Excellent puzzle, definite and added to favourites.

Straightforward solution path, but super cool! As always, great aesthetics as well. Big thumbs up, thanks for creating!

Clever puzzle, was fun to work it out
The cube stack on the light bridge in your video is a nice gimmick but not necessary.

nice map idk if a angled laser through portal move was intended but i could not find any other way to do it :P sry if angled lasers through portals were not intended

Thank you guys.

Very nice map. I agree with Leomievs that that was the best part of the test. Thumbs up.

Cool map! Some creative moves and a nice solution, all within a clear and pretty design. The respawn move was really clever. Anyway, great job! And thanks for disabling the laser collision ;)

Oh, well. You have to solve the sub test by this way? Very easy, if you know how you do this.

I just added the video walkthrough.

pro: I've enjoyed this hard map. (:

contra: I was able to go trough the grate on the left side. I didn't know how to solve this chamber in the correct form, so I did an unusual way. I'm not sure about this kind of "solution", so I haven't voted this map.

This map is definitely unfinished.
Thanks

But at least I didn't need help :D

LOL i'm pretty sure i beat this one completely unintended. First, I threw the first cube over the wall to the funnel area, because I didn't know there was a light bridge. Second, I held the second cube walking backwards to get through the fizzler. Third I hopped on a box through a portal like Prototype did in hsi video. Forth I walked through the grating there to get up. Fifth I got the third cube without the use of the light bridge. Finally I jumped on my last cube to get to the light bridge. At least my solution was the intended one.

What? I added an entity that makes the laser totally inoffensive, weird.
Thanks for playing.

Always a wonderful feeling when the ah-ha hits. My behind is blistered from all the laser burns.

I didn't do anything ... a kind of glitch I guess.
Well, you skipped the main idea of the puzzle. I fixed several things ;)
Thanks for the video.

Blind run: https://youtu.be/vH110b3hjNA
I'm not quite sure what you did with the portal surface at the end of the lightbridge to make the cube behave like that... I didn't like the invisible player-clip around the hole in the floor.

Yes, I agree about this weird 'glitch'. I don't understand why but I saw that you just have to shoot another portal to release the cube. Not obvious at first but easy.
Thanks.

Really nice puzzle!
It looks scary at first but as I progressed, I found it more and more understandable.
I think it took me 20 minutes.
One complain I have about this map is that laser cubes are stuck between portals way too much. It didn't break the puzzle but it was stil annoying.
I wonder if you could put an arrow pointing to the floor where the bridge is because locating the bridge took me quite a bit of time.

Yes I know. Unfortunately, due to the rules of the contest, I can't add another connection (pedestal button). Anyway that's very unfortunate because I put a func_clip_physics, avoiding the cube to be stuck if you throw it from the floor.
'noclip' is totally forbidden :p

The reflection cube got stuck, could not reach it or redeploy new one.

Oh, yes indeed I misread your comment. Yeah, probably possible. I am wondering if that needs to be fixed.
So have you found the intended way? Just a little puzzle introduction.

@Polux: No, I did not rated it down. I wrote that it is a good test and gave it a 7.5/10. Why should I rate it down?
True, the cube not always lands on the glass.

@quaternary - Box jumps workout!
@€in€r vØn vi€l€n - Have you rated it down?
I don't understand because I can't do what you did in your spoiler, very weird. It seems that the physics changes sometimes without any reason ..
For the last step, it's not necessary to put the cube on the light bridge but simply on the floor.
Thus the cube should not move.
Thanks for playing.

I don't know if this is intended: I placed the portal slightly to the right of the lightbridge's target surface. After the other portal was placed on the highest surface I went down and respawned the cube. The cube then fell down onto the lightbridge and jumped sidesways off of it onto the glass pane.
Besides from that I think I solved it just fine. Took me about 30 min though. Good map! Very logical! The most annoying thing is to handle with the lightbridge physics. Sometimes the cube clips through or fall of for some reason. Or for the last step, the orientation of the cube changes while jumping on it. I had to set up the last bit 5 times before I finally could open the exit door.

I would give it an 7.5/10 as it is.
If I did that cube part unintended and you tell me the correct way, I may change my rating.

If this is a puzzle about "Fitness" then... it is definitely about a balance beam :D

Awesome

haha i dont know why you cant im friends with a few people. sloppy steve,red silencer are 2 of them

I want to know all your life, down to the smallest detail.
... just wanted to send you a friend request :)

what did you want to know?

@Requiemsoul - Well played, I will try to fix that.
@Zoraya - yes intended, thanks for playing.
@cyhborg - ;)

Brilliant as always! Getting the 2 cubes wasn´t really hard, but the last part made me dizzy... I tried to do the same as Requiemsoul, but then...a light bulb! I hope this is intended: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=894882786
Thanks for your great work!

The ending xD
https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=894844166
And i don´t use the panel with grating of the beginning. I destroy the cube with the fizzler and hit the the bridge and fall to glass.

good job

You can see it's not libbybapa so it's you.

?

....

are you talking to me or libbybapa?

Too bad your profile is set to private ...

i got it, i was thinking way to technical. this was a grreat map. loved it. it will have to be a favorite

hmm ok thank you

@jandlml - The highest portal surface behind the main fizzler is needed only to go up at the beginning.
Hmm ... I would say splash
@SloppySteve - By straightforward I don't mean easy but rather linear (always go ahead and never back down).

ahhh help please,im so stuck. i have both cubes right now im standing on the bridge at the highest portal surface. i used the cube to get me up here so now i have no way to get it back.so all i can do is get myself to the door. but i cant open it.or i can open it but not get to the door. i thought maybe if i could respawn the cube but then it would fall all the way down so i would loose the bridge access and laser i really want to finish this map. is there any tiny hint you can give me without giving away to much?

It took me a couple hours so i think it great.

Thanks Steve. I'm not entirely satisfied on this one, the solution is a bit too 'straightforward' imo. Just some little ideas I had in stock.
@jandlml - autorespawn

I played through this two times. Once with Jgaultney watching to confirm my solution. This is a great puzzle! It was put together well and looks fantastic! Thanks, Polux!

oh yay got the second cube. now hmm

i knew i would have trouble when its a polux map. great map but i am so stuck. i have the first cube and can open the fizlle wall to the bridge room.but icant see anyway to connect the room with any other wall. any tiny hint would be appreciated.what am i not seeing?

What popped into my mind was a combination of Ravage and this puzzle. to stack cubes but it matters which side is down Anyway, you always make me think. Thanks

Ah? I don't remember ...
You need the bridge and both cubes.
