Description
Hello test subjects, it's Cave. Just an advance warning that the sprinkler system in this next test is extremely sensitive - and I don't mean it'll go off at the drop of a fiery hat. What I do mean is that it's programmed with a rudimentary AI personality which has gone through a lot of emotional turmoil recently, so it's very vulnerable. I know we all want to, but don't be mean to him unless you want him to turn on the waterworks. You think you've seen people upset, just wait until you experience a crying sprinkler system. I won't tolerate workplace bullying. I'll only participate in it. Cave Johnson, we're done here.

Today is my 20th Birthday! :birthday: I decided to celebrate by releasing a small map to thank you guys for continuing to enjoy my puzzles for so many years. This puzzle wasn't a major project, just something I whipped up to celebrate, so don't expect the best puzzle ever.

Extinguish is a medium difficulty puzzle which combines some old reliable techniques with some unusual new ideas, using some of my favourite elements along with some experimental mechanics and an updated visual style. I hope you all enjoy it, and be sure to let me know what you think!

Very nice. Like others, it took me a while to get started on the right track.

Great puzzle! I think for your 24th birthday you can remake this map and push puzzle a bit more far, I was expecting to run on first room while cube timer was on the go and do the blue thing, turning of funnel and covering its room, but that was move was easier than that in your map :p

It seems I just missed your 24th birthday? Judging from the dates on the original commenters. I haven't played portal in about a year and a half, so I'm just making an attempt today after having forgotten everything I ever knew. In any case, I've played quite a few of your puzzles in the past and have found them devilishly delightful. Happy birthday!

Very nicely done! Not too challenging, yet not too easy, I love it! Catching the cube mid-jump was genius.

Wow! So young. It was bad enough when I had the impression you were 20ish years younger than me...but now...boy, do I feel old. And you were 13 when you created some of your older puzzles?...I guess talent is talent.

Saw how the ending had to be, but sat for a long time not seeing anything to do until I saw for the first time how to get gel into the funnel (to paint lower tier of cube button island) . F6/F7ing a lot so as not to have to redo things. I thought the tight timing for painting under the funnel was going to be my hardest part, until I realized the timing needed for the jump and grab...and still failed a number of times as I would forget that I still need to make the distance to complete the jump even if I succeeded in grabbing the cube . You certainly earned your namesake on this one...at least in my book. :p2blue:

Excellent map! As in some of your other maps, the secret is to be able to go to all the platforms without using a portal. Thanks for your work!

Wow, I'm only about 2 months older than you, I never suspected. Happy belated 20th birthday! And on that note, happy belated 21st birthday as well! :D

Anyway, this is a really nice puzzle. For some reason I couldn't think of how to get gel in the funnel so I did what I noticed I can do to maybe break the puzzle a bit - I peaked through the grate under the fizzler and shot a portal through it while standing where the funnel button is. I'm now seeing what BehindPortal's doing to use the gel and what I missed feels mindblowingly obvious. The rest of the puzzle I did as intended and I really liked it, nice work on that.
