Yes, the few people I had testing it in alpha stages were able to figure it out for the most part. All of the puzzles have been solved by someone other than myself though, so I know they're possible, even though they're hard.

That's kind of bad, the creator of a map should always be able to complete his own map.

As for the map, some parts are far too hard. Like that first part, I couldn't do it, had to noclip to get past.

Otherwise, it's good. However there are some bugs I found;

A non-portable wall which should be portable.

A portal can be created behind the catcher, and I was able to activate the catcher by hitting it with the energy ball from behind.

Ok, so I finally got the map uploaded to the download database here, and the link in the original post has been changed to reflect this.

Heh, I didn't mean that I couldn't do them. I meant my assuredness about the map's completability was not based on my own ability to solve puzzles I already knew the answers to. =P

also the sides of the ball catcher and the ceiling and the floor... it catches the ball from all sides actually...

Is the difficulty due to clever puzzles or tedious design?

Erk, ok, I put the original download link back until this can get fixed. I can't garauntee it'll be available 100% of the time, but at least I know the file is there.
