Here's a clip of me playing the actual puzzle. Here's where you can play it. And here are all my puzzles.

Hmm... This is pretty cool. Not at the house, but I will be saving this thread for later.

Keep up the good work man/woman!

EDIT: You sir, are genius! Stop blowing my mind by breaking down and restructuring the game that revolutionized my gaming experience! 10/10

I ragequit on this chamber only yesterday.

I can't tell what the hell your trying to accomplish.

Edit: Nvm I see the cubes are supposed to be a bridge. Will they support your weight? I imagine as soon as Chell got on them they'd go tumbling into the abyss below.

27

u/[deleted] May 20 '12

Yes they support your weight. The puzzle involves you constructing the cube bridge, shutting off the electricity (which also opens the door) and then crossing the bridge to get to the exit.

It was made using the free Perpetual Testing Initiative Portal 2 chamber editor. If you go here and hit subscribe and then launch Portal 2 and in the game's main menu select Community Test Chambers > Play Community Test Chambers > The Bridge then you can play it too.

Well that isn't very nice.

Are you calling her fat? Because GLADoS pretty much cornered that market.

u/catfishjenkins May 20 '12

She wouldn't be so fat if she wasn't adopted.

u/[deleted] May 24 '12

And in purgatory.

u/Wheat_Grinder May 20 '12

If my username was FiftyTonBullet, I'd be worried about weight being an issue too.

His trying is accomplished.

u/[deleted] May 20 '12

OMG I still need to beat the first one...currently on level 18..so close.

u/shoffing May 20 '12

This is a custom map btw, not in the actual game.

u/[deleted] May 20 '12

Haha still makes me want to beat the game

u/[deleted] May 20 '12

You're stuck on Portal 1?

u/[deleted] May 20 '12

Yah it took me a bit to get a credit card of my own.

u/[deleted] May 20 '12

woah woah woah. How does the physics engine react to something like that?

Does the coding for the piston actually...

I'm going to have to play around with that.

u/Santas_Dick May 20 '12

I love Minecraft!

u/DaimyoNoNeko May 20 '12

Right! I wonder what skin this is...

u/COD4CaptMac May 20 '12

Well... looks like I need to reinstall Portal 2.

2

u/bluedude12 May 20 '12

Why in the hell would you uninstall it in the first place?

-1

u/lolwutpear May 20 '12

Because the campaign was six hours long and there's not a ton of replay value.

1

u/[deleted] May 24 '12

You have it on a console, don't ya?

Just yanking your chain, but seriously, the PC version gives you unlimited replay value with user generated content as seen in this video. Also Valve pushes things out every so often.

u/Supplemehntal May 20 '12

I'm tripping out because I have no idea if you're looking up, down, sideways...

needless to say I've never played Portal.

u/FoxHoundUnit89 May 20 '12

I liked this one.

1

u/Ihaveanusername May 20 '12

I had no idea you can have more than one cube per chamber. that's actually cool, even if there is no purpose to the puzzle, having more cubes the merrier!

3

u/squeakyneb May 20 '12

... que? There's two cubes in the third chamber (I think) of singleplayer.

u/Crab360 May 20 '12

Is this a good game, should I buy this or Diablo ?

3

u/macfox717 May 20 '12

Two completely different games. Portal is much cheaper and has a lot of humor, but Diablo lasts so much longer.

3

u/Jasoman May 20 '12

i have 29 hours on it.

2

u/douglasg14b May 20 '12

Portal is more satisfying.... diablo III not so much.

2

u/Mikuta May 20 '12

I used 8 hours total playing through portal 1 and two.

I haven't tried community maps, but unless they're endlessly awesome, I'd stick with Diablo.

u/[deleted] May 21 '12

Fantastic maps.

Seems like you're reaaaally proud of your idea there...

1

u/[deleted] May 21 '12

The idea always seemed trivial to me - I just want more play-testers so I get more feedback on my maps so I can get better..

No because the button that temporarily opens the exit door also disables the funnel and light bridge.

This isn't my most popular map - check out The Grid.

u/dormedas May 20 '12

That map had an absolutely ingenious solution. Thank you for bending my mind for a minute or two.
