diversity testing
This might not be accepted, because the clock on the site was ahead, and it refused to upload at first. Extra note: After finally being able to TEST it, I've discovered that, shockingly, the only thing completely broken is a single laser, and the unimportant game end effect. Of course, it's still technically broken, but I had to try to submit thirty seconds before the deadline. It's also riddled with physics bugs, as a bonus. The first two tests work perfectly, though, and a lot of things that I expected not to, do work. There's a whole two working puzzles, even. Too late to fix anything, though. SO YEAH, the end is broken. A laser doesn't turn on, and a door won't open. The part before that, will take a billion tries because of a bug with trigger_push. I can't fix it past the deadline, so it's stuck like that. You've been warned.
Vertigo
New update released: -Fixed lighting issues on some moving panels -Changed design of first chamber around a bit -Fixed glitch in second chamber in which you could skip a part of the puzzle by jumping to the tractor beam -Moved some areas around in the second chamber to make them easier to see -Changed design of second area to prevent skipping through some of the puzzles -Fixed issues with the checkpoint between the two chambers -Improved lighting Special thanks to Marlow for his coop airlock instance which appears to be working a lot better than the weird setup I had for the checkpoint before. In this test, you and your partner in science will be presented with a wide array of testing apparatus, such as light bridges, tractor beams, gel, and thermal discouragement beams. Have Fun! Any feedback would be greatly appreciated so let me know what you think about the map and if you run into any issues that I might have overlooked.
The Curious Conundrum
What a curious conundrum you find yourself in, Hmm?
Variety - Coop Map
A map made up of various game mechanics. This map is for the game-play value and less of the looks. It still is a good looking map though. MAJOR FIX: The rar has been fixed and contains the real map. Unfortunately this error caused by late night stress may have just cost me the competition. Fix: Forgot to turn paint on in properties.
Companion Retrieval Run
Retrieve your faithful companion cube, and make your escape, at a price.
Hypercube
Co-op map utilizing a Thermal Discouragement Beam, Reflector Cube, and an Arial Faith Plate. The product of 2 days of planning and 2 days of mapping.
The Room
This is the first map I've ever done. It's not as full as I would like, but I think there's a good story in there. Thanks for playing!
Cubes, buttons, funnels...it's got it all.
So... I actually haven't used Hammer all that much before. As in, I started using it on May 17th. Which means I'm pretty new to all of it. Which ALSO means that my test chambers are more on the Wheatley side, if you know what I mean.
Reversal
A map centered around a conveyorbelt, which has been critically aclaimed as "nicely detailed" and "an interesting idea" by testers. Here's two full size screenshots: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/900111/sp_reversal0006.jpg http://dl.dropbox.com/u/900111/sp_reversal0003.jpg Enjoy, and please leave some comments - this is my first release here. (special thanks to msleeper for his modified transition instance)
eco_leaf
Well, here it is. sp_eco_Leaf is my contest entry. (Duh.) I tried to use the layout and architecture to draw the player's attention to certain puzzle elements, (and sometimes away from them...) sp_eco_leaf has five chambers, and almost all of them can be finished with more than one solution. There is one minor secret area that none of my play testers found, but most of you should be able to find it. Have fun!
