what on earth is this ?

This was actually more challenging than I thought it would be and it had some nice new elements to it that took me awhile to figure out. I enjoyed this map a lot. I don't know if this was intended, but I [spoiler]portal bumped on the floor[/spoiler]on my way back with the cube. Couldn't figure out any other way because it was not working [spoiler]with me and the cube flinging together.[/spoiler] We kept crashing into each other and fatally slowing down.

I'll see if I can break this one as well

Hopefully a test chamber

You should [spoiler]use the portal that you used to go back to the beginning to take the cube with you to the 2nd section of the map[/spoiler]

I'm uploading a walktrough for this map

Well, the way I got back to the beginning didn't allow me to do that. What I did to get back was [spoiler]portal the floor where I started the fling[/spoiler] and then I [spoiler]portaled the wall[/spoiler] to get out from behind the death rays.

There is still a problem where you get stuck on the other side if you place both your portal over there before you've gotten the cube.

Is the "laser-to-raise-stairs really necessary? Removing that would solve this problem.

I don't think it's a real problem, gettin stuck is a part of the game.
[spoiler]There are 2 main problems:
Witout a place where you are forced to put the cube (in this case on top of the laser beam) it will be hard to figure out how turn off the laser grid.
The other big problem is that without the cube needed to raise the stairs it will be extremely easy to go back to the other side, and this will cause the first technical jump (and so all the map) to become totally useless.[/spoiler]

I see what I did wrong. I flung over initially using both portals, so my only way back to get the cube was to place a portal [spoiler]on the floor next to the laser grid[/spoiler] and one on the wall. Then my only way back with the cube was to either fling over again (which doesn't work very well) or [spoiler]portal bump[/spoiler], which did!

Getting stuck is not part of the game...
