Portal 2
[SP] Introbackfling
Hello everyone! This is my first map I want to release to the public. For that I need some Feedback as long as I'm working on it. So, here I am. This map does not include special gameplayelements like gels or lasers, but a new environment I want to show. It has three rooms, the last (third) room is the one where I think I have to do much more work. The details aren't finished (except the first room where I'm nearly done) and the coop-robots are just placeholders for some real NPC's I want to put in later. That's all, but I would love it to get records of your first playtroughs (or better videos [youtube]). Greetz, Sprowl

The Experience 2
A small test chamber for testing test subjects. Edited: Changed some things to prevent exploits Edit2: Changed some other things... Edit3: Added a second room changed some things in the first one. Playthrough: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U7o0V7pKcEU
inversion
A short, challenging map using gravity flips. It's sort of glitchy in some areas, (not much I can do about it,) but I worked hard on making this map look professional, and I think it's my best so far. Enjoy, and please comment on what I can do to make my maps better! 1.1.1 Made into a vpk file so my custom sign works! 1.1.0 Made 'lower' chamber have a metal floor to prevent an unintended, very fast solution. Added white wall to allow player to return to 'top' chamber. 1.0.0 Initial release
[SP] 1943
An old Aperture-themed map of medium difficulty. I estimate it will take 10-20 minutes to play. My first release(after a lot of horrible attempts at mapping), any kind of feedback(on the puzzle, difficulty, looks etc) is very much appreciated because I want to have a perfectly finished map when it goes out of WIP and plan on making new maps in the future. pics:

Molybdenum
A singleplayer map taking place in the destroyed Aperture setting. Fairly challenging puzzle using light bridges, funnels, gels, boxes, lasers and turrets.
Egg Hunt
A map consisting of 2 compulsary chambers and a 3rd hidden chamber. The chambers make full use of the Excursion Funnel. My first map and most deffinatly not my last! Edit: Well, I have a feeling this is going to get disqualified now... didn't realize adding the icons for the test chamber sign counts as a custom script. Assumed custom scripts meant something like making a completely new one.
Positive Discouragement - Chamber 01
"Positive Discouragement" is a small map pack that I'm working on. I decided that I might as well upload this here, instead of having it sit around on my computer until I finish all the maps, but I'm not going to upload it to the Workshop until they're all done. So for now, you'll have to do it the old-fashioned way! (place the .bsp in your "portal 2/portal2/maps" folder) ====== This chamber is the intro chamber, so it -isn't supposed to be super hard -is meant to be the most destroyed of them all. I fashioned it after 'sp_a2_dual_lasers' On a side note, this map is a VisLeaf mess. Guess how many numportals? Almost 3500. I didn't know how to make 3D skyboxes at the time, but now I see that I really should've used that, as it would've saved me so much trouble and time. I may revamp it before the workshop release. Anyway, enjoy! Don't forget to leave feedback, it is much appreciated. ====== Changelog: 1.0 -Release 1.1 -Changed the BTS area -Reworked the map so that it doesn't use linked_portal_doors -Changed some trigger_look settings -Fixed a broken animation on one of the fizzlers ====== A big thanks goes out to Lpfreaky90. If it weren't for her and her troubleshooting ability, this map wouldn't even exist. I'm serious. Hammer was telling me there was a leak in the middle of the void so I couldn't compile. Also, thank you to Stimich, who helped me beta-test!
Zeitgeist (Old Aperture Co-op)
A 1900's Aperture map and my second finished map, I wanted to see if I could capture the essence of the Valve paint co-op maps and I guess I sort of succeeded. This "enrichment sphere" uses Conversion Gel, Turrets, Excursion Funnels and Repulsion Gel and can be solved in several ways depending on how keen eyed you are. Yes, I realise there are some visual glitches with quite a bit of fail lighting and overlays. But how about we just ignore those for the sake of science.
Hotel Aperture
PLEASE NOTE: The filename of the map has changed since the last update, it is not hotel_aperture so take that into account when playing the map Changelog (V 1.4.2) V 1.3: Cubemaps have been correctly built so hopefully no more visual corruption V 1.3.1: Hopefully thanks to HMW's helpful suggestion the cubemap error should be gone for good. V 1.4: Fixed the faith plate animation, radio no longer carries on playing after being fizzled, other small visual tweaks and bug fixes V 1.4.1: Further lighting tweaks V 1.4.2: Eliminated a potential scenario in which players and objects could fall through the aerial faith plate V 1.5: Fixed a couple of exploits and made some visual tweaks
