Hi. I have this fling set up, and wanted to know if you guys think its too hard. Is it? Or is it just aggravating?

Probably will require at least two to three flings.

Your Task: Get behind the portal cleanser by flinging with the angled platform.

Thanks

Very annoying, mostly because the slanted bit is so close to the ground, giving you almost no time to adjust your viewing angle to place the next portal.

Yeah it's way to tough, mainly takes forever to get enough speed.

I figured that since it's simply a test map that I wouldn't waste the bandwidth

Anyway - I'll angle it up a few more degrees which would make it a ton easier. When my map reaches beta I'll have you guys test again

Oh and also the platform will be tilting on a hinge (similar to that of Testchamber ~12, the one that you have to fling off of to get Glados to say "weeeee" - which means that the platform will rise a bit as it hinges up.

It's certainly possible, but it took me like, 10 tries, and some experimentation. Mellow it out a bit, for sure.

Edit: Did it a second time, and good God that was annoying.

Thanks for the feedback. The fling that I will be using of this type in my map will certainly be easier.
