the funny thing is, i didnt like the flash version very much. but i absolutly LOVED this mappack, not to hard, not to easy, just right.

some fun moments:

in the part where the platform is hanging from the ceiling and it falls, the first time i played it i happened to be standing right under it as i shot a portal on it, and then it fell, pwning me instantly Rolling Eyes

also on the part with the ride past the turrets with the companion cube i didnt even think of jumping to the platforms, at first i tried throwing my cube at the turrets only to notice that it just bounced off and fell in the slime Wink

and the borealis and the mech fight parts were awesome

Just finished. Everything was pretty awesome.

The only thing I didn't really like was the cake room. My instinct was to jump into one of the alcoves behind a turret and then see if I can find a way out. So I did, and I did see the way out, but then jumping back onto the platform was pretty much impossible with 4 turrets shooting at me. So I reloaded and tried the other alcove, and then the other side of the room, but none of those worked.

In the end I discovered how I should just stay on the platform, shoot a portal through the fan, and then drop through the floor. It's fairly counterintuitive (for me anyway) to just have to stay in the middle of the shooting range of 5 of those turrets, so that doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me. There could be other surfaces to portal through, or perhaps a way to disable all the turrets. Or just have less turrets, or a few rocket turrets that you can dance around of.

Also, disabling the portal gun is fairly lame, and I don't know why you did it. Not being able to shoot through the fans until the platform is down isn't that much of a handicap, and while the platform is moving you can't put a portal on it anyway.

As for the WCC in the level where you have to use it as cover from the turrets on the unstationary scaffold, I can't believe there were actually people who tried to throw the cube onto the turrets. It's your pal the companion cube, trying to throw it away is just shameful. Sad
