WARNING: Do not download this map if you don't want to suffer. Watching companion cubes go is very difficult, I know.

GLaDOS this time will make you suffer, she won't let you touch a companion Cube, or can you be fast enough to pick up one?

Difficulty: Easy.

That's my first map, leave a comment! Thanks.

First maps never stand out, this one seems ahead of the curve with understanding structure: there's before and after, not just a gigaroom. As for the rest, the same problems with lightning (too flat & bright) as any other first map: try having an observation room as lamp. It's weird how all testing elements are concentrated in one spot: laser, button, funnel, cube all in one spot with nothing else around. Good luck with your future projects.

Water do not kill. You can walk quietly in it!

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:

Nice map and concept. New twist on cube retrieval map.
Liquid in back room could just as well be solid as the toxicity level is set low or not.
Thanks for mapping.
