Disappointingly easy

First time I've ever taken a cube with me on an elevator .

Yeah, that was pretty awesome! Beautifully done and a seemingly simple task that got trickier as it went along. Nicely done. Regarding the final placement, was the intended solution to sit the cube between the emitter and relay and positioned such that the laser just skirts the relay but still hits the portaled-to-target? It worked and I'm curious if that's what you had in mind.

Pretty sure I just finished that in a way that was unintended. I managed to sit the reflector cube on an angle right next to the laser receiver on the floor and it shot straight down into it... looking at the picutres I think the intended solution was much more complicated than that. Map looks good though

Nice mapping!

Biraz dağınık olmuş :)

For the record, you can shoot a portal on the black wall in the evlivator exit room. Thought you might want to know.

Thanks for the playthrough videos everyone, very intersting to watch!

@Lucky: Yes, this was made entirely in hammer
austinzolo May 13, 2013 @ 5:13pm 
Pretty cool. For some reason I like Aperture better when it's all broken.
Spamfan Gaming May 13, 2013 @ 7:54am 
@Lucky
I'm assuming Hammer : )
Lucky May 13, 2013 @ 6:01am 
Nice Work
Is this created with the Community Editor or Hammer Editor???
DR3y May 12, 2013 @ 5:49pm 
You can drop the cube in the stairs pit and be stuck, also you can place a portal in the black void in the elevator walls :)
Jade BGE May 12, 2013 @ 2:29pm 
Pretty. I didn't use the portal gun. Thanks for your work.
PsychoBR May 12, 2013 @ 2:20pm 
Nice puzzle! Very fun. Congrats for the great Hammer work. Thumbs up!
I recorded my gameplay (valve DEM file format): Download [dl.dropboxusercontent.com]. Comments inside video.

Turrets highly explosive. Handle with care

Hey, nice one, I think you should continue too.
alex the human May 12, 2013 @ 11:15am 
Because I solved it by some clever cube angling...
alex the human May 12, 2013 @ 11:15am 
Were we supposed to get the portal gun?
Brouce May 12, 2013 @ 2:07am 
Superb design. I spent too much time on it not noticing an usefull white patch...
Rector May 11, 2013 @ 9:24pm 
The details were nice but it lacks story.
Here's my blindrun:

Tell me if there are any unintended solutions! ;)

Thumbs up!
Thanks for mapping! :D
Cheers! :)
Anachronistic ALLOS May 11, 2013 @ 3:19pm 
Nice map, but I could get the door open without getting the gun just by knocking the laser cube so it pointed downwards and pushing it onto the floor laser node.
Tuleby May 11, 2013 @ 12:49pm 
Very short, but really nice level design. ;)
Scoots  [author] May 10, 2013 @ 11:38pm 
Thanks for the feedback everyone!
This was the first act so only intended to be a short chamber.

Regarding facing the cube down, I wasnt aware that was even possible, so it was an oversight on my part that never arose during testing.
Fengor May 10, 2013 @ 9:18pm 
Short, but it was enough to entice me to check out the second act.
ohiomambo May 10, 2013 @ 3:57pm 
Very short, but great start of the serie! You created a great atmosphere, I really enjoyed it. Of we go to the next part
wildgoosespeeder May 10, 2013 @ 3:15pm 
What was the point of the button-activated stairs? Using the pedestal-activated blue portal only portal gun made it easy to get up there. Also I see a potential to get the laser cube pointed down into the laser catcher and never obtaining the portal gun. Just move the laser catcher out of line with the orange auto-portal.
Jillo22 May 10, 2013 @ 2:36pm 
where do you get the portal gun?
Andi May 10, 2013 @ 2:13pm 
Love the run down look of Aperture. Nice puzzle but a bit short. Looking forward to seeing more. Thumbs up.

Would you mind trying on of mine?

Nice, start, although very short. I hope the following acts are more substantial. I also did not need the portal gun to open the exit. There is a spot where you can just put the reflection cube down where it lights up the laser receiver and opens the door. Also, while messing about I put the cube down in front of the orange portal and it fell through the ground and disappeared.
Citik May 10, 2013 @ 9:56am 
A great map, but to short :S ... I will do the Act 2 ;)
Oli - old May 10, 2013 @ 8:30am 
cool ill play this
Scoots  [author] May 10, 2013 @ 12:43am 
@temporarymanwastaken - Nice, I'll have to keep that trick in mind in future playtesting then ;) cheers!

@Opie - Its meant to be Eile, its Other/Annother in Gaelic, as in Annother story.
Cakeface May 9, 2013 @ 6:08pm 
i imagined that if you could get the laser relay to point downward, you could put it on top the door opener laser receptor and not need the portal gun - but i played thru and retrieved the gun and aimed the laser from the ceiling - <3 these dirty old chambers
STARPLANT May 9, 2013 @ 3:53pm 
The title is meant to be Exile: Act 1 am I right?
󰀉tempeh󰀉 May 9, 2013 @ 3:38pm 
Stand on the cube and roll it so it points down.
Scoots  [author] May 9, 2013 @ 2:50pm 
Thanks for your feedback all, glad you enjoyed it!

@temporarymanwastaken - how did you manage that? I'm impressed that someone has managed it, I hadnt thought it possible.
󰀉tempeh󰀉 May 9, 2013 @ 2:44pm 
Nice design. Unfortunately, it's possible to solve the puzzle without the portal gun.
May 9, 2013 @ 11:12am 
Nice map! Interested in playing your future maps!
Tomki May 9, 2013 @ 9:40am
