A 7 part series of maps in the destroyed/overgrown style, explore and puzzle in the ruins of the Aperture Laboratories as you try to escape. Puzzles will be of mostly Medium/Hard difficulty, no ninja moves required. It should take around 2-3 hours to complete.

Great maps, enjoyed it. But what is the lightbridge in the third room of part 4 good for? I made it like here:

What was your intended solution for that room?

Yea a lot of people skip the light bridge by doing that, but for people who dont jump of cubes and buttons they can use it, you just did it the alternate way, glad you enjoyed.

WOW thanks RectorRocks
I look forward to watching them all ^_^

All intended bar your part 1 solution which was just painful to watch you try over and over to align that thing, either of the 2 actual solutions would be a lot easier

Finally got around to continue after having played part 0 a while ago. Part 1 is pretty nice overall. Both puzzles were of a nice diffculty. I liked the fall from the walkway. The destruction in the companion cube room before being presented with the voting screen seemed a bit weird with all the sparks, but maybe that'll make sense when I start Part 2.

The only problem was that I had very noticeable lag on my computer. I think it's most likely because a lot of parts that could be func_details are world brushes. Check my Steam screenshots for some example areas where you might be able to improve performance.
