Very interesting.

Donderbus There are two acceptable ways to exit. I only showed the one. Without asking I know how you did it. The way I pushed the ceiling button. Thanks for testing.
Stagger Lee I'm not sure if there's another way. That's how I did it. Thanks for testing.

Hope to see you both back here in my shop soon. Come when you can but in the meantime have fun.

Took me a while to get the first cube across the goo and I probably cheated doing it because it felt like it. (I passed it under the fizzler). After I had the cube over there, the rest was easy but fun. Speedy thing goes in, speedy thing goes out. : )

Hey Stormsend. Nice test.
I watched your vid and I didn't use the funnel in the end
Thanks for mapping.

Í used the funnel with some exact timing, but your accompanied video doesn't use it at all. That is probably not how you intended it in the first place.. Especially the <spoiler>cube under the emancipation field trick </spoiler> is probably not the way you had in mind..

That was more tester abuse than of the cube, but an interesting set of mechnix! Didn't fuss the cube around, but jumped myself!

I enjoyed this little map, it's a rather fresh twist on using the cube and the respawn point, I liked the fizzler "dodge" technique you set up. The only issue I had was getting the cube stuck in the funnel compartment after I funneled it up to the ceiling button. But some fast thinking and I redirected it elsewhere 2nd time around. I liked this, well done.

Thanks mood. Glad you liked it. I've subbed your latest. Will play when I can. I'm away on a mission and don't know when I'll be back. No worry.

good map
I did not use the funel to solve this.
but took me a while for the physical solution.
I have only one of your maps left to play.
& have noticed it is over a month since you have been visible on portal.
eg. comments / publishing maps etc.
I hope you are OK ?

Nice and funny:steamhappy: one (nice twist in the first cube).

I thought I was the only one who'd be bugging out on the 23rd. Don't wanna be in Jacksonville.

I forgive you. Maybe my forgiving you will help on the 23rd. You think?

There is a hidden switch that really needn't be exposed. It would cause confusion so I left it in the background. I didn't know you could tell when it was operating. It just makes the funnel act like it was on a timer. And yes that was supposed to be a little dry humor with the 'hidden' cc.
kimist108 Sep 15, 2015 @ 3:34pm 
When you press the button for the funnel, it says a cube is disintegrating. Then, evil person that you are, you said in a comment to jgaultney, something about a hidden cc. I totally missed the humor and looked for it. Then I watched his walkthrough. Twice. Then, it hit me. EVIL, EVIL, EVIL

High praise?
kimist108 Sep 14, 2015 @ 7:37pm 
You are a cruel, mean person.
stormsend  [author] Sep 14, 2015 @ 5:13pm 
Yeah I tried to show both ways to solve this one. You can do the fling thing with the portals or use the funnel if you're quick. Either way is acceptable. I hope you can find that pesky companion cube that ran away. I know he's 'hiding' somewhere in that chamber. Thank you for playing another one.

I used the funnel to get the second cube, which was easier for me. The cube dropping sound confused me until I read the comment about a hidden cube. Off to see if I can find it.

Happened to me too. I just respawned it. Thanks for playing.

I wish there was a fizzler with the funnel. Cubes can get stuck in there due to the grating glitch.
stormsend  [author] Sep 5, 2015 @ 3:49am 
Thank you Jade. Happy to see you got through and had fun doing it.
I appreciate the video jgaultney. I noticed you found the hidden CC. Glad you didn't give up. There are actually two ways to get the second cube and also to exit. You used the one without the funnel. I don't know if either is harder. Thank you for your consideration.

A very enjoyable puzzle! I managed to not use the funnel although I did
realize how I was supposed to use it, after reaching the exit :)
The following is a DEMO of my blind-run (a first for me). A demo,
because the video would have been too big for me to upload. It's about
15.5 minutes long, mostly of me trying things that don't work or standing
there trying to think of something else to try. :steamhappy:
