Why is this PORTAL 2! map in the PORTAL 1! section?
It would be nice if an admin moved this ^-^

Feedback on the map itself: on it's way

Your map is quite hard to pull of, not my favorite type of map, but still pretty well done!
The graphical design of your map isn't really nice though. It's mostly one texture, and fullbright lighting. Don't worry, my first three maps had the same problems .

Also; the panels are very thick, 4 px is a nice depth for them.
They could also use some support so it looks more natural.

The playing with the portal gun was also something rather unique and very interesting, good job on that one!

All in all a 3/5 for now*: good, but needs work!
* I don't rank this just yet because I'd love to see some more work on this map so it's worth a 4/5 or even a 5/5 =)

Like strafe jumping? or TF conc maps? This map requires some serious strafe jumping skills to complete. The puzzles mimic the format of the conc maps of the original Team Fortress game. Rather than struggling to figure out the puzzle you will spend most of your time trying to properly execute the jump. There are 4 puzzles total. The first 2 jumps are probably the hardest, so don't get discouraged. Feel free to noclip past it if you are having trouble. Give me some feedback if you like, love, or hate it!

Thanks Ipfreaky90 for the quick feedback! haha I am well aware of the fullbright and the lack of textures. Working with textures is tough for me. NOTHING looks good when I do it, but I'm still working at it.

I kinda want to find out if this form of puzzle interested anyone. Its not going to be everyone's favorite for sure, but I think more like this could be cool.

I had allot of fun with the puzzle that plays with your gun, but I feel like it has more potential.

Ill be fixing most/all of it sometime in the near future.

reuploaded to Portal2!

I approve of the mapname, crapmap is crap.

Strafejumping can be fun, but it isn't in a map which is boring like this. It's also annoying that you don't set my direction correctly after pulling me back up

I like the idea of making a strafejump map, but really, it could barely be more ugly.

Not my cup of tea. The first strafe was impossible for me - my God you have to strafe right, shoot a portal and shoot another one all in one motion. Just not possible no matter how many tries.
The Gun disappearing - I do not get it ? And those tiny 1-inch diameter Targets on the wall right after my Gun vanished - I don't get that either. None of those colored Targets did anything.

Sorry - just was not fun in my opinion. Maybe a specialty only for masters of strafe and trigger jumping.
