great map! really enjoy the world building of this series, (im only on episode 2 so far) but i will say this one has two small issues, one of the walls thats important to use towards the end is far too dark and hard to notice (i wont say which since it spoils the solution) and the door model used at the end of the map doesnt make much sense, ive only ever seen that door used as a no-entry door that never opens, would make more sense to use the portal 1 doors you used in episode 1, or the underground doors.

Cool exploration level but it has a problem, [spoiler[ there is a part where you have to use a vertical lightbridge to stop turret fire, the problem is that the game for some reason wouldn't let me enter in the portal occupied by the lightbridge cuz it didn't have enough space on the side. The surface where the bridge meets the portal should be wider, to allow the portal to be slightly de-centered making the passage easier, otherwise the level seems impossible![/spoiler[

The thing that confused me was that the lift didn't lift initially. Either that or it was so slow to lift that I hopped on and then hopped off again before it started and kept looking for a switch or something to activate it. Wasted a lot of time that way.

I love your map is focused on story telling through environment. rather than normal puzzle solving

I have no idea what the glitch is, but in episode 2 I can't get through the door in the office space prior to entering the turret factory...it's the office where you can look directly out the window and see turrets being assembled and then placed in a box. There's a patch of white board on the other side of the door but for whatever reason it won't let me create a portal there. I've tried every conceivable angle, etc...weird.

Didn't see any "Easter Egg", but it took me forever how to get past the turrets in that big room with the elevator.
Droidbuster Jun 5, 2019 @ 8:03am 
Personally,I was VERY pleasantly surprised by that *easter egg*.

Monotonous episodes 1 and 2; no real puzzles yet. I remain on my hunger. Thumb up for the Hammer work anyway.

Gotta say, the past 2 levels were ♥♥♥♥. The first level had no puzzle to it, and this level requires the player to make a guess that doesn't, and shouldn't be logically made. Not the mention, the pass two levels are extremely short.

Like first episode, this is mostly exploration and no thinking needed. Sorry I don't like it.

nice job, great style, thank you. :o)

Might be the worst map ever.

Enjoyed Cosmogony Episode2. Good looking chambers. Has more puzzles and player can interact more than Episode1. Happy this level has robots. Quite easy for a PORTAL1 or 2 gamer. and a good step-up from Episode1. More portal use and puzzles with Gels, Lasers and Robots would be even better.COSMOGONY is FINE WORK. Big effort to create. Cosmogony is like a Portal2 Epansion Pack. I love it. Many thanks. :steamhappy:

Great chamber! Thanks!

Always a pleasure to play again ! Thanks

EXCELLENT

I had no problems with the turrets, good map!!! If you use use the bridge in the right way they don't kill you ;)
ID-10T Aug 20, 2017 @ 2:33am 
I dunno, man. this is the very first chamber I've rage-quit. the technicalities of how exactly you have to move, well after you've figured out what needs to be done, far outweigh the intent of the game, to me.

I really appreciate the extent to which you go to make levels that are comparable with those of the game deisgners themselves. but this one has gone too far into skill and far less into abstract thinking for me to feel it's even worth finishing. mainly I'm just frustrated after realizing the solution to my first couple of hurdles loooooooooooong before being able to achieve them.

Celtic Magic! you should still have the virtucal light bridge selected so use that to block the turrets.

The lift guarded by turrets is impossible. I can only grab and kill the two turrets at ground level. The others aren't affected if you throw the first two turrets at them, nor do those turrets block bullets like they normally do. I also can't grab any of the four turrets targeting the lift. I've tried climbing on the storage containers, I've tried going for momentum out of higher portals on the wall by the door; nothing is working. There aren't any portal surfaces further up as far as I can tell as it's foggy.

Also, turrets are able to kill me far more quickly than they normally can - why?

This chapter is poorly designed as there's literally no way to progress beyond this point. Until I find a way past these unbelievably long-range turrets I'm going to have to give it a thumbs-down.

Nice map, well made and sufficiently lit. It was a bit dark and "misty" in places but I assume that was the ambience you were going for and the overall effect was quite good, IMHO. Despite looking everywhere I could I never saw the odd portrait, the gman or the disk I see people talking about, so I guess I missed some of the rooms somewhere. Still it was a fun romp through the various buildings and I'm looking forward to further episodes. I may redo this one in hopes of finding the various secrets I apparently missed. I for one thought the contrivance of being able to switch back and forth between vertical and horizontal lightbridges was a really clever idea, one just has to keep track of one's portals to avoid having to go back. Thanks for your efforts and on to the next episode.

This chamber had some very creative solutions. Simply excellent work!
DR3y  [author] Feb 21, 2017 @ 10:44am 
Hi. You can check the video in this page for the intended solution.

Kept getting annoyed going back and forth and around all of the corners, it was like a maze and I did not like it. I have played your other maps and they are good, so I know you are a good creator.
XIII Feb 21, 2017 @ 6:39am 
I could be wrong, but if you activate the light bridges before you shoot aportal, your stuck.

How do you survive the lift?
