Excellent map! I really like the use of the funnel — as a restriction to force the first sequence, and for that move . Really interesting that many ideas from Covert remain but are forced in a different way (at least I think they are; my memory may be a bit inaccurate). Faved

Really fun map! I had a little spoiler that I remembered seeing some comment about funneling a cube to block a laser, or to angle a laser into something, but I wasn't sure if I could be remembering correctly because that sounded weird and I couldn't see where it would be helpful here. So my mind was already looking in that direction, but I was pleasantly surprised by how beautifully it was incorporated. I recorded a blindrun to test out the Steam recordings feature: https://youtu.be/CpyTqMU1U9E (It starts like two minutes into my run but all I had done was look at the layout and how to get out of the entrance arrea). Big thumbs up!

It's crazy, I can see how Covert inspired this but it's still such a different beast. This was truly magnificent. I love funneling the cube into the laser area. It's execution is unique and just feels so good to preform. Oddly enough, it minds me of Hold My Hand's move. For me this is a good balance of creative moves and very intensive, dense logic. I am in love with this one man, truly special. Faved!

I got off to a quick start on this map, and after some thought I also figured out the (relatively lengthy) ending sequence. I knew that I had to connect the red cube dropper area with the entrance area via portals, but realising that funneling the cube into the laser would be the thing to make it work took me FOREVER to see. You could have thrown in that move in an easier map and it would have been cool on its own, but the fact that you managed to incorporate it in such an elaborate puzzle to allow a VERY subtle but key puzzle state is just insane, no idea how you did it. Best map I've played in a long time.

Не почувствовал... извилин у себя в мозгу

This puzzle stuck me for a long time, very clever, excellent puzzle.

Omg, what a map! So many small beautiful sequences and they all come together nicely. Amazing work

Very great puzzle, I agree with all previous positive comments. Super clean design for so many clever moves. Big thumbs up!

Ah man, it took me an embarrassingly long time to realize I needed both cubes up above the entrance, and then some more to see the funnel move. Outstanding puzzle, favorited!

Super cool puzzle!! I was able to solve the first half of the puzzle to where I had both cubes inside the laser area and was free to play around. Then I worked backwards from the exit condition and figured out the exact places I needed each cube, and I was then left thinking for a few minutes until I spotted the key move. Really inventive! While I had deduced the respawn near the end of the solution, I was surprised to figure out that I needed one for the middle too! It's kind of funny seeing this sort of super-clean layout facilitate a more "wacky" move :) Great work!

This one was on the hard end of the scale for me. Took me forever to realize that I needed to funnel the cubes to where I needed them . Nice puzzle!

Oh wow ! This one was tricky but I got it in the end
Great puzzle Favorited !

Easy to get completely off track and then unsolvable - got the elevator down but couldn't get the laser cube off elevator catcher - needed a portalable surface. had to start over and try a different more complex route. Thanks for creating but I failed.

If this one was inspired by Covert,that means they have similar cube handling , which might give me some clues, although I haven't solved it yet.Anyway,both great!

Excellent puzzle and cool portal arrangement,I just too noooob,I overlooked that step was actually the exchange of cubes. I didn't even realize that,my bad. And after that,the rest went quickly,!Thanks for creating,very good job,big thumbs up!

Really nice map! The hardest part for me to figure out was funneling the cube onto the laser. After that it all went smoothly.

really great map and really enjoyable was stuck alot but after getting both cubes out it went really smoothly ;)

@jandlml Thanks so much for playing! Sorry to make you lose sleep over it but I'm glad you stuck with it to the end. I appreciate the kind words and am glad you enjoyed it.

what a great map!! at 2:30 this morning i was thinking about all the things i had tried and finally i started thinking about the two elements i hadnt tried together and it slowly came to me,at least i thought it had. i finally got back on this afternoon and realized i hadnt thought far enough but i finally managed to figure it out. This is one of those great maps where the portal surfaces are placed just right, the design is excellent, and you really have to think. thumbs way up,faved and awarded!!

@nerdlingnation Nice! This map was in my head all day, my brain is so wrinkled right now . A really great puzzle with a clever solution, keep up the good work!

@可砸 your second screenshot shows a helpful state
@SpiderLucas15 great job sticking with this one; that solution is all intended.

I think I finally found it (emphasis on I think )

Any hints or suggestions?I didn't see the relevance between my two screenshots.

The ultimate goal is to bring out both cubes and the laser?Should I adjust the cube position and keep the two sides connected (not use funnel)?

@jandlml yep. one of those will help you.

https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2971883220

are either of these correct for my next step?https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2971882861

@jandlml correct

but no flipping the cube on its back or on its front. not that i found it works towards completion

ok thanks

@jandlml Your deduction about the ending is correct. For a small hint: try examining all laser and cube chains that help you open the fizzler

i am just so stuck. first let me make sure i am trying to get the right thing here in order to set the map up to get to the door i have been trying to get both cubes and the laser out of the laser room. is this right? either way i think i need a hint. tiny if possible

@nerdlingnation Oh, you right, my bad

@jandlml glad it's giving you a challenge. Stick with it and feel free to ask for hints if needed!

i think i know the positions for the cubes for the finish but i have no idea how to get them there

@SpiderLucas15, that's not a solution. did you try exiting?

I found another unintended solution (or at least I think it is)
https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2971516571

well i definitely think its hard. this is as far as i have gotten. totally stuck. https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2971514402 and because you have said in your description no cubes on their backs i cant figure out where to go from here. hmmm

Correction with the difficulty, it was "dead easy" for me. Just enable the funnel and CFG to the exit . /sarcasm (It was a great puzzle ngl, no need for correction for the difficulty)

@nerdlingnation Ok, got it. I'm going to keep looking for the actual solution

@SpiderLucas15 that is indeed unintended. The solution does not use angled lasers through portals. I'll add a note to the description.

I came up with this solution , but I'm not sure if it was the intended one

Fun and creative map with a cute design.
