Melted my brain … hope it melted yours too when you created this fantastic map!

Really clean logic, favourited!

@UNDEFEAT Ahh i tguess you're right i didnt see that laser hit the relay, but i still think its fine because its difficult to execute and most players will just assume thats unintended. Thank you for informing me of that tho

@Khan you can get to the state on the screenshot very quickly and from that you just go through the portal, shoot orange anywhere, stand on the platform, shoot orange back where it was -> completed.

Maybe you meant, that getting to that state is almost the whole puzzle... I actually didn't analyze it fully, I just checked random youtube video after solving the puzzle, and it looked much more complicated (and longer) than what I did. That's why I said what I said.

@Mattchew Ah, thanks man. This map is probably my most deceptive puzzle so far so i can see why you got stuck. Even experienced players had a hard time with this puzzle like Mevious and HugoBDesigner. So yeah, being able to even solve this one when you're a beginner must be difficult. Anyways, thank you for the kind words.

This map was the first one I've Favorited. I played this when I was new, so it completely decimated me. Struggled very hard haha. I replayed this again after a year+, I gotta say this is such a beautiful level. Its all so clever and clean, such a genius cube re-spawn.

Really happy this is the first thing I've Faved, I was even thinking of re-faving it honestly. Thank you for making. This map had a big impact on how I solve and make maps.

@UNDEFEAT i dont really see how that skips the puzzle and i usually dont bother avoiding angled lasers through portals since a lot of people here know thats unintended. And even if i wanted to change the map now, i cant because i lost the map files :/

@isforshooting Thank you! I didnt know people were still playing this map :)

Great Map!

Loved it!

You can simply skip almost all the map shenanigans by doing this:

Good one! I, stupidly, thought I had it pretty quickly. WRONG! LOL. I could see what needed to happen, but I started double-guessing myself and well... the video speaks for itself. haha!

Well, it only took me days to finally figure out what to do. I think I tried everything possible before the 'ah-ha' hit. Thanks for an excellent brain-exerciser.

Nice pure logic puzzle. Solved it with the same method as @ArizonaRunner. I'm suggesting replacing the pit with a goo. Otherwise people might think that these surfaces are part of the solution (as I did). Also, it would be nice to visually separate non-portal-magnet surfaces from portal-magnet surfaces.

very clever I didn't know that you could use the cube respawn mechanic in order to get portals where you want them. I was stuck thinking that I can't move the portal in which the laser is going to but I can. I will definitely play it again to exercise my mind again.

For a chamber within RedSilencer's "introduction to workshop" collection, even if it IS one of the last ones in the list, this felt utterly devious. Wrangled myself in circles with all kinds of back-and-forth shenanigans until I was eventually able to finish and I'm really not sure I'd remember the solution without mistakes if I had to replay!

Really tricky for such a small map... and congrats on the "anti-shortcut" slanted floor, you knew I would try that!! :D
Khan  [author] 13 Aug, 2023 @ 5:08am 
@ArizonaRunner alright i fixed it (hopefully)
Khan  [author] 13 Aug, 2023 @ 1:03am 
@ArizonaRunner yeah thats what i was talking about at the end of the description. Let me see if i can fix that.
ArizonaRunner 12 Aug, 2023 @ 11:27pm 
I cheated. Starting from slanted panel area. Slowly backed up in squat position with cube while focusing laser on the laser catcher to keep fizzler disabled. Thus, reaching the button with the cube. Hey, difficult maps require difficult decisions.
SunnyOst 6 Aug, 2023 @ 3:46am 
That was it. Easy favorite now :steamthumbsup: :cleancake:
Khan  [author] 5 Aug, 2023 @ 11:36pm 
@SunnyOst alright well, if you were referring to the unintended solution i was thinking of, it should be fixed right now. If not i would like to see a screenshot.
Khan  [author] 5 Aug, 2023 @ 11:16pm 
@SunnyOst can you send a video or screenshot of what you did, because what i'm talking about definitely feels unintended.
SunnyOst 5 Aug, 2023 @ 10:11am 
Idk, I wouldn't call the angled solution "obviously unintended". In fact, the walls and receiver seem to be perfectly skewed to accommodate it, a little portal correction and it's done. I guess it's more for aesthetic reasons, but it almost feels intentional. Would be the simplest fix too 🤷‍♂️

Finally got around to finishing this terrific map! Excellent and thank you! :steamthumbsup::p2cube:
Denis [Rus] 19 Jul, 2023 @ 11:31pm 
Отличная карта! :okey:
Khan  [author] 29 Apr, 2023 @ 12:13pm 
@hub thanks
hub 28 Apr, 2023 @ 3:46am 
:cupup: Cool map! :vote_yes:
Khan  [author] 13 Mar, 2023 @ 12:59am 
@Solinoxia Yes i know that weird angle solution but i am not even gonna fix it because its very obvious that its unintended, its also difficult to do lol congrats for doing it. Thanks for playing.
Solinoxia 10 Mar, 2023 @ 10:24am 
This one defeated me. I was eventually able to "solve" it by using a very dodgy angle but that was clearly unintended. After checking the solution I played through it a couple of times and it's a very well designed puzzle. Added to my favorites for future me.
Khan  [author] 27 Feb, 2023 @ 1:02am 
@kokoapadoa yep you're right this is harder than 2.5 i actually forgot to change that in description thanks for reminding me.
bird daughter 26 Feb, 2023 @ 1:12am 
either i have a hard time thinking ahead or this isn't a 2.5/10 puzzle.
it's probably the former but i did get frustrated at this puzzle (and it was like, the first of two chambers i wanted to play today)
still a great chamber, there are a surprising amount of steps involved.
Khan  [author] 16 Feb, 2023 @ 1:24am 
@G4lvatron Thank you and yes, this one's kinda devious in terms of simplicity.
G4lvatron 15 Feb, 2023 @ 11:04pm 
Its easy to look at this puzzle for the first time and assume it would be fairly simple. There was a lot more to this puzzle though, very good.
horse 21 Nov, 2022 @ 4:16pm 
Very nice puzzle!
bullfrog 13 Nov, 2022 @ 10:39pm 
Great to play this brilliant puzzle again and it probably took me as long as the first time. I have no idea why I didn't add it to my favourites when I played it at the beginning of this year, so another :steamthumbsup: and now also added to favourites.
EloniBaloni 11 Oct, 2022 @ 9:58am 
Super fun and very smart moves! Keep making Chambers!

what a clever puzzle. took me time to think. i really like simplicity of layout with sneaky execution. :steamthumbsup:fav:p2cube:
Teo 15 Jul, 2022 @ 4:15pm 
Really frickin clever
Talisac 6 Jul, 2022 @ 11:18pm 
Simple layout, sneaky puzzle, good job!
Mevious 4 Mar, 2022 @ 7:42am 
It took me a while, but I finally beat this one after the stream. Great puzzle! Added to favorites.
jandlml 21 Feb, 2022 @ 7:34pm 
excellent map!!
DiDo Killer! 19 Feb, 2022 @ 3:53pm 
Extremely good puzzle with such clever laser logic. Took me a while to spot the solution. Favorited.
Mr Fab 7 Feb, 2022 @ 1:09am 
Good laser puzzle with great logic :steamthumbsup:
klaus.sfc01 21 Jan, 2022 @ 8:21am 
good puzzle the final version really added alot to what we had as bare bones concept in the collab
Aneonen 16 Jan, 2022 @ 8:50pm 
Nice puzzle! Over-complicated a few things, such as the method of using the lift, so it was quite satisfying to find the right sequence.
Khan  [author] 15 Jan, 2022 @ 9:07am 
@Mikeastro actually yeah you might be right im changing the description and thanks!
Khan  [author] 15 Jan, 2022 @ 9:06am 
@Narkodes umm what do you mean and how do i change the url do i have to make
the whole map again
Mikeastro 15 Jan, 2022 @ 7:26am 
Pretty complex laser puzzle given such a simple layout. I agree with the others that the difficulty stated in the description is very deceptive. Very nice map, though. Big thumbs up :D
Khan  [author] 14 Jan, 2022 @ 9:37am 
@bullfrog yep,all intended. :steamthumbsup:
bullfrog 14 Jan, 2022 @ 12:47am 
@Khan; OK, your video shows the solution to an older version, but I think what I did was as you intended - is that correct?
bullfrog 14 Jan, 2022 @ 12:43am 
Really good logic puzzle, definite thumbs up. This is the way I solved it - now time to look at your video.
