Kudos to the author for fitting 3 quality chambers in such a lightweight map - the others in that range look terrible. Clean, with stark shadows and lots of glass + neons.

Gameplay wise, the difficulty curve along the 3 rooms ranges from the claustrophobic and dangerous no. 1; to no. 2 open to experimentation and the one looker here; and finally the canon but emotionless no. 3 (

Spoiler
you are number six
).

We managed to avoid difficulty spikes on room 2 by acrobatics: we jumped from the lightbridge to the cage with the round hole, by the exit - a portal made on the white wall there can connect to the exit room. Also, in room 3 we ran and jumped from the blue gel with need for that last fling.

the hills are alive... with the sound of music

I'm playing custom maps and record my first time of playing them. So the run is not perfect and may not use only intended ways, but maybe it can let you see how other people may understand the map or you could just enjoy someone playing this map for entertainment.
Anyways, here is the recording:

Also note the video description for more feedback and my signature for additional project information.

there's a wide unintended solution in chamber 3 that

Spoiler
involves only 4 portals and a bunch of seconds to be done (no repulsion gel or propulsion gel using needed)
.

I'm sure u've already spotted that solution before, but if you'll ask i'll post a video for it.

Great map.

Spoiler
We solved the first chamber in an unintended way because it is possible to burn the turrents with laser by placing a portal right where turrets aim.

Test Chamber 74:
(percentage calculation sphere self-test failed!)
108.1% done, -8.1% remaining...
