Hint for the first puzzle:
You can use the height of the room with the high energy pellet catcher to conserve your velocity.

Observation for the last puzzle:
Did you notice that while staying on the platform with the dripping gel you can portal above the light bridge?

Good one.

Wow, gorgeous Hammer work and simply built but ingenious puzzles here. Even the first one is cool - it’s a good one to teach players the importance of trial and error, perspective, and that things that seem to only have one use at first often have secondary, vital uses. Love how each puzzle is more difficult than the last - I really liked the intermediate area and how it fooled you into thinking it was something to fly through and forget about before you inevitably led us to that banger that any sane person would have accompany them for as long as possible. Did the silliest little fumble, having totally forgotten that one pipe led to the original floor portal surface from a higher angle for a reason…

And then, the final chamber, a great test of the player’s portal-management and observation skills. The main issue for me was noticing the ceiling portal surface above the bridge , the key to moving on. Everything fell into place more or less pretty smoothly after that as I had already looked around and had formed a very vague idea of what I needed to do - which I built upon correctly while actually executing. (To be honest, puzzles which take advantage of “sneak” surfaces like that don’t please me quite as much as ones where everything is clear and the only thing in between you and the door is your brain, but that’s relatively minor so long as the surface in question is easily reachable from where it needs to be reached - and this one was.)

Nevertheless, favorited.

Difficulty: 3.5/10

Very nice, not too difficult, but you have to think or try a bit

Solved, I missed the ceiling surface, that's why I couldn't figure out until this revisit.

@ben77 someone copied your map without giving credits: Enigma Protocol | Chapter 3 (room 3).

It's so strange when you solve puzzles without entirely knowing how, just feeling your gut and trying things out. You achieve things you didn't know where possible. A lot of times playing workshop puzzles I think it's impossible to connect two areas with portals because they are so far apart, but there's always some clever portal combo that does the trick. Like here.

Nice portal management, especially in the last room.

Very, very nice.
