Very, very VERY awesome map! :thumbup:
Everything was well thought through and looked straight out of Valve's office!

Spoiler
The effect when you touch the anomaly reminded me of STALKER - Shadow of Chernobyl :lol:

The secret office was a nice touch and well hidden, although you could grab the cube with some timing when you jumped from the pipe at the ceiling. intended?

Incredible what one can pull off in just 2 weeks :notworthy:

For me, this has been the best submission so far. Amazing detailing that left me exploring every nook and cranny.

Spoiler
I really enjoy finding secrets!
Not much in the way of puzzle but based on the description I expected more exploratory than puzzle. The speed gel room was fun though!

One note -

Spoiler
Before moving into the speed gel room there is a stairwell. I ventured to the bottom of the stairwell and got stuck at the bottom. Not a big deal, I just no clipped back onto the staircase but thought iw as worth mentioning.

Woah. This is awesome. Very well done and I especially enjoyed

the new mechanic and the little easter egg.
This is probably my favorite map of the contest, even though it wasn't too puzzle heavy. Great job!

erm... Why am I credited? Did you use my poster anywhere? If so, couldn't ind it, even with noclipping.

It is on an office wall when you look through a window just before when you walk into the test.

Simply phenomenal. Excellent work.

That was amazing. Seriously good work...

I did get stuck, if you keep going right down the stairs instead of entering the main chamber, you can hop the railing and fall down there and be in there forever...

The design of the chamber itself though was SO brilliant.

Wow, that's one of the best maps I've played in ages!
Such crazy attention to detail; I *loved* exploring all those extra areas with no real importance to the actual puzzle, and just wandering around looking at stuff! Even with the fairly gigantic size, there's a nice sensibility to the spacing and lighting, and it runs pretty smoothly despite the hundreds of props & shadows.
Puzzle wise, it was prety easy, but with a nice mixture of disciplines. I especially appreciated the use of noportal volumes to prevent you portaling that end wall from the start and missing all the fun.
Oh, and the ending was pretty cool, loved the

and the way the exit is right in front of your face the whole time. I wonder if Chell will ever learn to climb small fences...
Honestly, the only con I can think of is that now we know you're capable of cranking out 26 of these per year.
Thanks! :)

I played it through like 5-6 times, so here's a least portals run and some unintended solutions.
