ya i looked at that. i guess duff could make that goo a little wider so you HAVE to fling.

I think I didn't fling mostly because the doors closed behind me after I entered the room, so I didn't know that it would open again upon getting close to it.

In fact, I was at the disable forcefield switch wondering what to do before I backtracked and flung myself to the switch that opened the tall, final room, figuring that I had to have some vertical momentum somewhere to hit the switch, besides the fan room. :p

Making the doors permanently open would've made me fling that goo-pit for certain.

I thought the "X" on the wall was a pretty good indicator that you were supposed to fling there.

I liked this map a lot. It was lengthy, but never got boring. My only complaint is that all the [spoiler]backtracking and portal tunneling[/spoiler] required to solve the puzzle after the incinerator left me feeling like I had cheated, since traditional portal puzzles don't require that sort of thing (and if you do do that sort of thing, it usually means you're doing it wrong).

oh i LOVE to have a feeling of having cheated. and i love back tracking... and i love bts... and i'm waiting for ... outside...

sorry, I'm just dumb. I was referring to this:

didnt notice the pipes on the left till now.

I flinged my self into the vent...

The map is really interesting, the setup was great although it felt arbitrary, I liked the backtracking. The cube part felt out of place, I believe it could have been a regular cube and I really loved the ending it's different from the clich? that roams Portal custom maps, the typical "heres your cake ending" I find this ending to be more Portal style: "the cake's a lie".

Yeah, them pipes are there for a reason XD

Great map Duffe, a few parts had me for a bit, especially the first part you need to back track (It was 11 pm and I couldn't think XD)

Edit: lol <(^^,)>

I solved that particular part by jumping forward, and then crouching.

I thought the X was supposed to lead me to jump onto the near pipe, and then onto the far one, and then across the room. Now that I look at it a fling is REALLY obvious though.

Definitely agree on making the doors stay open. I was always afraid that I'd be unable to open it, or it'd crap out on me and fall apart since that seemed to be a running (and very cool) trend throughout the map.

Great map!
Nice puzzles, albeit pretty hard.
I gave up after the incinerator. Watching the video showed me the real solution which is a bit...odd. No other complaints though. Hard is good! That just threw me off because I didn't suspect so much backtracking was needed.

Come on, guys. Someone who has made it through this map, get me a freakin' review already.

Please?

Great map.

Fun to leave for a month and come back to such a great, challenging map. Great job!

Ah, yes, when you [spoiler]jump into the ventilator to fling yourself[/spoiler] there is a part where you can just jump down under. Instead of killing you, it crashes the game completely.

I suggest fixing that part.

Can you please tell me where you got those skins? Or if you made them can you please send them to me? I would appreciate it. One last thing can you tell me how to apply them?
