Yes, I wasn't aware of mikeastros puzzle when I made the original version of this.

renamed?

Great map and I also agree with Mattchew's spoiler

Updated, thanks for bringing that too my attention! I also fixed the lighting, I don't know what I was thinking, but many of my puzzles from last year are too dark.

Nice map, I agree with Mattchew about the move in his spoiler. I did the first half in a bit of a simpler way than bullfrog's last video; to get the cube up to the laser area for the first time, you can just ride the faith plate while holding the cube and you actually get caught by the funnel. And then if you've done that while keeping one of your portals at the funnel source, you can just set the cube in that area and immediately go back to the faith plate and continue with the solution. Anyway, the rest of the logic was very nice; not too hard, but I needed some thought for each move. Thumbs up!

I solved it quick, but was really fun! Constant back and forth between laser and funnel was mmmm, nice. The grate move also gave me a laugh. Very gut ^^

@Hovering Harry ya that original version is rough. Way too much grating and jailbars -- obscuring the solution. Even though this has a similar solution, it has a better flow and the moves are communicated better.

Much easier than the original. I struggled with the last move though, it totally looks like you lose progress

@₴ⱧɆɆ₱ĐØ₲ thanks for the kind words. I went back and looked at some of my playtest videos for the original 'funnel+laser puzzle done' back in July 2022 and I think I see what you mean, although I probably didn't realise they were exploits at the time :)

@bullfrog thanks for the favorite and the video, all intended! I'm really happy I had you playtest because the unintended solutions you found were so much better than what I originally had intended. The sequence from 2:30 to 3:30 replaced a timing move i wanted. I had to update the map again because of the sneaky solution HXP233 found. Also just realized...

@jandlml Thanks for playing! Sorry that I missed your comment.

I’ve just come back to this and I couldn’t see what you changed since the last version I played. Also; I don’t know why I didn’t add that version to my favourites either. Brilliant puzzle, genius, another and added to favourites intended solution. :)

so she could see a butter fly

why?

why did the girl throw butter out the window?

@HXP233 Thanks for the video, I fixed that exploit.

@hfmanson Thanks for playing!

Awesome level!

my solution https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V3eVMc6Vf6c

really good map! i think i got the first part unintendedly . but i tried so many things i may have skipped something i needed to do. i ended up checking the walkthrough. got the final sequence myself.

That's the intended solution. Thanks for playing bullfrog and sloi.

I think I see what you mean intended solution ?

Nice one :)

Updated, I also half-removed the angled laser through portal. I cannot fully remove it, but I can offer an alternative move.

Thanks, the second solution is completely intended. There is always a tiny move I did not see that leads to skipping an entire sequence!

Hmm, having now reread the description and notice that there "is one angled-laser-through-portal" required, then perhaps this is actually your intended solution ?

Good update to a great puzzle, definite intended solution ?

ah thanks, I'll get to fixing that.

Cool map, I like it. But "angled-laser-through-portal" is not necessary!
Playthrough follows.
