[WIP] [WIP] P2_Trickery [Fully working!]

#1 · October 2, 2011, 3:27 pm

This is a not-so-big map I made, it started out as a test to see what I could do in Portal 2 Authoring Tools (It's also my first map I ever made in Valve Hammer),
it took me quite some time though and I've been a bit messy :p but I think it came out pretty well.
I guess you could call it a WIP since I've been adding a lot of stuff to it.

I know graphical glitches occur when more than 4 (world)portals are viewable, but I can't really
fix that.
I also know I don't have indicator lights, but those are a pain to place, believe me.

Thanks for playing!

Nice map for a beginner. Did notice a few little bits, such as

Spoiler

no door at the entrance.

and a few little bits shown in the video.

It was not so much as trickery. More like disorientation, and easy to think past.

Spoiler

Try sticking them in a fake room, instead of the same one at the first jump through the world portals, but different enough to make it unsolvable. Make the player figure it out, though.

Try to put some indicator lights up in a new version. I know it is annoying to place, but the map will look a lot nicer.

Again though, nice map.

I am sure i did not do the right solution.

EDIT:Wait, is the name based on the map, or your name? I just noticed :<

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:
