This puzzle has some interesting mechanics to it. It consists mostly of using lasers and reflector cubes. There are other elements such as tractor beams included. There is 5 main chambers with some smaller ones conecting them.

It's my 75th puzzle, so I wanted to make sure there's some interesting mechanics to it.

Enjoy.

Actually there was only one slight unintended solution, but that was only at the end. When you used the tractor beam to climb up that wall onto glass platform, I thought it would have been too close to do that, and you would get pulled in through the portal before you got up. I guess I was wrong about that one. It was supposed to be the light bridge and pop-jump up the wall. It could be that you didn't see it down below till near the end. Other than that everything went as planned.

Cheers.

wow, very prolific and you are getting better each one...
This was not easy - more medium to hard especially in the last rooms near the exit...

One issue: back in the area with orange gel and the angled fling surface - I finally pulled the cube through the grid after I couldn't figure out how to get it out from the fizzler screen area - seems to be a one way grid?

The last laser puzzle took me some time to figure out, mainly because I didn't know how many cube I was to take along or move...after I figured them out it was OK. However, I never used the square cube button in area 2 (with the laser catcher activator for door to back room). Also never used the square cube button in the next to last room either. Seems unintended?

Excellent map....

Thanks. Glad you liked it. I thought it was more of a medium difficulty. Maybe I should indicate that in difficulty category.

^ Orange gel? Perhaps your talking about my other puzzle "Orange Crush". If so, check out the reply I left and you'll see what's up with that one.

As for not using the square cube button in area 2 like you mentioned, or not using the button in the next to the last room, I'm not sure how you would do that. I designed it so that all buttons must be used. It kinda has me wondering. Maybe I'll go back and play-test it.

Anyhow, thanks for commenting.
