I thought there would be some ways to break it. You found more than the ones I knew of. Congratulations! (I might fix some of them but a ninja will always find another way...)

WOW Cobra! That was amazing!

I recorded a blind run, not a solution video, so it's around 20 min. I'm having problems with Youtube today and failed to upload 2 times... I'll try again later!

OK, this was a very nice map! Was really funny and fairly long overall, congratulations!

I liked much the puzzles even though they were not too difficult for my kind For the first chamber solution, as you'll see in the video, I missed the white portalable wall at the uppermost area so I tried to figure out a really twisted way to get the cube there first and me later (to no avail though)

However, I rated it 4/5 because some easy-to-fix stuff (I feel kind of outdated after watching how cobra destroyed it, but still...):

suggestions for a fix
[spoiler]1. There is a problem (that you'll check in the video) with a savepoint near the floor button with the "square" signage in last chamber, I had to nocllip as when it fired the saving i was falling in the goo

2. In last chanmber there are many possible exploits... more of them after watching Cobra's vide. One of them you'll see in the video: there is no need for the rotating panel (square signage) as you can do the multiple flinging maneuver and shoot a portal on last elevated platform... easily fixable by extending annother glass window there!

3. The general feeling with the puzzles were that you had to search a lot to understand what was each thing for... or where to head to first... I guess some more indicating signage would be great. Also you could create a custom signage for the turning catapults... For example in chamber 1 I went right to the upper floor to get a cube as the signage suggested, but I couldn't since I needed the other one in first floor reach the second cube...

4. I've seen that you ignored some of the suggestions at the TWP showcasing thread. Overall the button's frames would be necessary. Don't you like them or what? I think I only saw a couple of buttons with frames... I think all the rest is pretty much detailed and I liked the lighting as I already mentioned [/spoiler]
Dispite those tiny things, the map is really good!

Thanks for creating!

You shouldn't worry about patching much, except the trick where in the 2nd part I flung across from falling through the broken floor. Perhaps you could have the white wall covered up until you hit the ground.

Anyways, amazing map! Love the design, look, and GLaDOS dialogue. 5/5!

I'm currently working on fixing the exploits, but I'll try to fix the things you mentioned here aswell. There's just one thing about those button frames. I've actually got a frame below every floor button except for the cube buttons. The frames are lowered so the top is flush with the floor, but this is the way valve often did it so I did the same. The cube buttons don't have a frame, so they just have to be that way.

Cube buttons do have frames. I stole the cube buttons' frame (actually I stole the whole thing: the cube button frame, the cube button, and the little orange light ) from the cube button instance in the sdk_content/instances/p2editor folder.

I'll take the cube button frame from p2editor. I didn't know about them, always thought they looked a bit bad with no frame...
