Description
Designed for the Dark Rozen Mapping Contest

Difficulty: Easy to Medium

Welcome everyone to my first monoportal puzzle! For this contest, entries were required to focus on an element placed on either the ceiling or the floor. I chose to use a funnel, but along with that I tried to include as many vertical moves as possible. As usual, minimal surfaces, minimal elements, no crazy moves. Good luck and have fun :D

This map includes some no-elements moves but all timings should be very lenient

There is a reset button that drops both cubes if you trap yourself. This is not needed in the intended solution


Extra stuff:
- I now have 45 followers on steam; that is insane to me! I am super happy that so many people enjoy what I make :]
- I turn 16 today!

Anyways, all feedback is appreciated

I like that the crucial move ( stacked sacrifice ) was done twice, but the opposite way around at the second time :-)

Why didn't you put the pedestal button closer to the piston platform? Would that be too obvious to you? This would at least shorten the way to the platform, because... you know, the first time I ran towards it I hit its corner when it still moved and so I miserably died ^^'

Plus, I'd love that cube catch to be mandatory, but it wasn't (at least one time the flinging cube had reached my level by itself).

How sacrilegious of me :O Good on you for coming back to this one to solve it legit, nice work! Thanks for playing

I fizzled so many companion cubes to finally solve this chamber... This guy Teo not only creates a map in which you can fizzle a companion cube, but also makes the test unsolvable without murdering more than one sentient cube. You monster.
But in all seriousness, great chamber!

Lol while I was trying to solve this chamber I ended up triggering the crouch fly glitch and just floated to the exit. I will definitely solve it for real eventually tho :)

Played this one before I started commenting. Still very good, and a great example of a ton of fundamental funnel techniques which I've seen reappear in other maps and even in my own work.

I don't know how you come up with these puzzles. I never could have solved this one on my own. And I have a PhD in mechanical engineering.

This puzzle is straight up genius. Only once I realized I could use what I had deduced must be the final move elsewhere, did I solve the puzzle. Instant favorite.
