A small map that shouldn't take to long to solve. Somewhere along the way, you'll have to be quick like a ferret.

Yes, it was rather short but still fun. I don't know if I got past the turrets the intended way though: I used the funnel, but the portal-able ceiling made it look as if you wanted the player to use red gel here.

I'm trying to figure out how you used the funnel to get past the turrets in which you would ride it past them but over-head and out of their sights. That because you would have to portal back to the funnel, jump on it, but where you would come out (to ride it past the turrets) seems out of reach to start with if you know what I mean. But yes, smearing the place with gel by using the potalable panels on the ceiling is the intended solution. That's where you make like a ferret on crack and get past them.

Here's what I did: I used one of the surfaces on the player height level at the goo pit and the one slightly above the player at the area you planned to have splashed with goo. When coming near that higher surface, simply face upwards, press W and place the funnel on the higher surface. With a little bit of luck that funnel will catch you and carry you safely to the other side of the turrets. Let me know if you need a video.

That's exactly what I tried to do to see if I could get higher up while riding the funnel by starting at player height and getting to the next one up. I tried a few times but couldn't do it. You're welcome to post a video if you wish to take the time to do so. I'm sure it would only have to be about 10 seconds of screen capture on just that part instead of the entire puzzle.

Cheers.

Thanks for the video. I see it was a bit of move up "and" move forward. I was trying to go just upwards, then shoot. LOL, just when you think you've got everything covered. I always wanted to try map making, and even though this new editor is easy to use, it does take a while when you Build/Compile/Test/Rebuild. Build/Compile/Test/Rebuild. Your brain can get just as sore as the ones playing it.

Once again, thanks for the video.

Liked it. Real easy, but I'm a sucker for the orange gel... Not much else to say, really.
