I only sense 2 maps:

Quote from silic on April 8, 2012, 10:07 am

there is 2 levels built into in tmv_002, and 1 in the starter level

but the starter level is basically 2 puzzles smashed into 1 due to the complexity of doing certain parts of it.

Oh well; I remember playing map 1 a long time ago.
map 1 puzzle one:
Great job!

map 1 puzzle two:
[spoiler]It's quite a big walk from part 1 to 2 and it really took me a while to figure out that I had to take the cube from part 1 to part 2!

bug: I somehow managed to shoot a portal through the glass once. After that I was able to solve it. I had no idea how to solve it otherwise.

Personally I don't like this pretty hard air control with blue gel but I'm sure there are people who love it.[/spoiler]

Map 2 puzzle 1:
You have observed my worst nightmares and made them come true!
[spoiler]I hate this kind of maps. After the first sudden death you know what to do still it takes a hell of a lot attempts to do it. When you first step in to the room and "follow the flow" you just die. I had to noclip due to frustration level over 9000![/spoiler]

Map 2 puzzle 2:
Very nice but rather straightforward puzzle. Good use of laser and laser cubes.

All in all the frustration of the air control things lead me to the 4/5 conclusion:
Great!

level 1
[spoiler]use the gel to bounce the cube into the glass to smash it :p like i said in the OP the maps are more of a tester ground for certain things ive been looking at (e.g animations and the puzzle you mentioned here)[/spoiler]

level 2
[spoiler]Go with the flow dude! :p side step while looking down, was also a tester into what people could withstand in that could they funnel swap? apparently not in your case :p[/spoiler]

level 3
[spoiler]used a concept i looked at a while ago in another map, but i went for a sacrifice puzzle instead to increase dificulty.. This map was my nightmare, due to how many fail safes i had to put in to stop the player getting trapped everywhere![/spoiler]

cheers for feedback. (and these are by far my worst creations in my view :p)

I enjoyed them. Good job. I died a few times in the funnel flow until I saw what I needed to do. The funnel speed may be a bit to fast though. Thanks for creating.

The blue gel jumps in the first chamber were the most difficult, as I had to do them several times to figure out the right sequence to get 3dots area solved. [spoiler]Realized late that I needed to paint area 1dot in chamber 1 for later when I needed the laser; had to backtrack a lot[/spoiler].
Chamber 2 and 3 were comparatively much easier with a little thought.
Very nice and varied map set. All worked and I didn't get trapped anywhere. Thanks for creating.

Great pack, enjoyed it a lot. One thing i kinda didn't like was the way to reach the 1-dot in the first map's blue gel area, except if i did it wrong. Is some strafe jumping necessary there? Cause i did it that way. It's not that i had a hard time with it, just don't feel well with the idea that it's something necessary. I prefer to think of it as an advanced technique, not a requirement to solve puzzles.

Except this small thing, i loved it. Cakes for you.

Nice maps!

[spoiler]The fizzler puzzle with all the buttons turning off one fizzler at a time was a bit dull, though. When I first saw it, I expected one of those mind-twisters that Chander has created with his fizzler puzzles. Instead I just had to press the buttons in the correct order and carry the cube. After that, it took me forever to realize I'd need the laser cube, too.[/spoiler]

All in all, this was still good fun, 4/5 for me.
