Again, a nice concept but this time... not really well done! I kinda liked the partto get the orange gel but then this lightbridge-bouncing-through-a-portal thing was just annoying! also to get the cube bounce off the button was just time consuming, nothing else... But nevertheless, it was again a good map! 7/10

Now this was a challenge. Uses my ideas too, but I'm cool with that. I was expecting something more complicated but wasn't dissappointed with what I got. Rembember I can jump a rampless level gap of 4 wide with just orange gel. It wouldn't affect much in this map, but something I noticed. My map "Hop'n'Bounce" shows that. Good job!

Ah, that would explain a lot... "Ivo" in "1337speak"
Kinda looked like some kind of face to me :P

Yes, russian names end on "-ov", but I'm Bulgarian. Bulgaria's another slavian country, so names end on "-ov" here too.

lol, i wouldn't think of it. If anything id think |\_/() (no spaces) but it doesn't really matter cause it's your name anyway. :p
Pavlov, is that Russian? It seems Russian to me.

Ivo Pavlov is my real name. I can't imagine how wierd it may sound to someone from the USA or the UK, but I like it - Ivo is a short, simple and quite a nice name, so I kept it as my steam name, but wrote it more interestingly.

(and just don't say that it must be | \/ () , not | \_/ () , I've had enough of that.)
TS_Mind_Swept 29 Oct, 2014 @ 12:07pm 
what does | \_/ () mean by the way? i cant seem to figure it out. @.@

i dont remember, i just know that it was one of the best maps ive played, i may have even given it a 10. :D

Thanks! which of BEN77's maps are you talking about btw?
TS_Mind_Swept 28 Oct, 2014 @ 8:35pm 
that was pretty good, too much fast bouncing for my liking (make the walls/LB one more square appart) but the overall solution was good, I guess everyone like what Ben77 did on that one map. :p 7/10

Yep, that fixed it.

Thanks for the info. It's fixed by adding another blue gel-giving fizzler on the other side. I don't think that'll affect the intentional sollution, so it's bug-free from now on...I hope.

The player can get trapped because of the free-standing paint activator on the ground: cover the blue bridge in blue gel, deactivate the paint gun, and get over to the other side. They player can't do anything then.

Other than that, great test! :citranium:

I know you maps are so good and you must think how to solve the tests, i wanted same on my maps but actually im not sure if my maps are just hard because you need much skill or because you need think, if you have some time to try some of my maps and explain me that problem I will be grateful ty https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/profiles/76561198012466001/myworkshopfiles/?appid=280740
