Hm.. I wait in the elevator, but it doesn't move. A bug?

That's happened to me a few times. Typing "reload" in console usually gets it running.
I'm not sure why this happens, as it seems to be random.

A fairly decent puzzle in an attractive setting. I enjoyed playing it.

As others have noted, you can get stuck [spoiler]if you put the normal cube on the button. I was surprised that hitting the laser target again didn't fizzle it and drop a new cube.[/spoiler]

I also saw weirdness at the exit, like looking through an infinite regression of portals slowly filling with light. Once inside, it cleared up.

Summary: Looks good, puzzle difficulty medium, player skill medium, fun to play. A solid 4/5 from me.

Were you playing this with a controller? O_o

You're a very astute watcher. Yes, it's my note's touchpad.

Bug: you can get into the "authorized personnel only" area and get some noclips inside.

I must've forgotten to put playerclips up... Well, I'll look into the exit areaportal issue and fix this. I'll try and get an update out later today

[EDIT]
I'm quite surprised how many different ways people are activating that laser-power cube dispenser.

Did I activate the laser-power cube dispenser the intended way?

Nice map, I didn't find that normal cube dropper at first.
Also, there might be a glitch of the lower floor laser cube dropper, sometimes the cube won't fall.

And here is my gameplay

@Portal2Two, I haven't seen anyone do it the way I intended, but the most common method is to [spoiler]open the trapdoor with one laser cube, then use the other to shine it thru a portal on the white wall directly opposite the laser[/spoiler]
I'm actually pretty happy that people are coming up with different ways to do it.

If people are getting the exit glitch with the updated map, then I haven't the slightest idea how to fix it. The logic system in place should be pretty foolproof

Great puzzle, very clever. I needed my daughter's help to figure out how to open the exit door. (She's watching over my shoulder as I type this.) [spoiler]I also thought I needed to put the normal cube on the button[/spoiler], but she figured out that was a mistake.

To get the normal cube, I [spoiler]used a cube to divert the top laser beam into a wall with a portal on it, jumped down, put the other portal on the wall opposite the dispenser and kept adjusting it until the cube fell out[/spoiler].

Very nice map. Enjoyed the big room and puzzle, just wish there was something else going on inside the expanse - even just visual. Like everyone else I put the cube on the button - mistake and had to retrieve. No problem on exit.
Thanks for creating - look forward to more.

Definitly a 5. I love how you allow the panels to fall during gameplay...cool effects.

You really thought this through, great puzzle, great visuals, excelent animation-smooth. I noticed the problem with the cube cause I had to go swimming to start over. My nephew played the map as well and I noticed he used the portals more efficently then me and didn't have to walk as much.

I'll be looking forward to more of your maps.
Thanks!
