This is the first map of a series that I plan to do, called "The Lone Future-Starter". is a short map but i hope you guys enjoy =).
I tried to create some different puzzles, and also used a small concept of my previous map (Sp_Custom) nothing much different, but who played the previous map will understand how concept is.

Special thanks for the beta testers:
-Carlos
-Sergio
-Lord Vampyr

Really enjoyed this first installment. I'm certainly looking forward to more chapters. The visuals were amazing, especially the office area just outside chamber. I liked how it felt very expansive and there were plenty of areas to explore. Thanks for creating!

Thanks for the feedback, I'm glad you liked it, and i'm certainly a little relieved, I was worried that many details would ultimately distracting the player from the focus of solving the puzzles =), in the end was just a silly preoccupation.

I only have one negative point; I wish there was more!!!
Awesome amount of details, very nicely done! simple 5/5.
One thing that got me for a while though was that I didn't thing I could open the door to the room with the orange gel

Wow, so many maps go down the "new start" route and kina suck.. but this one's pretty awesome. It felt huge, but with great attention to detail bloody everywhere, and looked a lot like everyone had left in a real hurry.
The painty bit took a while for the same reason LP said, and I got myself stuck in the double lift area once or twice, but 5/5 anyway

thanks guys =), and I am already noting the bugs to fix, I'll wait until more bugs show up for correct it all at once, as the map requires a lot of illumination it takes a long time to compile (my pc is a litlle old lol).

Wow this is an amazing map. The vista was expansive and I had a lot of places to explore seeking the way out. Keep it up and I really hope to see the next one. Thanks for creating.

This looked absolutely fantastic and had a great atmosphere, which is why I kind of feel bad for saying I didn't really enjoy it so much in terms of gameplay... Maybe I was just having a stupid day or something, but after picking up the portal gun and shooting a portal past the blocked doorway I could not find a portal surface to go through anywhere in the offices or stasis chamber. After literally ten minutes of searching I gave up and no-clipped through. Then again in the last puzzle I spent ages wandering around hopelessly before I found that surface up above and behind you; a bit of extra light up there might make it a bit easier to see...

There wasn't really any thinking involved with anything, just searching. Still, I loved just walking around looking at it, and will still definitely be looking forward to the next instalment.

Weird. The other location of the portal surface is literally an old white panel sitting in a corner conspicuously. This walkthrough video might help you. Skip to exactly 1 minute in:
