This was such a fun playthrough to watch! Your cautious and steady thinking really captured all my own thoughts when I played this super elegant puzzle for the first time, it's so intricate and clever but has such a clear introduction to phases and goals as you discover them. Thanks for your kind words regarding the visuals as well, I had a ball with this one :)

Hey sorry for the very late reply and a huge thank you to both yourself and Teo for sharing your work with everybody, i love your hammer work, it looks amazing and really compliments the great puzzle too. Maps like this look more impressive than some of the AAA games today. Also love the easter eggs you hide in your maps, the fat little turret enjoying it's campfire was adorable :D Huge thanks again, and of course thank you for watching and commenting too, and i will have another go at "Springtime" soon, and do it properly this time :D

man portal 2 tests are awesome when done right

Agreed, there's some incredibly talented creators in the portal community :D Thank you for watching and sorry for the late reply

springtime (the puzzle that you cheesed with similar aesthetic) is a demon arisen puzzle originally. this was a really clever chamber. nice of you to solve it in under half an hour. That final move was crucial and really clever. I took nearly an hour to solve this. GG ngeruma

i still find it weird/embarrassing how i can really struggle with some simple things sometimes but do better with other maps like this, i think it really has a lot to do with really good map design, like this, the design tells you what it wants but doesn't tell you how to do it, where as with some maps it's just like here's stuff. i really should have another go at springtime, if i remember right the cheese i found was patched not long after. apologies as usual for the late reply and as always thank you for watching :)

Some people are just too talented to do stuff with only hammer goddamn..

It's such a unique aesthetic but looks amazing done so well like this, and yeah agreed very clever puzzle, it's one of those ones that make you feel clever when you finally figure it out. as always, thanks dude :D

Hot damn, that was excellent! Totes amazeballs, indeed on the hammer work and a devilishly kick ass puzzle to boot. Extremely satisfying all around. Very well played working your way through that one!

Very impressive hammer work, this style looks amazing done so well like this. apologies for the usual late reply and as always thank you for still watching!

That was a really cool puzzle, and I loved seeing how you work through it, I'm very similar and you saw how to finish the puzzle much sooner than I would have.

This is definitely one of those super satisfyingly clever puzzles, i find it very confusing sometimes how i can do "well" time wise with something like this but take forever on puzzles that could be considered "easier", i think it has a lot to do with really good map design, like it should guide the player and suggest possibilities but not actual answer anything. as always, thank you for watching

Oh my sweet science a map I haven’t played am I dreaming?

that's the thing that always amazes me, i can't comprehend how people come up with such clever puzzles, with enough time and practice i feel i could make something that looks great in hammer, but for the puzzle part i wouldn't even know where to begin! thank you for watching and sorry for the late reply
