@mentallentil, ha, thanks for checking out this collection! Puzzles are not very deep. More gimmick-heavy

Fun puzzle! Ending up in the observation room to retrieve the disc was a welcome surprise.

@Solinixia, thanks! I wasn't expecting anyone new to discover this series!

Clever. Getting the portal device was pretty straightforward but it took me a bit before my brain understood how to make use of the timing mechanic. Also nice job with the design. I recognize all the BEEMod bits and bobs and you combined them nicely.

@SHOOD, thanks for playing! It's not much of a tutorial since all the following chambers in the series are very different/easier. The discs are optional by the way. I hope you check out the other naps in TUBER anyway!

The tutorial got hands. Blind run https://youtu.be/-Ax4hyidGnA

@Deathwish808, thanks!

Nice!

No problem. A lot of map makers (myself included) have done obscure moves. That move could be made less obscure, I think, with signage maybe. Just not quite sure how to go about that - it might turn the problem from being obscure to overly complicated.

Oh, yeah. I plan on going thru all of the maps in that collection. I'm trying to expand my mental horizons. I just hope I don't get a fat head. 😮

@Rooke, thanks for playing! I'm sorry it was a bit too obscure. I promise that most of the other TUBER maps are easier (I hope) but obscure moves are kind of my thing. I hope you try the other maps in the series!

Been playing this for about 6 hours, and out of frustration had to watch the walk-through. I've never seen that particular timing mechanic used to get a portal on the other side of a fizzler.
Thank you for showing me something I didn't know about.
But I did figure out how to get the optional disc taken care of.

@v0rtex2002 Thank you! I remember playing some of your maps! they were great too!

Great puzzle. Am embarrassed by how long it took me to catch on! Thanks for creating!

@spaceminnow, FYI cube-throwing is never intended in my maps. I follow the "in-line" rule for portal placement, so if the long edge of the portal is perpendicular to the long edge of the white surface, it won't take. The orientations need to match

Already solved it...no need for the solution video :)
On to the next...

@spaceminnow, if you relied on cube throwing (not intended) to obtain the dual portal gun, how did you get the cube on the exit button? The intended method for that later step is a repeat of what is intended for the first part. Pay close attention to the timed delay in the cube drop and what happens when something "unpresses" the portal button.

all of my maps have solution videos if you need to see them

On my first attempt I didn't find any other way...

I threw the cube onto the button...

Then...got the dual portal gun...

Got out ok with the potato gun too :)

Just to let you know...My character can throw about 3 to 3.5 meters...

I then did it many times trying to understand the proper way...
Not being able to place a portal on the upper panel from an "angle" confused me...
I wanted to build a good understanding of this one before continuing with the others.

@Hovering Heavy,
Then i hope you like this series!

I love portal maps with easter eggs

Absolutely! Great map with just the right difficulty!

@derPacifist, does that mean you solved it and liked it? It is pretty difficult for a map with "tutorial" in the name!

Wow, I had no idea! Unfortunately for me, this is not really a step by step tutorial but more a physicist simulation. First thought the second orange portal would be stable, but it doesn't get a continuous activation by the buttton.

@Vik, thanks! I hope you find the secrets in every map of the TUBER series!

Great map!

I did, yes.
And don’t worry, I’ll happily try them out ;)

@| \_/ () , Thanks! Did you get the bonus potato ? i hope you enjoy the rest of the TUNER maps!

Good puzzle

@jandlml, it is probably the worst tutorial in the history of tutorials because the mechanic is not really used again. I still hope you check out the other maps. Thank you for subscribing and commenting!

had to watch the walkthru. im not sure why it didnt work until i watched i thought i was doing what the walkthru showed but must not have been . i think its going to take a bit of playing for me to get the concept. excellent!

oh boy im stuck on the tutorial . i got the disk . i cant get it out of the one area. but also i cant get the cube on the button to open the door i have both portal makers

ok i subscribed to all of the maps in this series. let me get to them

@Nobody No-One,
Thank you for checking this series out! I am quite pleased with this one, I wish the rest of the maps were of it's caliber!

Nice map! I agree with Demon Arisen, it's a very clever use of the autoportals, both before (nice use of portal orientation with that ceiling surface) and after (I loved the various cube respawns you do to get an autoportal to reappear) you get the portal gun. Great stuff!

@Demon Arisen,
Thanks! Kind of a self pat-on-the-back since it was your map Amber that inspired the cleverness! Thanks for checking out!

oooh this was really good! Possibly the cleverest use of auto-portals I've seen yet, very unique -- and I enjoyed rescuing the disc :) Thumbs up and faved!

Thank you @Богомдан! The disk is a bonus activity. If you find the disc and insert it into the reader, you get a potato gun! . Please check out the other maps in the TUBER series! Thanks for playing!

When I saw the single-port gun, I thought this test would be very simple. How wrong I was... Wonderful map! And by the way, what is the disk for?

@Andy T,
Thanks for checking it out!

Interesting game dynamic, never thought of auto-portal co-exist with dual portal gun.

@asd417,
Thanks for playing and commenting!

Another clever map

@Jade BGE,
My first attempt at implementing monoportals into any of my maps. It looks simple, and once you know what to do it isn't so hard, but still a steeper difficulty than I should have gone for in an introductory map! Personally not a fan of timers, so I tried to use them sparingly in the series. Thanks for playing!

Very thoughtful. I need more practice with such concepts. I'm not very good at it.

@PDX,
Thank you!

Interesting how the mechanics change depending on if you have a mono or dual portal gun. Nice puzzle!

@TCJ, whooo! thank you, will watch soon!

1-3 <-- Blind playthrough as requested

@Dolphiner,
Thank you! My vision for the TUBER collection changed a lot during its development. This test was almost a throw-away tutorial until I thought that it really needs to be a puzzle just like every other entry in the collection. Glad it paid off & you liked it. The rest are dual portal puzzles, but hopefully not too easy for you!

Excellently designed, I really appreciate that you still incorporated an actual puzzle rather than presenting a bare-bones tutorial.

@Azra,
Thank you for playing! As an introductory map to the TUBER series and my first mono-portal map, I wanted it to be tricky, but not too hard. I hope I struck that balance. Please check out the 9 other maps in the TUBER series (and look for secrets!)
