E: There is a missing texture in the start. I forgot to add a fix for speed paint sign to the .bsp

Three-parter scenario in canonical Clean, comprises two short chambers introducing a bigger third. Those were quick affairs, each just a single movement puzzle; CH3 felt instead more fleshed out, lasting and built better with several item interactions and testing elements involved.

Much player exchange and some screw-ups bagged us some 15 mins. If I may suggest, those walls as gray as the floorsceilings could use more contrast (black, or emboss): also consider a cube overquest for those fly-by first two chambers. Overall, good job.

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

Thanks, I'll try to find a way to add that "companion cube" quest somehow :D

Chamber 3 is now slightly more complex :D

Didn't add "a cube overquest" yet, maybe another map!

this map is one of THE BEST i have played.
i LOVE it. make more.

An interesting and refined selection of easy maps, visually appealing and thought out.

Spoiler
The first chamber is an enjoyable time trial that involves using the propulsion gel in two ways at once (as a horizontal velocity changer as well as a vertical). My only criticism for the first chamber is that it's mostly a single player puzzle that is simply taking advantage of the two extra portals from player two.

Spoiler
The second chamber was very similar to chamber one, except we're now racing against a laser wall. The moveable laser wall is a unique addition to the assortments of "penalty" devices the game already contains. The most interesting part of this chamber is how player one has to listen to the moving wall when transporting the left behind player, rather than see the actual device.

The last chamber was the most developed in terms of complexity and map design, but losing the redirection box can be a pain and tedious due to its puzzle set-up. Otherwise, a nice chamber and puzzle.

Keep up the good work.

Thanks for comments again, it is great to see that people like this map :D

Liked the map, first chamber was very good for it's fairly rarely used mechanics (

Spoiler
although the button seemed a little bit high for the speed at which you come out the portal
), second chamber was a bit finicky but still quite reasonable, third took us about 3 minutes longer than it should have due to us stupidly not noticing something.

Nice map overall. A small glitch: I got stuck in the movable glass plate in the first chamber, had to use noclip.
