Overall pretty fun, but I had trouble with the part where you fling yourself through an infinite loop, while shooting another portal so you can fling yourself up in the main room. Felt the timing for that was a little too tight. Great job on this one though!

It's a nice hard casual, although you did make a common mistake where Conv Gel gets everywhere; So the angle panel ended up not necessary.

Where there is conversion gel, there is a way. I managed to physically push the conversion gel with my body to get it under the exit area. I then used momentum to get myself higher above the momentum floor to get more momentum and used it to get the cube. I also managed to get conversion gel in a place reachable from the conversion gel room so I did not have to keep doing the same thing over and over again.

Too bad it has become this tedious, since it's a good portal gel map.
Never mind, take my thumbs up.

"I decided to keep it simple and enjoyable rather than tedious and frustrating"--great words to live by as a puzzle designer. Really good conversion gel map!. And the flings were not as straight forward as I first thought! :steamthumbsup:

Interesting challenge.

Brilliant puzzle, although it was tedious having to repeat the same trick to get back to the gel button.

Wow. Wash-rinse-repeat...I certainly got good at repeating one set of moves:steamhappy: This is also another one of your trademark "I don't see any way to make it back here" puzzles--they always work out in the end but I'll always hesitant to commit to that first portal away....but they always work out in the end Took a while to find the clever velocity boost for making it to the cube. I don't know how you keep coming up with unique and satisfying puzzles over and over and over again.

Excellent map. I did not find it extremely difficult. A little repetitive but all pretty standard flings. Thanks for your work!

Nice puzzle, however the process of getting onto the ledge AND having the gel in one of your portals was EXTREMELY tedious, and it was made even more so by the fact that you have to redo the whole thing if you mess up the terminal velocity maneuver . I ended up noclipping quite a bit just to bypass that process.

Hoo, pretty tight timing on the whole "getting the white blob into an infinite portal loop to gain speed" thing! Awesome chamber nonetheless.
Demon Arisen  [author] 29 Jul, 2019 @ 7:02pm 
Thanks for playing, Teo, and congrats on the solve! This is a deceptively tricky chamber, so I don't blame you for taking a while with it.
Teo 29 Jul, 2019 @ 6:14pm 
I am embarrassed to admit how long it took me to complete this level >.> I just could not figure out how to get to the cube. After 700+ hours I'm still oblivious to all visual clues it seems. Anyhow, very nice conversion gel map, some smart no elements moves mixed in as well
Spider_Dawg 16 Apr, 2019 @ 12:09pm 
It was the most simple part that tripped me up on this one ( the fling to the cube ). I did unintentionally exploit the conversion gel, placing portals close to the wall splattered gel on unintended surfaces, negating the need to drop the angled panel .Well made, as always.

@wildgoosespeeder Thanks very much! :)
wildgoosespeeder 27 Jan, 2019 @ 12:08pm 
Very hard to pull off good white gel puzzles because of the exploitive nature of the conversion gel. Well done.
Demon Arisen  [author] 23 Dec, 2018 @ 8:46am 
@zigzagtenniscoe Thanks very much! Glad to hear it, and good to see you back :)
zigzagtenniscoe 18 Dec, 2018 @ 8:51pm 
Probably among your best tests. It's rare to find a good test including portalable gel in it, this is probably the best test I've seen so far with it.
Demon Arisen  [author] 8 Mar, 2018 @ 12:47am 
@Tronsnake Thanks! Making the player return to the entrance is one of my favourite techniques. Glad you liked it! Conversion gel is pretty hard to make puzzles with, but it's rewarding for players when it's used well.
Hikari 7 Mar, 2018 @ 7:58pm 
Awesome puzzle with white gel, my favorite test element! I really like it when your puzzles have the player get to the main area, and then leave the way they came.
Demon Arisen  [author] 20 Sep, 2017 @ 4:54pm 
@Mikeastro Thanks! Yeah that's kind of an inherent problem with conversion gel puzzles, but I'll probably attempt another one at some point.
Mikeastro 20 Sep, 2017 @ 11:43am 
Creative, yet near the end it started to feel a little repetitive
Demon Arisen  [author] 19 Mar, 2017 @ 1:42am 
@hestia.is.bestia Me too, it's extremely difficult to make good chambers with it, so I'm glad you had fun! :)
hestia.is.bestia 18 Mar, 2017 @ 6:00pm 
White gel is my least favorite element. Good job on making an enjoyable map despite that.
Rector 27 Feb, 2017 @ 7:09am 
Nice conversion gel puzzle! It's a little repetitive and a tad frustrating with the gel bomb but it's still fun to solve. Not sure if I broke it though.

Demon Arisen  [author] 12 Feb, 2017 @ 8:41pm 
I've played it, and I loved it! But what's the relevance?
The Sojourner 12 Feb, 2017 @ 8:40pm 
If only Valve had had the foresight... :steamfacepalm:
Well, Prototype did create one new Adhesion gel test...
Demon Arisen  [author] 12 Feb, 2017 @ 8:33pm 
@p0rtalmaster Thanks! Apparently he hasn't played P2 in ages though, since he's played so many maps that his game struggles to load his queue...
The Sojourner 12 Feb, 2017 @ 8:15pm 
I know. This would be another one for wildgoosespeeder's "Non-exploitive white gel" puzzles.
Demon Arisen  [author] 12 Feb, 2017 @ 7:51pm 
@p0rtalmaster Thanks! :) Particularly proud of this one, since it's really hard to make working puzzles with Conversion Gel.
The Sojourner 12 Feb, 2017 @ 7:48pm 
You did another excellent job. Here it is, all coated in the stuff for you: :p2cube:

@Demon Arisen In fact, you inspired me to dare my own Conversion Gel test :D. I would be very glad, if you give it a try!

Demon Arisen  [author] 1 Feb, 2017 @ 10:20am 
@narr Hahaha I know, thank you! I think I've fixed the map as best I can without making it look terrible, if an alternate solution takes 15 minutes longer to execute than the actual solution, I'm fine just leaving it in :P
boboc 1 Feb, 2017 @ 10:18am 
btw, don't get me wrong. i like the map very,very much. otherwise i woudln't be testing its possibilities for like an hour :p2aperture:

got it,didnt turn out to be as hard as i thought. good one!

@Karmapolis Well thank you very much! :) Feel free to try my other tests if you want more of the same!
Karmapolis 31 Jan, 2017 @ 11:37am 
I'm so blown away right now. Took 90 minutes to finish it. Congrats !

@Richard L Thank you, hope you had fun! :) Try some of my other tests if you're looking for more of the same :p2cube:
Richard L 30 Jan, 2017 @ 4:34pm 
Tough one. Finally got it.
boboc 30 Jan, 2017 @ 4:13am 
the same issue that i mentioned before still exists. if you could cover the walls of the exit area with glass and an empty square behind it, leaving only the ceiling <unglassed>, because the mid-air crush can't reach this , you could eliminate the problem. maybe think about putting glass on all surfaces, that you don't need for the solution :P . conversion gel is just too dodgy
Demon Arisen  [author] 30 Jan, 2017 @ 2:42am 
@jandlml You don't need to make more than one blob come out at once :) Flinging is the most important thing in this chamber, and it's all about where you fling FROM, not just where you fling TO.
Psychological Atom 30 Jan, 2017 @ 1:24am 
Nice puzzle. I thinking about making a conversion gel puzzle , but it's gonna require more thinking because this major element is harder to use. Also, I broked the map. See I was gonna place conversion gel on the wall with the fizzler so i go ahead and check. I put both portals on both angled platforms and it flung me into the platform with the cube. So I was shocked.
