Nice map! Took me longer than it should have haha

nice portal management

Amazing puzzle. It was incredible how subtle the sequence that ended with the change of one portal surface was - only placing the cube in the correct position later was a really cool move.
Faved!

took me a second, but i got there!

This puzzle actively works against the human brain's need for instant gratification. , Faved!

This was a tough one, had me busy for couple of days. On a hindsight, the solution seems obvious but it definitely wasn't. Thanks for the challenge! :)

when you overcomplicate a map for 1,5 years lol
finally solved it and really enjoyed it :)

Mr Fab 14 Aug, 2021 @ 12:05am

Great small map and smart puzzle ! Took me a bit to beat it too.

bullfrog 14 Jun, 2021 @ 1:42am

Still a brilliant puzzle :)

Andy T 14 Jun, 2021 @ 12:25am

This is a tough/should be easy one I chocked at the Reflective at the button bending laser part, that's about the halfway point now I look back. nicely done

Aneonen 19 May, 2021 @ 10:04pm

Nice puzzle! I liked how I needed to be patient and not drop the cube on the button too early

nock 12 May, 2021 @ 8:22am

This is an easy map, we'll breeze right throu . . .

@jandlml, thanks for playing and commenting! I really do appreciate it :)

jandlml 7 Nov, 2020 @ 8:55pm

excellent! at first i thought oh no! another one of these maps, ive been struggling on enigmatics map for two days. so it was like yay! i found the solution.

camerson1313 28 Aug, 2020 @ 2:53pm

This was a great on/off puzzle. We knew the ending setup pretty early on, but in trying to reach that state kept repeating the same mistake over and over, not knowing what it was. Managed 2 different ways of cube-throwing , as well as the intended way. Our playthrough .

SteemStream [author] 30 Jul, 2020 @ 3:21pm

@Leomievs that does seem to be the whole crux of the puzzle :p

Leo 30 Jul, 2020 @ 1:51pm

Great little puzzle with a creative and clever setup! I had the right idea for a few minutes to get a portal on the laser surface, but I had my other portal at the wrong place. The aha moment was quite nice. Excellent work!

Narkodes 30 Jul, 2020 @ 5:23am

Nice map!

bullfrog 29 Jul, 2020 @ 2:01am

Brilliant puzzle and I'm with @Joric. It took me long enough to get to the point where I was stood on the lowered piston platform, and then far long than it should have to see how to exit! Thumbs up and added to favourites.

Reika 24 Jul, 2020 @ 9:19pm

Also, this took me a lot longer than it needed to, only because I had no idea what was different between blue and yellow portal buttons, and thus assumed I needed to get the cube onto the blue one.

Reika 24 Jul, 2020 @ 9:07pm

I really cannot say that this looks good: https://i.imgur.com/QqT3Q3l.jpg

Very nice map. Lots of steps with minimal connections. Big thumbs up.

Psychological Atom 17 Jul, 2020 @ 9:04pm

Very awesome map indeed. It took me less than 30 minutes to figure out and I realized the only way to solve this is shooting the correct portal that will lead you to the exit . :)

SteemStream [author] 17 Jul, 2020 @ 11:37am

Damn, I guess I need to stop doubting myself with the difficulty of some maps. I suppose even I thought two cubes were required to make the solution work for quite a while.

SpKi 17 Jul, 2020 @ 8:54am

Really good! I was missing a move in the middle for quite a while but I got there in the end. I agree with Mikeastro that it's easy-medium difficulty, though it's more on the medium side imo :p As usual, you managed to create an elegant and clever solution with very few elements and portal surfaces. Big thumbs up!

Teo 17 Jul, 2020 @ 7:47am

Awesome puzzle; that last sequence is surprisingly hard to see. Such a small layout with such a precise and punishing solution. Great work

BehindPortal 17 Jul, 2020 @ 6:58am

OMG in start map looks simple, but so much logic involved. took more than hour .

fav

Mikeastro 17 Jul, 2020 @ 5:29am

Super, super cool map. Maybe @Joric was having a bad day as it took me just shy of 15 minutes to solve. I'd say it is easy-medium difficulty, but the logic is very nice indeed. Reminds me of Back in Style by Hanky. Fantastic work, huge thumbs up :D

Joric 17 Jul, 2020 @ 4:23am

My playthrough (1 minute): https://youtu.be/d7HOw-J2E78 That really took more than an hour. The concept of NOT doing something when it's right there is the very definition of logic. Added to the best map(s) of all time collection.
