fun!! didnt use the blue franken cube

Yep blue franken cubes will not bounce themselves ^^ I consider that as a glitch, but this is sometimes useful ;) Some puzzles in the workshop have been made around that and are really fun to play :p

Yep, I learned something new about light bridges, too. As always, you have produced another one of the most unique puzzles I've seen.

I noticed that you can get stuck behind the light bridge that releases the franken cube. You have to be pretty dumb, but it is possible.

I was also going to point out that there's no way to fix it if you accidentally gel your frankencube, but it appears that it doesn't matter. A gelled frankencube doesn't appear to bounce off walls, grating, or buttons. That's something else I didn't know before.

Thanks all for playing ;) Glad you learnt something ^^ Most of my maps are based on some kind of unique / new idea :p

I like the elevator effect.
Couldn't finish it, but watched the video and learned something new about light-bridges so thanks for the lesson.

Great map. Scratched my head a while till I finally said WTH give it a try. I didn't know that about light bridges before. Delighted with the elevator. Rode it up again for the fun of it.

Sure ^^ The "scientific" aspec of the light bridge also fits with that ;)

with reguard to the light bridge:
it might be deliberate. based on science:
it is a LIGHT bridge, a photonic device.
it does not have all the same properties as a solid object:
look at a rainbow &
mixing different colour paints, to make a new colour.
also, shine white light on grass & it reflects back as green.
light / photons are always moving.
like water, if you add something, say food colouring,
it does not just colour the surface ( 1 side ) of the water.

Well I don't really like the final timing needed to exit, but that's the easiest way I found to make it not so hard ^^" Because without the blinking bridge, reaching the exit is such a pain in the ass X)
And about the fact that light bridge are painted on both sides, I don't think this is a glitch, maybe only a lazy coded feature : too complicated to make it so that one side is painted and not the other probably ^^"

good map
bit wierd. (wierd is not a bad thing.)
nice elavator.
I thought the same as baadrix at first.
but not seeing another way.
& knowing you know glitches.
tried solution, & was amazed that it worked.
went up to exit a few times till it did work, though.
they say, timing is everything.

This is one of the tricks of this chambers... Just paint them, nevermind from what side ^^

I know how to get to exit, but how can I cover the two light bridges with the bounding gel as one of the two always blocks the way to the other one ?

Well... Will keep that in mind for my "Find the Glitch 2" map :p

Well... if you look at portal bumping, that's a really serious glitch, and it's been around since the original Portal. I was surprised when I found out that it hadn't been removed from Portal 2. So if Valve won't fix that, then they probably won't fix a relatively minor one like this.

@jamie.sunderland : Well I noticed that, but I already consider that the fact that blue franken cubes are not bouncing themselves is a glitch that will probably be fixed someday... So I could make puzzles on them echanism you said (which is probably really interesting :p), but fear that they will no longer work after an update ^^"

When you jump on a blue Franken Cube, it makes you bounce. It pretty much becomes your own protable "jump pad". That could be a decent test element :)

No water for the bouncy cube bacause you can respawn it ;)

Pros:
• Map is generally entertaining;
• Novel elaboration on engine mechanics;

Cons:
• Picking the wrong time to jump at the end;
• No water to cleanse a bouncy cube;

Yep, I know that ^^ Franken cubes are not affected by gels ;) I used this bug in my map Find the Glitch :p

I liked the elevator. Did you know that Franken Cubes don't bounce? After I entered the exit, I turned back around and went back in. I coated the cube with bounce gel and tried flinging it around. Nothing. Just an interesting thing I found out :)

Map updated ^^ And I also tested one of your maps ;)

O_o I was sure that the bridge generator blocked portals X) Will correct that...

the very top, just over the last lightbridge on the left, the lights block portaling, the bridge doenst

Hem, where did you portal to go to the pedestal button? There is no available surfaces to do that...

there is no need to use the first elevator.. u can just portal up to the switch ^^ came here with #f4f, if u like, please test one of my maps

Updated to fix the quick way kimir used to reach the exit ^^

nice one.. well and truly monkey proofed..

Map updated ;)

PS: +1 one to the King of Bouncy castle. lol

Very cool.. Now you can make your exit flying monkey-proof - then I will have to behave myself once again. ;)

Ooooh I see... I never thought that someone will try to multi-jump from here XD
I'm not sure if I should close the glass here... You can go down the blinking light bridges by croutching, but you may think you are stuck if you don't have the idea to croutch ^^"

One in 20 jump I suppose.. I was lucky and got it on 3rd attempt i guess.. I had no idea paint stuck to light bridges btw.. i clearly have much to learn.

Hem... That was not the idea X) I tried to avoit that but maybe failed... Where did you jump from?
The expected way out is by placing blue gel on the vertical light bridges ;)

Great map - original use of light bridges. Not sure if I got out the right way though.. I had to get a really well judged jump in from an angle and hope my head didn't hit the last bridge.
