Thanks.

I made this chamber so long ago I'm not sure if I remember the solution.

Good grief, Andi! That chamber with the flip panel in the ceiling gave me fits. Another great challenge from your workshop.

Thanks for testing.

Like ɹəʇsɐɯlɐʇɹ0d , did not look at exit door signage and so, at first, no way to get that door to open. Then, I started counting. What a relief!
Andi  [author] 2 Sep, 2014 @ 11:55am 
Thanks. I GLaD you liked it.

Another nice test; for a moment I thought I needed to light up all the laser relays to exit, even it turns out I wasn't paying attention to the signage :P Nothing to worry about though :p2cube: I was however able to press the button through the fizzler in the lower room, which may have been unintended.

oh yeah I just downloaded them in a random order lol.
Andi  [author] 11 Jul, 2014 @ 10:36am 
You only need to light 2 laser triggers to open the door on the left of the entrance. The second room is very hard... a fling I first saw in the original Portal, actually, this chamber is one of my hardest. If you start with my oldest chamber, it's fairly easy and it gets harder as you go.

I think I need to make a series of chambers that teach the player how to solve them easier instead of thrusting them into chambers like this, sorry.
TheAireaidLord 10 Jul, 2014 @ 7:55pm 
uh first room? with the lasers. Is that possible? there's nowhere to go and nothing to do? huh? No combination of lasers does anything? maybe a flaw with the linked laser things i think.
Andi  [author] 24 Feb, 2014 @ 12:48pm 
I'm GLaD that you like it so much... thanks for playing.

The cube in the first room goes back to a old Portal 1 trick. Stand next to the edge of the ledge and put a portal at your feet. Then jump off the ledge and place the opposite portal on the floor of the pit (your head will bump into the ceiling). You should now be in puerperal fall (coming out of one portal then gravity takes hold and pulls you back again… over and over). As you come through the portal at the edge of the ledge, situate yourself and move over so you will fall through the portal on the floor of the pit. But before you fall through that portal, place a portal (the one you just came out of) on the pit floor. You should now have enough momentum to reach the taller ledge.

IM SORRY HOW DO YA DO THE FIRST PART

Thanks for playing.

Very fun I got confused on what to do at the second room but what is Portal without challenges
Andi  [author] 17 Feb, 2014 @ 7:59am 
Thanks for playing, I’m pleased that you liked it. I never thought that first room would cause so many problems. I’m never going to that try trick again. This chamber didn’t play as smoothly as I would have liked but I have several chambers about ready to go… one of them addresses the issue with the jump in the second room.
snaptun accent 17 Feb, 2014 @ 6:19am 
I really think this level looks fun. I will try it Andi :-)
Jacob Hertz Da Deer 16 Feb, 2014 @ 11:28pm 
HOLLY SNAP THATS HARD GOOD JOB EVEN I COULDNT FINISH

This game did not cooperate with me from the beginning. The lasers were the only thing I didn't have trouble with. Jumping the pit for the cube was a nightmare. I did it exactly as you described and still wasn't high enough. A dozen tries later I tried another trick and it worked sorta. I got to the blue gel and could not see a way to get it to the opening. After dragging the cube back and forth a dozen times I just aimed for the window and jumped off the top of it. The faith plate would not put me through the portal and the switch you have on the funnel never activated. I eventually figured out to crouch when i jump and made it. Still no funnel. I noclipped around the room until I activated the funnel and jumped again. Needed to go get some gel in order to reach the funnel. After that it was smooth sailing except I had to retrieve the cube over the pit again. Don't know why it respawned. Had no trouble with the jump this time? Thumbs up.
Andi  [author] 15 Feb, 2014 @ 9:14am 
Thank you, I would be happy to try your chamber.
daloboy 15 Feb, 2014 @ 9:02am 
Wow! Really nice one! Loved the way the rooms were linked! And the signages were quite helpfull!
Here's one of mine . Thanks.
Andi  [author] 12 Feb, 2014 @ 7:02pm 
Thank you very much. Live long and prosper.
Tactical Shrubbery 12 Feb, 2014 @ 3:40pm 
Very well done. This chamber has more logic than a Vulcan mathematician.
Andi  [author] 12 Feb, 2014 @ 11:19am 
Thanks for the comments.

@Faidh I will try your chamber, thanks.
Mitch McWiggins 11 Feb, 2014 @ 8:16pm 
Good one, thanks. It was a relief to find that I only needed to light up 7 of the 9 relays to get out!
Lord Ethcaz 10 Feb, 2014 @ 2:12pm 
Hey man, this one's sick. Need to give it another shot one of these days, but it seemed impossible to get onto that first ledge.

And er, I just finished a new puzzle: 'Dr. K. Raisy: Binary Vault'. Give it a shot if you're looking for something different, it's not too difficult, but it should be fun :)
Also, if you have a mate to play with, try my 'Dr. K. Raisy: Cube'
Andi  [author] 9 Feb, 2014 @ 7:01pm 
Thanks for the comments and for playing.

@dok Sorry this wasn't to your liking but thanks for the input. Your advice is duly noted.
dok 9 Feb, 2014 @ 3:26pm 
Sorry, but I find maps that require such precise timing and position frustrating re first side chamber.
barutan39 [ jp ] 9 Feb, 2014 @ 3:56am 
The place which takes the first mirror was somewhat difficult.
Although he noticed how to take, a technique did not work.
It was also able to be enjoyed that the place which takes the mirror of the 2nd also considers the pleasant difficulty.
Andi  [author] 8 Feb, 2014 @ 9:08am 
@Halo I never tried hammer. Heard about it... a lot... but I never tried it. I think it's time for me to expand.

@liminall The cube in the first room goes back to a old Portal 1 trick. Look at my comment on the top of the third page. It is a long comment that is blacked out.
Prokop 8 Feb, 2014 @ 7:40am 
I'm tring this map for 30minutes and.... I'm sorry but I can't do it. I don't say "It's impossible" but I can't collect the second cube from 1. room. :life:

@YouOtterBelieveIt: How bout with hammer?

Andi  [author] 7 Feb, 2014 @ 4:42pm 
They must have fixed the issues,

The new BEEmod works quite well
i have been designing more maps with Bee2....
Works like a dream
Andi  [author] 7 Feb, 2014 @ 9:04am 
Thanks for playing, I will try our chambers too.

@temporarymanwastaken Very intenvtive

nice puzzle. when I saw so many shape signs around the exit I remembered my
many-puzzles-in-one chamber (a BEEMOD test). try it out: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=140321285
Wilhelm 6 Feb, 2014 @ 12:55pm 
I got kinda inspired by your map Andi so i made a new chamber if you would like to try :)

I jumped from the windowsill.

Thank you all very much, I'm happy to hear the you liked it.
<{Reece}> 6 Feb, 2014 @ 7:59am 
pretty sweet
Bujm 6 Feb, 2014 @ 2:36am 
Yes, thanks for the advice how to get to the cube. I played in the first portal and I know how, but jump out of portal and move in the air that fly in another portal I can on a small a distance. If she had not fought against the ceiling I could navigate in space and fly into another portal. It is the fault of my hands. But I will definitely be back to this card because your other cards I loved.
Ettin 6 Feb, 2014 @ 2:26am 
Hey! I gave it another go and I got it, I was dumb and assuming there was a problem with the door because I couldn't see the tick box behind it. Making the panels glass was a great idea, I managed to solve it instead of dicking around with the door after that. The next few parts were pretty fun, you have my thumbs up!
Andi  [author] 6 Feb, 2014 @ 1:12am 
Look at my third to last comment. It tells you how to get to the cube.
Bujm 6 Feb, 2014 @ 1:10am 
It would be much easier if she had not hit her head on the ceiling. Yes, and I think I hurt her.
Bujm 6 Feb, 2014 @ 1:00am 
opened the first door, but take it a cube could not. Spent 40 minutes on that to depart and fly into the portals. I think this game is to think and not to train for exactlywhat jump. I'm just out of the portal in the portal can not jump. I'm upset. Map apparently good, but for me due to impassable above: (
Andi  [author] 5 Feb, 2014 @ 10:35pm 
Thanks for playing. You didn’t use the gel at all? It should be impossible. You can complete the part of the room next to the funnel without the gel but to enter the room with the funnel should impossible. You can’t jump that high without the gel. How did you do it?
󰀉tempeh󰀉 5 Feb, 2014 @ 6:26pm 
Got the first room with the white floor easy, but the blue gel? I still don't know how it's supposed to be done. Got past it anyway, it was easier without the gel. But I don't even know where to begin with that one. It needs to be communicated more clearly, some subtle hint or something, although that's probably impossible now due to the item limit. Well... you could save 27 items by rotating the tall fizzlers so they anchor on the floor and ceiling instead of the walls, maybe?
Andi  [author] 5 Feb, 2014 @ 5:24pm 
I will have to look at that again. I are correct, four portals if you are arrcurate. I'm not very arrcurate.
Wilhelm 5 Feb, 2014 @ 3:29pm 
U could just move down the movable wall 1 step to fix that problem tho :)
And btw, i didnt do what u just explained in the first room, i managed to get over with just 4 portals :)
