I had the chamber without the button before but some people got unlucky with the cube bouncing around in other parts of the test. So I that's why I made the fizzler changes.

I think I got very lucky. I only painted the floor in the cube compartiment, the funnel had some hiccups but did not drop me, and after this I didn't had to wait that long before the cube bounced out and fell into the water. Screenshot before exiting

Hi MrMister, Thanks for playing. Your way was more intended then stormsends way. I know about DeathWish's account.. it's sad. The fizzler was to make sure you can kill the cube when it goes the wrong way. There ware instances that people had to wait so that it randomly felt in the water. Now if you push the button the cube will surely die :)
MrMister 11 Sep, 2022 @ 2:01am 
I also suspect something neither is the intended way because neither solution makes any use of the 1 and X fizzleers; I still have no idea what the point is of the button that activates them.

Oh and BTW, the blindrun by DeathWish808 that you link in the description is unavaliable because their youtube account was terminated.

Solved it. I'm not sure I did it the intended way, so here is the "eureka moment" [streamable.com] if you want to comment on it.

Was it inteded to be solved this way, or stormsend's? Mine doesn't require precise timing, but theirs is more consistent.

fun
Donderbus  [author] 2 Sep, 2019 @ 3:44am 
ah I see: the reportal at 3:47 should have killed you. I don't have the original files so I guess it has to be.
Donderbus  [author] 2 Sep, 2019 @ 3:12am 
Looks pretty good to me apart from the last part. Just holding the cube against the button at 2:31 is also an option.
stormsend 1 Sep, 2019 @ 4:44pm 
I wish I could remember how I did it before. This is how I did it this time.

Hi BUG, thanks for your comment and good job on solving this :)

Thank you for another mind wrenching test.Mission complete.:steamhappy:
Donderbus  [author] 4 Oct, 2016 @ 12:35pm 
Thanks a lot Agent Dale Cooper for taking the time to solve this one. Good job and thanks for your kind words.
Special Agent Dale Cooper 4 Oct, 2016 @ 12:12pm 
Awesome map, I enjoyed it very much. Not too difficult except for the last move, which took me rather long and is hard IMO. I also liked the possibility to walk around the whole map and take a look at everything before solving!
Despite all the praise I encourage everyone to embrace the following sentence: F6/F7 is your friend!
Thank you once again for mapping :)
Donderbus  [author] 20 Aug, 2014 @ 12:16pm 
Thank you for your kind comment, I'm glad you liked it.

Very well done map! It took me a moment to figure out how to disable one laser beam, but after a while I was able to figure it out. I like this kind of maps. They don't include "near impossible solutions" only author could achieve; all steps are obtained through logic and number of tries.
Donderbus  [author] 15 Dec, 2013 @ 8:09am 
Yeah, you're right, you can be unlucky with the bouncing of the cube. I can make some changes to the test so that it will be destroyed easier. After voting stage is over I'm gonna take a look at the possibilities. Thank you for playing and commenting.

DISCLAIMER:
Read my profile before reading the rest of my comment!

Had to look at DeathWish808's video for the final thing to do before reaching the orange gel. I was able to figure out everything else. Thought I was doing something wrong or missing something I overlooked. The solution is unique and good but the time it takes to regenerate the cube by killing it with blue gel is borderline random for you to use blue gel at the last spot before running to the exit. You have to wait an undetermined amount of time to be able to proceed. That is the only annoying thing about this puzzle.

The light bridge seems like a waste. I like to cross with blue gel.

My last one was Hard Logic . Some have enjoyed it. Thanks.

Hey stormsend, thanks for playing and commenting. I played that chamber already. Is there another chamber you want me to try?
stormsend 13 Dec, 2013 @ 2:00am 
Very well thought out and planned. Great puzzle. Took me forever to get to the fizzler at the door of the final chamber. Only took half as long from there. I saw no glitches or exploits. This is one fine map. Thanks for sharing it.
Glad To See Your Back

nice Dreamer. Submission is in voting stage so I can't update my map.

Fabulous chamber!!! First I felt kinda lost but then I had lots of fun solving this. Very well done!
Donderbus  [author] 8 Dec, 2013 @ 5:02am 
Thanks, very creative! I'm going to make some changes.
Aykut ( Dreamer) 7 Dec, 2013 @ 5:48pm 
I mean the button with the squar sign
Aykut ( Dreamer) 7 Dec, 2013 @ 5:41pm 
I have use godmode and noclip, just to come back without dying or saving. This may be broke

the second one is not a blidrun, just an unintended without using the lightbridge and the squar button

Donderbus  [author] 7 Dec, 2013 @ 3:41pm 
Haha no, I was kidding ;) I know you.
As I said, I played it a lot of times and it worked... it helps to not paint the top part of the button or right next to it, the cube could bounce off the top side (it looks like it can't be painted but I've seen the cube bounce of) But as I said, that issue could only be resolved in Hammer
LPChip 7 Dec, 2013 @ 1:47pm 
And as explained, I did not cheated and looked at the video. You know me well enough to just say so if I did or ask for a hint. When I finished the map I wanted to record a movie because my solution seemed unintended, but given that DeathWish also said that, I watched his, to find out we did it the same way. Its that last part that feels quirky.
LPChip 7 Dec, 2013 @ 1:46pm 
I played it a second time and now I did everything like DeathWish did too. I first didn't paint everything on the island so I got stuck there and I had no paint, but later I started to get the idea. The end part is really tricky because its mostly based on trial and luck. For instance, during my first ride in the funnel it was out long enough for me to die. When you finally get past, its a question if you can get the last bit done because that too is based on luck. For example, when I got out, my cube was never blue, but it landed on the ledge next to it, still breaking the laser. It could've gone badly, if it didn't do that without me being able to see what happened.

Maybe replace that wall with a glass panel?
Donderbus  [author] 7 Dec, 2013 @ 1:30pm 
je hebt toch niet gespiekt hè LP? Misschien spoiler tags gebruiken als je de oplossing geeft? :P
Het is niet gebaseerd op trial en geluk. ik haal het tot nu toe altijd en ik heb het al vaak gespeeld :) Het laatste gedeelte is bij mij ook nog nooit fout gegaan. De rand van de button kan er wel voor zorgen dat de cube er uit stuiterd. Dit is mij 1 keer gebeurd maar pas na 15 minuten stuiteren, de kans dat dit de oplossing voor je verpest is dus niet heel groot en je kan makkelijk een nieuwe cube pakken. Helaas door gebrek aan Hammer kennis kan ik hier niets aan doen. Jammer dat het op een 1 of ander manier bij jou niet goed deed.
Je kan wel altijd weer terug naar het begin en de kans dat het 2x achter elkaar fout gaat lijkt me erg sterk. Ik zal is kijken voor die wall.

En om op je eerste bericht in te gaan (waarschijnlijk weet je het al) je kan het midden ook blauw maken en weer terug springen.

I trapped myself the same way as donderbus. I painted the angled panel blue and used it to jump to the center, but there was no way for me to get back.
Donderbus  [author] 6 Dec, 2013 @ 11:44pm 
You did everything as you should :)
Nice man!
DeathWish808 6 Dec, 2013 @ 10:38pm 
Dude! That was brutal. I don't feel like I did everything as intended, but whether I did or didn't it's pretty damn tough! After finishing I went back in and you can trap yourself in the center cage with the button. You'd have to have the laser on the funnel/stop gels/start fizzler catcher when you go in. No way out other than noclipping or restarting.

Anyway, very solid map and I'm stumped if I did it unintended. I tried finding alternate solutions and everything I could think of was blocked by a light strip or bad angle, etc. Nicely done!
