Nice Series.

Hey I did a blind playthrough with commentary of this chamber on youtube! I would love a recommendation of other chambers of you to play on youtube :)

thanks. I wasn't able to get an actual cake model into the game. I sure wanted to do that, although.... the cake IS a lie. here as well.

Disappointed to go through 9 parts of the Cake Chronicles and there is no cake. But I enjoyed most of the segnents. Maybe they seem too easy because they are short. If they were grouped together in 2 or 3 parts instead of 9 they would seem more of a challenge. I don't blame the author for not wanting to mess with them and move on instead.

Excellent! Ha.... the cake is a lie.... should have known... sorta surmised! Thanks!

Good job on the series, I liked it all the way through. Thumbs up from me....

Liked it! Thumbs up!

the cake is a missing texture

THE CAKE IS A

the cake is lie...

just be sure not to trap ppl and you should be fine. (nothing worse than an easy puzzle that u can get trapped on @.@)

If the tester isn't going to interact with the cake (yum!) a 2D version (like in your chambrr pic) might be enough. But, you're right in that new chambers would be better use of your time...

I'm trying to model a cake and have it placed at the end where you fall through the ground (there spawns a Companion Cube now, but the timing is off) but my 3D modeling skills are baaaad, haha. I've kinda decided to leave this series the way they are and I'm going to work on a new series.

Final? Still no cake, heh! (at least give us an easter egg?)

Oops, I thought chapter 5 was the end. I'm guessing a lot of people did since I think I noticed the number of people to play the final chapter is a lot lower. I could tell before I read your comments that this seemed more an exercise in using Hammer than making a tough map. Pretty good for just learning it. As for master puzzlemakers, Mevious is probably one of the best. I essentially ripped one of his to make Remorseless . But it's hard to learn from him in principle because each of his maps displays some new and twisted thinking.

I used primarily BEEmod, but I'm learning Hammer. As I mentioned here before; they aren't mean to be hard. think of it as the very beginning of the game. I never intended to get them to the frontpage and receive so much attention, but I like it, don't get me wrong! anyway, I'm planning on making a more difficult series. although I'm no master puzzlemaker, so that's a huge obstacle for me to overcome.

anyway! thanks so much for playing and I'm sorry if I dissapointed you by making them (too) easy

7/10 for the whole series.

That's it? It doesn't get any harder than that? I was really hoping that it would go out with more of a bang, I mean, I liked how u almost killed me with that crap water when the level was over, but then saved me with those platforms, but i just wish there was more. I guess that's why it's called "The Cake Chronicles" as in peice of cake, cause they're so easy. :p
P.S. Did u do this partially in Hammer, or did u just use beemod2?

hey Deathwish808. thanks for playing and recording. I understand why you think it's strange that these maps are on the frontpage. I didn't create them to be. but a reason could be that people are tired of the super difficult stuff that regularly is on the frontpage. I created these for a few friends who weren't very advanced with playing Portal, that's why the first maps are SUPEREASY. but I don't apologize for that.

I do apologize for all the talking. I will switch it to quiet modes. I didn't realize well enough that people could find it annoying. also, I do know what Portal Bumping is, I just don't care. thanks again!

Played through all of these with commentary as well as some others from the front page.

Good fun map,Enjoyed, Thank you.

very fun

you should've known that the cake is a lie... thanks for playing!

I really liked this set of chambers. A lot of nifty little puzzles--very fun!

...but I was kind of expecting cake.

thanks you very much for all your comments on every map, quaternary!

Excellent series and thanks for sharing!

hey, I updated the map. see change notes!

great! I'll get back to this test and change it. thanks again ;)

Pretty much yeah. I like the first idea, not the second. Keeps things as simple (don't confuse complexity with difficulty).

thanks. I have read that before, but I will again. so, if I would delete the flip panel and the faith plate leading to it, it would be good? OR, I move the left wall (on entering the map) 3 blocks left, so you can't jump down to the first platform. would that work as well?

your comments are greatly appreciated!

Read thoroughly.

The map itself minus the thing I mentioned is a good little puzzle. You just need to work on your technique.

that is correct, it's a mind game. you don't NEED them, it will only make the puzzle longer.
