Three tests in one.

Seasoned players shouldn't have any trouble here. Beginners might discover techniques needed for more advanced chambers.

Have fun and be sure to drop me a line of feedback!

Changelog:

1.1: Implemented OR-logic instead of a distracting extraroom in case the player traps himself.

I really enjoyed this map. Not overly difficult but fun to play. I was wondering about the small room above the final room with the four buttons that allows you access back into the room before that one. Did I miss something or should I have used that access?

Glad you enjoyed it, thank you very much for the feedback!

The room above the exit is only there to prevent the player from being stuck in case he deactivates the laser before he brought the last cube in there. But it is indeed a bit confusing and I was not very happy with this solution. Thanks to some guides about OR-logic-buttons, I think I can get rid of that now and use a simple hand button instead.

That makes sense, kind of thought that was what it was for. I think the escape plan works but wonder if you might want to add a fizzled up there so the player doesn't do the easy thing and just shoot a portal in each from from up there.

The OR-Button will make the player able to do that now, but I think that's okay. The main "puzzle" here is to realize how to activate the laser receiver anyways. I figured there's no need to make this a walking excercise after that.

Thanks again for expressing the distraction that room caused!

No problem - looking forward to more. A lot of the new maps showing up have been a bit below par for me, so it's nice to play something fun and well put together.

Likewise! After a long series of dull 10-minute-maps I really enjoyed yours. :thumbup:

Thanks a bunch. Glad you enjoyed them. Being they were my first couple of maps, I was concerned that they sucked...I didn't realize the skill it took to make a map until I got the chance to try.

Getting the timing right on the last light bridge blocked by the lasers was a pretty frustrating experience, otherwise I really enjoyed this one, the design of the last chamber with the cubes and balls was particularly good.

Don't know if this is a bug with the editor or the game, but I placed the storage cube under the laser cube before I figured out what do do and when I removed the storage cube the laser cube just floated there :/

I'm sorry to hear you had frustrating trouble with the lightbridge area. The intended solution doesn't require any timing, you can take all the time you need. :thumbup:

The flying laser cube is a bug in the game:

Ahh right, what I did was this:

floated the cube across with the excursion funnel and moved past the first set of lasers as the cube passed the beam then simply waited for it to block the second one. I found timing the first half a bit tough. I'm guessing the correct way to solve this was to reverse the direction of the funnel? if so I withdraw my opinion, I should have spotted that

Oh, I can see why you found that way frustrating. The intended way is much easier and in plain view!

Hint: Look at the surface you shot the funnel portal on in your solution. Now look the other way.

Solution: When standing on the lightbridge, first shoot the funnel portal to the surface you can see across the gap. Wait for the cube to travel all the way and block the first laser field. Move forward to the middle of the bridge. Turn around. Shoot the funnel portal on the surface the cube is now being funneled against. Wait for the cube to travel all the way until it turns off the second laserfield.
