For this puzzle, it became clear that there had to be a portal opposite the 2nd laser to open the door, so I worked back from there.

Demon Arisen, I LOVE your puzzles. They're challenging, but I never feel like I have to look up a walkthrough. It feels like you're holding my hand through the process. It's a rare talent. Thank you

I tried really hard to solve using only one cube, and got really close, but I just couldn't seem to do it. I gave up and used the other cube. Maybe I will recreate this one but with one cube and not requiring extremely precise moves.

Not so easy-ish for me, rather easy-medium. I solved 75% of it pretty quickly by just randomly trying things, but then I had to think hard about the final steps. Compared to the official solution video I did things differently, but I'm so confused I can't tell what it was. Heck, I even can't tell what exactly happens in the solution video ^^' let's just say I did it in a similar way ;D

Oh, I remember what the exploit was. Or maybe it's one I've found recently and the one from a while ago was different. If you're quick enough you can respawn one of the cubes using the fizzler and go back and grab it from the upper platform, I know the height is meant to make this impossible but with some luck and skill it's doable .

Semi-blindrun (at least 4 years since I've played, took a break starting from late 2019)
Don't see puzzles too often that require double laser cubes pointed at weird angles , though this one isn't too annoying with the concept. I think I did exploit it at one point but can't remember. Well done as always.

Difficulty: 4.75/10
Design: 8.5/10
Enjoyed: 7.75/10

Pleasing mid-casual run, great one.

Old reliable Demon, always can count on you to stump me--but not too much! :p2aperture:

Holy shit that was hard. Easy-ish?
??????????????????????
I spent a solid 20 minutes racking my brain, scratching my head, and navigating this confusing chamber, half of that trying to figure out what I'm doing, and another half trying to get everything to work. That was NOT easy, my God.
Or maybe it's just because it's 9:30PM now :p

Another great puzzle. Thanks for creating.

Satisfying. Spent a lot of time moving "forward" -- meaning doing something that then opened up possibilities for doing something else -- only to then find that I would keep trading off end conditions that were needed to have a compete solution. Finally, ended up looking at what the final move had to be and where it had to be executed from and started thinking backward. That showed what the final cube positions had to be Fortunately, my earlier attempts set things up so only move or two were needed -- so I had been close. Another great puzzle!

Fun and clever. Thanks!

Short and sweet, I enjoyed the low difficulty yet apparent nonstraightfowardness :)

Pretty easy map, cool use of portals.
vallibus 19 Apr, 2019 @ 3:29pm 
Very nice. Another interesting poser from your workshop.

Your solution was much more interesting than mine. I ended up doing the same as wildgoosespeeder--jumping onto the platform quickly. This is only possible because of the proximity to the laser. One tile further back and it would be fine. Great map!

funny map,thumbs up

I had the laser cube portaless activating the fizzler and piston platform. Then as I had the overhead laser portaled to the exit, and blocked the laser with the spare laser cube to keep the piston platform down. If you are quick enough, you can unblock the laser and get on the rising piston platform to exit, bypassing the intended logic of two lasers through a portal . Best way that I can think to fix this is to have the piston platform elevated and the only way to get onto it is with the use of stairs. Place the stairs to the right of it, from the persective of just walking through the entrance.

Nope, I did it as intended. Watched your solution.

Nice little puzzle. I actually had this one in 5 min or so. (Maybe I butchered it or I got lucky).

Great chamber, clever solution.

Clever, man! That was fun!

@Tronsnake From my great brain, of course :P Joking aside, I'm not sure. Sometimes I can't come up with any ideas at all. Other times I'm capable of some pretty cool things. Thanks for playing!
Hikari 7 Mar, 2018 @ 6:42pm 
Quite the challenge! Jeez, where do you get such great ideas? Otherwise, love it.

This one really, REALLY made me think. I got tunnel vision at one point as to what the final set-up had to be, then I found the correct set-up by half accident. Excellent laser puzzle.
Libbybapa 24 Oct, 2017 @ 8:57pm 
Very nice! I liked that a lot. It actually took me quite a while to solve.
Mikeastro 20 Sep, 2017 @ 11:04am 
Oh, after a slight adjustment I think I did it right; good puzzle
Mikeastro 20 Sep, 2017 @ 10:58am 
I don't think I solved it the way you intended

I think I solved it the unintended way since I ended up with one of the cubes on the platform.

@hestia.is.bestia Thanks very much! :)

Loved this puzzle. Very clever use of lasers.

Very nice. Not ar all hard, not too easy fun to think about.

I saw. I'll try it sometime soon hopefully.

@p0rtalmaster Thank you! I didn't know there were ApTag emoticons... Speaking of which, I've made my very first ApTag puzzle, which you might also enjoy! :p2chell:

That was a fun and (literally!) little adventure :p2cube:

@dire.fcs Nope, not intended! Solution video is embedded above, or on my YouTube channel :)

@robertkjr3d Thank you! Well I don't know, I usually get a couple of negative ratings on my tests which are presumably from people who couldn't be bothered to apply their brainpower to solve them :P Glad you enjoyed it anyway, you might want to try some of my others if you're up for a similar challenge! :p2cube:
