too glitchy, usually the door stays closed even after the goo cube bounces away

The name gives the solution away!

end door keeps glitching out when the blue cube touches the button for a fraction of a second. Completed twice, couldn't get it to go glitch.

An entirely new fresh fun experience using old elements of the game. Well done!

Alright! I've beaten all three maps, and I've got to say, they were a nice challenge! Not what I was expecting coming in, but the puzzles were well constructed and difficult, but not frustratingly difficult. Definitely one of those moments where you realise the solution and just think, "I'm such an idiot, how did I not think of that?". A unique map, for sure!

A very good series of maps. Thanks for all your effort, Jeff.

That's quite clever! Well done, nice chamber :steamthumbsup:

Update 6/19/2022:

- Aesthetic update: Small, behind-the-scenes audio update to fix change introduced on 6/4/2022.

Very fun! =)
Rooke 11 Jun, 2022 @ 10:15am 
That was a very clever solution. Kudos! :steamthumbsup:

I immediately thought to myself "I wonder if a bouncing cube will still bounce if it's pushed against a wall by a funnel..." The result was very interesting! I'm surprised I've never seen this done before.

Update 6/4/2022:

- Exploit fixed: Cube respawn pedestal button moved to opposite side of big button. This should make it impossible to reach the fizzler platform in an unintended way that preserved portals. Thanks to SaraSparkette for pointing this out.

- Aesthetic update: Antline from the big button to exit door has had its signage reversed to better portray that the button is working against you. The signage now shows a check mark when the button is not pressed and the exit door is open.

- Aesthetic update: Antline from the big button to exit door has had its antline rerouted to be more aesthetic to the rest of the chamber.

Since I had no idea how to do it, I used CFG (Crouch-fly Glitch) to pass this level
Andy T 30 May, 2022 @ 12:31am 
Easiest run yet, but I appreciate the aesthetics of thanks but no thanks on the gel play.
Resonλnce  [author] 28 May, 2022 @ 5:00pm 
That's completely intended!
CoolDudeClem 28 May, 2022 @ 3:59pm 
Small bug: I couldn't get a portal to form under the gel, but I found another way, I just soaked the cube in gel and then blocked the lazer with the now soaked cube and funnel, then I portalled up on to the ledge and and then had the cube bounce off the button so the exit stays open and i could ride the funnel to the exit. Not sure how much of that is intended but that's what I did.

Hi Noiu, I believe this is a know bug with funnels. I don't think it is something mappers can fix unfortunately, as much as I would like to. Thank you for bringing it to my attention!

Hey, I discovered another unintended path, and a bug I never encounterd before. Here it is on a video:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pi4cMbphFzE

From what I can gather, when you are entering and exiting funnel while there is a portal placed as seen in the video, you have funnel physics for a few seconds, while not being in a funnel. When you jump with those physics, you can reach upper funnel, and get to the button. I don't think it's worth getting rid of this bug in your level, beacause it's still harder to do than the intended way. I just completed the test this way, because I was amazed by the bug, and wanted to check it's limits. I also for some reason didn't think about the intended way lol

Simple and wholesome, the three of them. Nice job!
Sherman VB 25 May, 2022 @ 6:23pm 
Played through this series, it's easy but also pretty clever, much enjoyed
quatrus 25 May, 2022 @ 4:52pm 
Very easy - thanks for creating.
Techowl 25 May, 2022 @ 11:29am 
This one is a lot easier than you might think.

It is amazing how often the cube bounces through the middle of a room.

Nice chamber though.

Sparkette 25 May, 2022 @ 9:28am 
I found what I think is the intended solution and it's much simpler: I simply rode the funnel up to the platform while carrying the cube with me, then set up the portals to have the cube block the laser, and placed the cube inside the funnel . Since the unintended solution I found is arguably more complicated and difficult to pull off, my opinion is that you should leave the test chamber as it is. Like what the Portal 1 dev team did in test chamber 14, if you've listened to the commentary.
Resonλnce  [author] 25 May, 2022 @ 8:14am 
Joe, could you elaborate? The bounce should be working every time.
dcook 25 May, 2022 @ 5:03am 
easiest one of the 3 :-)
Resonλnce  [author] 25 May, 2022 @ 4:52am 
Hi flarn, that isn't the intended solution! I will investigate that. Any way you could record a video of this exploit?
Sparkette 24 May, 2022 @ 7:52pm 
Does the intended solution involve putting the cube in the funnel so it blocks the laser , then pressing the button to respawn the cube and immediately portaling up to the platform before the fizzler reappears ? That's how I did it, but the timing was really tight and required several tries, so I feel like that might not have been intended. Is there another solution I should look for?
joe98 24 May, 2022 @ 6:06pm 
I had some luck as the first two attempts the cube bounced the wrong way but on the 3rd attempt it bounced the right way and I got out.
mythers45 23 May, 2022 @ 7:09pm 
"Hey, why is that button the wrong way around? All I have to do now is move the funnel and- oh." -Me while solving this, as the cube drops onto the button and locks the door

Never really expected so many applications of the repulsion gel cubes. Great series
