[WIP] [WIP] 12 Angry Tests

Page 1 of 3Next

UPDATE!
Last map released! Make sure to try it out and give me feedback! :)
The pack is mostly finished, just the visuals on the last map and some minor tweaks left.

(The first 2 maps are from my contest entry Don't Eat the Paint(10th place))

I challenged myself to make 1 map with 2 tests for each test element (Laser, Gel, Light Bridge, Funnel) and then 2 maps with 2 tests each with a combination of test elements. And also to use every different theme and no custom content. For most of the maps there is also a BTS part.

These five maps are mostly finished but I expect I have to change them after you guys give me feedback(And make sure that you do!)
The last map is still too unfinished for testing but it will have the theme from the DLC maps and have a boss battle.

I want to know EVERYTHING that can be improved, is or looks bad, and where you get stuck and EVERYTHING!

"I hear voices. But I ignore them and I just carry on killing."

nice map, good job

Really good map pack, worth playing.
Only some forgettable problems which are below as requested. :)

Feedback

Spoiler
Laser map - first part:
the first mini-puzzle is a bit too simple, it gave me a bad first impression(and incorrect low expectations for the remaining puzzles).

Laser map - second part:
it's not possible to shoot portals through the hole in the glass. Anyone who played the main game will expect to be able to shoot portals through glass holes and lasers can go through glass anyway, so why confuse players?

Paint map:
misaligned shield

Bridge map:
turrets with hats are too cute to kill :(

Funnel map - first part:
- for a first-time player it's hard to see that jumping from the left panel results in death
- you can skip part of the puzzle using this ultra-lame method

Funnel map - second part:
although it doesn't make the map unplayable, it looks a little cheap that new cubes keep bouncing off the platform.

Tunnel+paint mix map:
the blue paint limit can get a little annoying when you need to wait for it to reach the funnel origin.

Thanks for the good feedback!
Ok, so I should make the first puzzle a little bit more impressive.
Is there any other puzzle that doesnt meet the quality of the rest?

Once again I think the whole map pack is of great quality except for the flaws mentioned in my previous post. Although it's only a tiny fraction of the map pack I think the first 'puzzle' would make more sense as part of a room that requires the player to do more steps, for example.

Great idea! :D

very, very very nice mappack, you earned cake, cookies and a lovely turret plushie!

Two things caught me: room 3 had some non-clipped things.

Spoiler
if you walk up with the hlb (REALLY REALLY AWESOME) the things that stand there can be walked through

After the surprise in room 5 I had very, very bad lag ;)

I made a video I will upload it but currently uploading another movie, and my internet is really really bad today, but you will get to see the map :D

5/5 :D

Federal regulations require me to warn you, that theese next maps ... will knock you on your butt.
Thats right! The maps are completely awesome!
5/5 Really great job, i liked every single thing (and mostly the turret with hat and the elevator that broke when i was inside). But i missed only one thing: GLaDOS dialogues (or dialogues of boss you are talking about)
EDIT: I forgot! I think its a glitch. When entering the modern chamber in old Aperture style elevator, before the old iron doors open, animation of new-styled elevator opening plays, and only then the old doors open.

Hope that helps :)

I liked the underground style elevator exiting in the modern Aperture :D

Great job on this map, i loved every single bit. All i ask for is more BTS maps. I love BTS maps, but there are so few of them due to mot much puzzle aspect.
