[SP] Hole in the Sky

PreviousPage 4 of 4

Too much dying for my taste. I endured the dying repeatedly on the first part only to die repeately on the second part. Would have liked to see the next sections, but I'm out....

Like other posters, I got frustrated by the jump back to the ramp, but I chalk that up to my general lack of skill and the fact that I play with a controller instead of a mouse. Still, I think it's worth noting in the description that there's a difficult jump.

Also like other posters, I never actually figured out how the mirrors worked. I never activated the lightbridge, and just stumbled onto the mirror effect while aiming the laser at a target.

I liked the variety of puzzles, but not the fact that some of them were either not clear how they worked (e.g. pneumo) or didn't work well even if it was clear what you should do (mirrors). Just a 3/5 from me.

Not sure what is wrong with this map. I load it and i'm in the elevator at the start, and nothing else happens.

I'm playing custom maps and record my first time of playing them. So the run is not perfect and may not use only intended ways, but maybe it can let you see how other people may understand the map or you could just enjoy someone playing this map for entertainment.
Anyways, here is the recording:

Thanks for the playthrough, really helps me see things i could have improved on.

Like Xello, I am stuck in the elevator when I load the map. Played a lot of custom map and this is the first time I have a problem. Anyone has played it recently? Anyone any idea what's the problem?

PS: the walkthrough clearly show that the elevator should be moving

One easy solution is to noclip out of the elevator, then get back to normal.

Also for me it worked when I exit and restarted the game later.

This happens when the last map you played doesn't end properly, e.g., it leaves you stuck in an elevator. Solution is to return to the console and quit, then restart the game to get a clean reset.

This map was OK. The first room was brutal for me, but I finally made it after about 50 tries.

Having to jump over lasers on a light bridge was a pain, but the laser puzzle itself was not difficult. I had seen this concept before in other maps so I had no trouble figuring out what you were doing.

4/5 from me because of the "ninja" skill required to get through the first room.
