I think it can... If you stand one on a cube on the lightbridge you can shoot a portal to the very end of the tunnel. Once the cube dropped into the pit he can always get it out with the blue funnel.
I think you need to make the hole in the upper glasswindow smaller to prevent this.

You're right, this was possible. Edit: ah I see Jacu has done it as well. I made another update in v1.3 which just adds a glass panel to prevent this shooting angle. The intended solution is certainly not some evil special trick, it's just a bit different. Feel free to upload videos any time now. Mine is ready to go if you guys want.

@sicklebrick: thanks a lot, I appreciate that

@zivi: A hint if you want it...
Both cubes in laser room, both portals in the stairs room
Edit: Still a pretty evil solution :p

Anyways, what do I find upstairs? Yet another fizzler in the way!

I love it. This one is obviously brutally difficult but doesn't seem to need the super evil techniques that made Enigma for example unsolvable for me.

Hmm, that means I solved this part unintended too I did it with both cubes in laser room and one portal in each room

Wondering how Jacu did it now...

Here we go:

Setup:

Then go to stairs room and simply

It will activate stairs for a sec and you can enter upper area. I know, that it deactivates laser, but there is a way to activate it again ^^ Will do a vid this evening

I feel stupid, that looks so obvious right now...

Haha, don't... that's an uber solution! I tried to do something like that for over an hour and failed >.<

Hehe, the part you're on now is one of my favourite of any puzzle ever

Hearing that from you... makes me pretty certain this will take me ages again.

Edit: This is how I solved it on my first run... Some setups can be made much easier,

marKiu: also very unexpected methods in there. Mine is a bit different, without throwing or shoving. Easier for noob players like me to execute

Anyway, great map. It certainly fulfills the purpose it was built for. I'll try out your previous maps (or you can recommend which map of yours would be good practice)

Invorxt, my first map Kerplunk is the easiest I think.

Jacu: wow there's some unexpected stuff in that screenshot. I think Xtreger was doing something like that in pre-testing but I never understood it until now. I've followed your recipe to raise the ramp but right now I have no idea how you restarted the laser from there. Very curious about that.

Great challenge and really well thought out map.

I'm curious. How do you manage to make maps of this difficulty? Do you plan things in advance very well or how do you do it?

5/5 from me and I will try to finish it later.

Ok here is my solution video...

Haha, you make it look so easy! Seeing it done properly, there's a beautiful almost machine like quality to the last bit.
Don't suppose there's any real reason to post my part1 solution, but I've been bored...
