The continuation of A la Tag!
Expirience Tag: the power of paint in the world of aperture science!

This is going to become a mappack, with me publish maps as I finish them.

This means I am also looking for someone to do some voice acting. So PM me if you are interested!

----====VERY IMPORTANT====----
-If you spam "e" (Use button), the gun will fly away. So, try to refrain from doing that.
-Do NOT move the mouse in the first few seconds when the map loads!
-Move your feet around (Ie, quickly pressing wasd) to update the gun's view/axis. This will force the gun to aim to where you are looking at.

This is part 2, so I suggest you play Part 1 first. Find it at Motanum?s A la Tag, Part 1

Enjoy and if you can try making a video, as I love to watch blind playthroughs!

I liked the added puzzle elements you added this time. I seemed to loose the gun many times though and i don't know why. I liked how you bridged the gaps with the indicator lights. Good Job!

Edit: I must have been bumping "E" and didn't realize it. Thanks

The gun is a turret. So if you press E while looking at nothing in particular, you get de attached.

This was actually a pretty cool map. Played both the first and second parts back to back to get a feel, and dug it through and through. It was a bit weird having to move while spraying the gel to get it to aim properly, but I got over that pretty quick.

Still a fantastic concept, but needs work... The jumping does help with the aiming.. in room 2... I lost the gun? could still shoot, but not very directional..

Here' my deaf, dumb and blind playthrough, especially the dumb part. Sorry this takes over 28 minutes, but I know that I really suck at blue gel puzzles, so I REALLY took my time on each step.

I think I'll skip them if you do any more of these, they're really not my cup of tea. Obviously, certain other players really enjoy flying around and finding easter eggs in places I would never even attempt to get to. More power to them. At least it's fun for me to watch.

I liked your transitions. The level of detailing in your maps is always outstanding, and this is no exception. The indicator light connection was interesting, but I really didn't know what it was until someone pointed it out. Overall, 4/5 from me.

Try installing a 2nd copy of the game to test stuff like that, or placing all custom content in the dlc2/dlc3 folders so you can easily check

Really good map, Motanum! You've got a nice series of maps going here already, I personally can't wait for the introduction of Propulsion Gel. And I think Excursion Funnels can be used here at a whole new level, so I'd love to see some more of those!

Also, if this is really supposed to resemble Tag, sorta' anyway, are you by any chance going to try to implement sticky gel too, later on?

One thing I would change, is make the tuberide transition slower. You've got a nice vista there, I would've loved to go back and see it for a bit longer.

Thanks for the video! Its nice to see someone actually reads the gun dettached messages and reloads a save instead of trying to push their luck.

You skipped one part! I will fix that! Thanks for bringing that to my attention.

I totally skipped the funnel puzzle by getting up to where the Easter egg would be and doing a huge bounce from there over to the laser cube.

If you are good enough to see and do that. You deserve it!

I won't be able to play this today, but I'm very excited for it!
I really enjoyed the first part, can't wait to play this one.
I will report back as soon as I play!
