Cheers, I really liked that
You've found some really nice ways to keep the solutions tight without cramping up the map or overly complicationg the layout ^^
Wasn't as hard as say Preparations Three, but it's a nice relaxing challenge.

Thanks guys. It's not really my thing to do maps for people who aren't masochistic and I struggle to find the balance that makes a map simple and keeps it from being boring. So this went rather well apparently. One minor complaint was that the beginning was a bit confusing, so I just changed that part and made it more straightforward (no more funnel climbing).

I'm not sure I avoided that. I created a test version which is now published as a new map and which became more complicated as I was reintroducing the ideas I had cut from the simple version. Would you like to take a look and compare it to this one? To me the newer version is the better map but opinions may differ.

Nice, I'm on it now.. but am I allowed to cube toss?
I.e. throw from the square button up into the beam, or over the double fizzler next to the square button?

Edit:

I think this one was actually easier than the other one - probably 'cause of the timer, and the way that the button leaves the fizzler permanently open, but it did take longer to figure out 'cause I wasn't expecting it, heh. Looking forward to the hard version

I had to increase the length of the jump at the end and I did not notice that it makes you fly over the fizzler. It was supposed to take your portal away. It's been fixed now along with some other issues (annoying wall mounted flip panels). The rest of your playthrough was exactly as intended. Thanks!

This time there is no hard version planned as it was always supposed to be a beginner friendly stand-alone map. The second map popped up accidentally.

edit: about the cube toss, yeah it's obviously possible and I didn't worry about it this time. on harder maps I pay attention that it's not possible. and cube tossing will never be part of an intended solution if I can avoid it.

Aah coolcool, I think I figured it out now. Fun map though, thanks
