Interesting. So the blue gel was just a decoy?

I started playing custom maps and record me playing them. It's neither a perfect run nor do I have to have solved the map in the way it's meant to solve it. I play the maps "blind", that means I've never been in them before and play them for the very first time. I also give a little feedback for the map in the video description.

Maybe you are interested in the fact, that I played your map: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CKXCVOXbcJI

Yes, I suppose I just wanted to rack the player's knowledge of jump puzzles a bit.

Also, thank you for the playtest, I shall tweak the map a little in where you had slight problems.

Uninmpressive Old Aperture map, mostly built around platforming: close call jumps and sniping portals (nudge nudge) make its "puzzles". What perplexes me, is the thing about luring the player on a false path which kills him.

Pathfinding punishing exploration.

Running, jumping and crouching practice, nothing more. Maps in the original game using the same mechanic are much more fun to play. I am almost dissappointed enough to give this a 2, but it does work for what little it does. 3/5, but removed from playlist.
