It's not that you have to transfer 71 cubes, it's just that it's my 71st puzzle. However, you do have to transfer cubes that you use to get through. This means you'll have to transfer the cube back to yourself from where you left it to continue on. There's no companion cube, but a new cube every so often. It consists of cubes, buttons and tractor beams.

As you can see in the first chamber,

you have to reverse polarity on the beam. I made sure the portalable panels were laid out so that the player can not do a portal switch and let the cube drop into another beam to get the cube to the next button.

As for the second chamber, that was unintended.

I guess I missed that one. Tossing the cube through the laser field and then tractor beaming it to the button was unintended. That was the only part that was unintended. The correct solution is kind of like the first chamber. Tractor beam the cube to the button (high above you) to de-activate the laser field, walk into that area, portal switch so that the cube is transfered into that area, then place the cube on the button. The next step is to portal back to the other area to use the tractor beam to lift yourself up to chamber 3. Of course transferring the cube to chamber 3 was correct.

I guess I'll have to fix that.

Thanks for sharing your video.

You're right. I get "error" when I click on download. Here's a direct link.

If I go to my item (using my web browser) it shows.

Here is also a link to my workshop page.

That was my bad. I edited the map and republished it. The workshop usually over-writes the old one and the URL stays the same. What happens now is the workshop creates a new item. I deleted the old one on the workshop but forgot to come back here and update the link. It's now updated here on TWP.

Glad I came back. Very nice map and not as hard as 'Banzai' to move the cube around. Well done. Thanks for creating...
