vallibus 10 Dec, 2024 @ 2:36pm

Very, very nice.

林荷叶 21 Jul, 2024 @ 7:50am

nice

glenmcd[AUS] 22 Dec, 2023 @ 4:23am

Now that one made me really think. That's a good thing :)

SpielSatzFail 13 Aug, 2022 @ 6:48am

I want to quote pkScary's comment: "simple for how complex it is". Or the other way around, I dunno ^^
The fact is I overcomplicated it. Or more precisely, I came back with the bridge and wanted to avoid going down for the cube... it felt wrong, rather like going backwards.
Actually the only thing that matters is that you have a portal in the second room once .

lukas 29 May, 2022 @ 11:38am

Amazing map!

CoffeeCoder 23 Mar, 2022 @ 5:58am

I was trying to make it so much more complicated than it needed to be. Clever map :) Simple but still makes you think

Jägermeister 15 Feb, 2022 @ 12:30pm

Very clever map! Thanks!!!

bruhinb 1 Apr, 2021 @ 2:08pm

That really kept me thinking until the very end!!!

pkScary 3 Nov, 2020 @ 2:16am

Kind of an oxymoron, but simple for how complex it is. Really, really well done. Thumbs up

really nice map, very fun. thanks for creating :o)

hfmanson 15 Nov, 2017 @ 6:33am

Fun!

Teresa 28 Aug, 2017 @ 4:35am

I m not sure if jumping from the button to second room is right,because it seems hard to jump, maybe its an easy action

shaggath 23 Jul, 2017 @ 8:09am

This one is easy, but still interesting !

bullfrog 12 Jul, 2017 @ 1:21am

Simple, but clever. WARNING the comment by @[SKILL]CAMP below is a spoiler, but not marked as such.

Artmugal 8 Jun, 2017 @ 5:34am

It looks difficult but it's easy, place the cube in the other room first.

Petutski 27 May, 2017 @ 1:24pm

Nice fun logical map! Thanks!

jandlml 16 Mar, 2017 @ 4:05pm

wonderful. just subscribed to your geand designs

EndOfPortal 10 Feb, 2017 @ 3:52pm

Nice logic

Pamsy 12 Feb, 2016 @ 7:37pm

Not so bad! (Compared to Solitude). Hint 1: Return from room 2 via light bridge aimed at the funnel-reversing laser catcher. Hint 2: Yes, then just carry the cube using
a portal at basement level!

BarHop 24 Nov, 2015 @ 3:06pm

I dont think i did it right...but i did it! nice map!

Miami Mike 4 Oct, 2015 @ 3:37pm

GravityUnown, what are you talking about? You just go back to where you got the cube in the first place and push the button!

zigzagtenniscoe 11 Aug, 2015 @ 5:51pm

Continued...

It took about 5 tries for me to get it right. Now portal the laser to its catcher, put the cube on the button and your done.

zigzagtenniscoe 11 Aug, 2015 @ 5:50pm

Neat map! Tkink I may have found a tricky exploit:

First part of the map is norma;. After you manage to get into that room portal to where the light bridge platform is. Jump up into the reversed tractor beam funnel, then go down on the platform where the cube spawns. Press the button to make it respawn. After that, put a portal where the laser will go through. (Remember that you had to have a portal in the finishing foom for this to work in the first place). It's tricky, but from the cube spawn platform you can jump into the portal. Continued in next post.

ZAEROS 7 Jul, 2015 @ 1:33am

Another "Old" map which I had missed, Excellent.

Poison Dart Frag 30 Jun, 2015 @ 11:07am

I almost gave up, but I think I figured out the propper solution: Make the tractor beam orange by aiming the laser to the receptor on the other side of the grill; then go to the light bridge and cross to the other side; now open a portal there and bring the cube to the cube button.

Now the part that really gave me headaches till I figured out, after I already got the cube on the button:

Make a portal on the portalable surface opposite to the receptor that makes the tractor beam orange; and place the other portal to lead to the light bridge. Now from the top of the light bridge, change the portal you came out from to the surface the laser is hitting, then ride the beam to the exit room, and switch the portal the laser is coming from to the portalable surface opposite to the receptor that will open the door.

I think the pit might be unecessary though.

PortalFan 20 Jun, 2015 @ 5:40am

Very good job !

Chelliste 20 Feb, 2015 @ 8:51pm

Hundreds of maps since I last played this excellent puzzle, so I don't remember if I did it the same way. You can't see the portal surfaces in the exit room while the funnel is blue... except for a brief moment if you jump sideways off the light bridge, then you can shoot a portal while falling. The solution is not too hard after that.

Almisuifre 10 Jan, 2015 @ 1:40pm

Cleverly simple.

dire.fcs 18 Nov, 2014 @ 2:53pm

Nice work!

jam.lab1 29 Aug, 2014 @ 3:18pm

Very cool. Nice job.

metadavid 15 Jul, 2014 @ 8:48pm

After much knitted brow frustrated concentration the solution suddenly appeared as simple. I have to do the chamber again now to see if I can do it straight with one attempt. Amazing design

gamecreator 6 Jul, 2014 @ 11:50pm

Very nice. It was simpler in the end than I thought. For some reason I didn't consider one of the laser possibilities.

GBMusicMaster 30 Jun, 2014 @ 10:16am

I tried this map on several different occasions, always feeling like the solution was obvious but just out of reach for me. Today, I solved it. Excellent chamber!

Ale 12 May, 2014 @ 5:43am

An excellent chamber, as always. Good design and puzzle shape. Thank you!

xiaosha 13 Apr, 2014 @ 5:39pm

Simple and elegent, with just enough puzzle. Well done!

herbusmc 6 Apr, 2014 @ 10:15pm

To all who find maps like this one difficult, hang in there. The more you play, the easier they get. Thanks for being such a quality map maker, Azorae!

Sinkira 20 Mar, 2014 @ 10:20am

Oh nice profile picture btw ^^

Sinkira 20 Mar, 2014 @ 10:20am

Nice1 i like it! but yes it had unintender solutions :D

Azorae [author] 10 Mar, 2014 @ 6:24pm

It's not that there's supposed to be a red herring, it's just that this chamber is rather poorly designed compared to my others and unintended solutions are pretty rampant

tuyuqas 9 Mar, 2014 @ 12:59pm

Arrrrrrrrgh!!! How much I hate it when I think in the wrong direction in the first place (in this case, mainly because one of the elements was created simply for confusing players ). Hours of torments to eventually come up with an incredibly simple solution. Elegant and ingenious as always!

Databot1 24 Dec, 2013 @ 2:58pm

Superb!

jez 14 Nov, 2013 @ 2:54pm

No it was not "too easy"

paul 30 Oct, 2013 @ 1:07pm

nice but too easy. definitely not intermediate.

hobbs 14 Oct, 2013 @ 5:41pm

a quick way to win and unintended solution.
make portal on other side,
make a new cube (destroying old one),
jump across with cube and hope you make it.
from this postion,
http://cs2bus.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=186101814
go here and jump.

The Sojourner 7 Sep, 2013 @ 1:32am

I wonder how this test would work with a goo pit in the center...

question man6 19 Aug, 2013 @ 6:47am

Very nice chamber. Definitley made my brain think on how to get the cube and the laser towards the exit. Once I figured it out, I kinda felt like I should've found out sooner :P. Great chamber!

dcook 20 Jul, 2013 @ 3:54am

Thought this one was fairly easy.. :-) Solved in about 4 minutes as intended.. watched rectors vid after.. that way had not occured to me.. Some of your other maps? ....My head hurts.. lol Excellent job, they are pretty tough. :-)

Twenty Four 10 Jul, 2013 @ 4:36pm

Easy Cheat: first throw cube in pit. then put light bridge as close to the grid as possible. jump, make portal on other side. take cube to other side. set up portal to use for laser. get on light bridge. walk to funnel. use previously placed portal for reversing funnel laser. switch laser once you are on the other side. voila! you are out in record time.
