Description
It's been years since I last remade one of my older puzzles, but Split really deserved it.
To celebrate the occasion of my turning a quarter of a century old, I bring you this map.
It effectively has only a single connection, no fizzlers, one funnel and one laser and it has been severely compactified with respect to the original.
I believe this truly brings out the simplicity of the situation that I had discovered back then, but which I initially presented in an unnecessarily convoluted way.
Quick portalling is neither necessary nor intended, and so are angled lasers through portals.
Please enjoy it!

Difficulty: 4/10.
If you think you did anything unintended, please let me know!

Special thanks to DiDo Killer! and Dark Rozen for playtesting.

In other news: My puzzle game Sokoban: The RPG has been released on steam! Please consider checking it out!

nice puzzle. you go from "huh this is too easy. maybe i am getting smarter for a 4/10 puzzle" to "wtf just happened". very evil thing to not respawn the normal cube. the solution was kinda satisfying. the angles were kinda awkward in my solution, the markers on the ground helped but imo the final angle and the midpoint guessing is still a bit too much. you sometimes need 2-3 tries to get it right cool puzzle overall.

This map had me splitting hairs. Took me 70s minutes, really stumped me. Great puzzle! The layout to move ratio boggles me. So damn minimal. Favorited!

wait...can you trap yourself by just riding the orange funnel to the emitter? I don't see a way out of that situation

Great remake of one of my favorite older maps by you. I tried this when it first came out but got stuck really quick; glad I finally came back :)

Aha, very clever.

@Nobody No-One Sorry for the late response, but there is a reason for that: with the current setup it is required that you leave the laser cube on the middle island for your first crossing to the exit side. Namely, one might be tempted to leave the laser cube on the first island instead blocking the laser, funneling it out of the way, pushing it against the grating, and later retrieving it again, to achieve this crossing. However, because now you have to move your funnel portal to reach the regular cube, you cannot do this while keeping the laser cube from falling into the goo. Hope that made sense

Very nice. It took me too long to realize that you could redirect the laser through a portal. Remarkably clean re-layout. (Is there any reason why the weighted cube area is up one block? The fact that you need to use the funnel to get it doesn't seem to force any additional logic, since you already need a blue funnel to get to the exit area anyway.) Big thumbs up.

Yep, this chamber turned out to be a lot harder than it looked.

I have no clue why, but for some reason this puzzle gave me an uncharacteristically difficult time solving. It's really quite easy, but the main "gimmick" just took a very long time for me to see. playthrough
