Description
Cave Johnson here, reminding all test subjects to apply a generous coating of Aperture brand sunscreen all over your body before entering any test involving a Hard Light Bridge. And I mean all over your body. Eyes. Hair. Teeth. Yes, even your... gentleman's possessions. Due to the recent affliction of beautiful weather here in Michigan, our solar wave harnessing coils are significantly overcharged. That means those Light Bridges are outputting sweltering levels of heat. If you go anywhere near them without wearing Aperture brand sunscreen, you'll burn away faster than my bank account. Not all bad news though; thanks to the excess heat they're producing, those bridges make for a damn fine barbecue. So, lather on that sunscreen nice and thick - we'll be using it to stick burgers, steaks, and sausages all over you so I can eat... uh, I mean so we can test how well they cook. Cave Johnson, well done steak here. What? I mean medium rare. What? I mean we're done here.

I'm back after a six month hiatus with my first test of 2019 - SUNSCREEN: an easy-medium map focusing on a vertical light bridge which blocks the path of a faith plate. I spent a couple of weeks painstakingly trying to get this one to work, and then it all clicked together in a couple of hours this evening. Funny how that works sometimes.

If you're wondering why it's been so long since my last test, part of the reason is that I've been really busy with university, another part is that I've been focusing on working on my mod Portal 2: Desolation, and yet another part is that honestly I was pretty burnt out on Portal for a while. I frequently tried to make test chambers, I had some good ideas, but none of them worked out and I just ended up frustrated. Now that I've had a long break from the game, I feel reinvigorated and ready to begin testing again. Just like old times.

Anyway, I really hope you enjoy this - I put a lot of work into it and it's quite an unusual test, so all feedback is appreciated. Here's to 2019, and I hope I can make a few more maps by the end of the year!

not too hard but enjoyable

I skipped a step by throwing the cube onto the faith plate

I think I remember this one as being one of the first maps on the workshop I tried when I started playing Portal 2 in 2015. As sappy as it is to say, "Suncreen" will always hold a special place in the organ that pumps my blood :p2cube:

Replayed this one twice since my return, you know honestly I thought the solution was a little ninja-y at first but if you know what to do in advance it really isn’t that bad. If you mess up the last step you do have a lot of steps to do over again but that’s Portal sometimes. (And, not a big deal if you quicksave regularly like me.)

Difficulty 3.5/10, design 8/10. Easy but fun and clever.

Lmao! For me, the cube bounced back like 3 times when I tried to launch it to the exit door, it kept going into the fizzler! Very nice solution though, I really like this one!
