 make the videos, i did miss the burning of the turrets with out kill them, i have to play it again just to do that very koool

mrsumo
as it says in the name:
"Turret Hell-how to torture a turret- please read description & watch videos 1st. "
it is literaly ways to torture turrets.
the 2 video's, is to help you see how.

I FIGURE THIS ONE,JUST NEEDED 2 LOOK CLOSER, NICE SURPRISES AWESOME MAP

GraveNoX
funny is good.
this map is not ment to be a puzzle.
but when I descovered how I could torture turrets, I had to share.
more for those who want something different, for a change.
& those who have been sot so many times, revenge is sweet.
I hope you watched the video's, to see the posibilities.
& not miss out.
thankyou for your comments.
I could not see any of your maps, to subscribe to.

Funny chamber, too bad there's no puzzle(s).

ProfDave64
thankyou for your advice.
I can't bring myself to cut the "Turret Hell"
from the description.
as it describes it (from the turrets point of view) so well :)
as for the video URL
this is there, in case they want to copy & paste it into thier browser.
the video's are also attatched to this page, just above the thumbs up / down.
for them to just click on, to make it easy to quickly access.

Glad I could be helpful. I'm open to giving all sorts of feedback, including wordsmithing.

If you want to fit the text into your instruction better, you could drop the "Turret Hell" and rename the level:
How to Torture a Turret (please read description first)

By my count, that would display in the user's queue as:
How to Torture a Turret (please read descr

That should give them enough info, since the description then points them to the videos.

Also, (I think) you could use the URL tag to make the videos jump out from the rest of the description. Like this:

[url=http://youtu.be/rchM4EuHATM]4-minute video[/url]
19-minute video

ProfDave64
as you like turret fireworks.
I recommend trying geneosis's map:

ProfDave64
thankyou very much for your feedback.
I have just subscribed to your map:
Save the Cube, Kill the Turrets
I don't know how to make text come onscreen in the map.
I doubt it is possible in the basic editor.
I have added:
"please read description & watch videos 1st."
to the title.
though you can only view the full title, on this page.
strange that :)
u HAT'M !!
but I love them.
slowly cooking by laser :)

PS. I just noticed something extra goofy! The last few letters of one of your YouTube URLs seems to describe how you feel about turrets:

u HAT'M !!

PART 2 OF 2

How to get people to read your description right before playing? Can you make text come up onscreen in the level itself?

Something like "For detailed instructions on how to make the most of your turret torturing experience, please read the level description before proceeding...?"


More thoughts:

I loved whatever strange thing happened to the turrets in the... second room? It reminded me a little of fireworks.

I had the idea to do a semi-long ride on faithplates, but there's no way I could top this one -- with faithplates on the walls, etc.

If you want to play my latest, it has a measly 3-faithplate fling at one point -- to speed you to where you need to go:

Save the Cube, Kill the Turrets

It's large in size, but I think it goes pretty quickly once you see what you're trying to do.



And now, time to watch the videos that I was supposed to have watched before I started! :-)

PART 1 OF 2

Wow! That was nuts! :-)

I'll try to think of some way to put into words how ridiculous and fun that was in a minute.

But first... actual feedback:
I gather you really want people to read the level description just before playing. If so, you might have to build something into the level itself.

I downloaded this level last night, and didn't read its description. Tonight, I launched it.

I remember as I manipulated the spheres (putting them into their buttons and taking them out one at a time), and then later shot blue gel all over the turrets on top of the lightbridges, I got the nagging feeling that I wasn't doing things the way you intended me to.

In my business, there's a saying: Users don't read! :-o

SkyRoots
great :)

yes and yes

SkyRoots
glad you liked it.
did you watch the non-spoiler video's.
& did they help you get more from the map ?

I liked the concept of putting out the fire with blue gel! Also, making the turret dangle up and down above the water!

ha, ha. :)

Of course I watch your video, and I also liked the other room (I threw up 2 times)

Big Moustache
thankyou for testing / torturing :)
they tortured us enough.
I thought time for some payback.
hope you watched the video's / guide, to help you get the most from it ?
only a very few people have seen turrets in the wild.
so far, none have survived to talk about it.

Very interesting this the torture room. When will a presentation on the reproduction of the turrets in the wild. Where did you get this hate turrets
Good stress relief, thumbs up

Hazelton
ps.
I just subscribed to your map: A turret.

Hazelton
did you watch the 2 videos,
which show what you can do to get the most out of it ?
how did you fall into the goo.
in testing, when coming off a faithplate, the only way to die, was to try to alter your course.
as for not quite your cup of tea.
fair enough.
glad you found it interesting.

Well, that certainly was interesting. I'm not sure what to say... It was very well calibrated and precise. I almost died once or twice, fully died once by falling into goo. As an amusement park ride it's very good, but it isn't quite my cup of tea.

Geneosis
I just subscribed to your map: Self-correction
thankyou for being more specific, about what you liked :)

Yeah that's also why I liked it : sometimes it seems that you will never land correctly on the next faith plate, but it worked all the time anyway X)
I just published a new map if you are interested ;)

Geneosis
thankyou for your positive comments :)
you have been an inspiration, with your maps.
glad you had fun, & hopefully learned something new, in the main room.
as for the rollercoaster.
I had to have a surprise (not in the video's, for the player) .
to round it off.
I deliberatly don't connect some of the faithplates, & have turrets shoot the player.
to create a feeling of danger, for the player.
while they are actualy safe.
hope no deaths ?
hopefully I tested them out.
the turrets above the exit are killable.
that chamber was deliberatly dark.
but when I updated somethings in another chamber.
it became a lot lighter, for some unknown reason.
when you make another map. hopefully soon :)
feel free to link it into the comments of 1 of my maps, & I will play it.

Finnally tested the map ingame ^^ Had fun in the main room and liked the rollersoaster ;)

stormsend
thankyou.
I just subscribed.

Hey mood, I got ya a new puzzle to figure out' Disorder and Confusion . Don't be intimidated by the tiny laser puzzle at the start. It's simple and it's the only one in it. Remember start at the end.

Mitch McWiggins
I just subscribed to your map.
thankyou for playing mine.
glad you had fun.

Fantastic. Especially the first one, with the other three forced to watch, ha! And the fireballs bouncing upwards was great, like fireworks. Good one.
Here's my latest , if you get a chance.

Geneosis
thankyou for your feedback.
I thought you might find it interesting.
I know you have pushed the limits of the editor, in your maps.
I did place gel into the blinking funel with the turret, in the 1 video.
when you make another map, leave a link & I will play it.
I hope you make 1 soon.
as you have been a great inspiration to me.
I admit, I could not complete all of them.
but did most, all good & some blew me away :)

I watched the videos, and I have to admit that I didn't know that you could break turret like that (when they wont detect the player any more) ^^
Also that fact they will burn but not explode if a laser touch them in the blinking funnel was unexpected and really awesome to see :p

PS : You probably noticed that blinking funnel can contain gel flow... I tried to build a map around this mechanism once, but for some reason that messed up the "flow counter", ending with gel tubes producing no gel at all after a few uses X)

you can say that again.
portal 2 rufused to load maps today.
it also said to check my steam connection.
so I checked for steam client updates.
which were available. I then updated it.
then checked integrity of portal 2.
1 file missing, it restored it.
it works again now.
though it had said that it would automaticaly update.
manual update speeded it up.
so I backed portal 2 up to an external harddrive, for insurance.
while I was at it.

Yes that was the one that worked! Nothing stranger than computers.....

Aardvark64
thankyou for your feedback.
their are 2 video's.
the 1st video is refusing to play unless I copy & paste in the address bar & press enter.
it is the 1 where we set a turret on fire, then bring it back to full health.
did you see that 1 ?
