Description
Backtracking is the aim of the game here. To complete this Test Chamber, you will need to go between left and right in order to place cubes in their respective intended places.

Note- I have tried to iron out as many exploits as I can and add enough quality of life implementations to make this Test Chamber as enjoyable as possible.
There are some slightly irksome puzzle elements, such as trying to get the cube to land onto the moving platform in the first room, and the navigation might be a turn off for some people.
Whilst the outcome is not exactly as I originally envisioned, I think this will be a satisfying experience nonetheless.

If there are any suggestions for improvements, or any exploits that you find, please write a comment.
Have fun :)

Update- 2 seperate exploits have been fixed where it was possible to take reflection cubes beyond their intended points. I have also repositioned the tractor beam in the 'second section' so that it is no longer possible to trap yourself.

Ahh, thank you for showing me that. I shall try and revoke that as soon as I can.
I am glad that you enjoyed it though.

Hi there! Very good multi-room puzzle! I had fun trying to understand the uses of the first buttons! I did find a big exploit: my solution found in my second run.

Thank you for the feedback. I appreciate it. :)

Boy, the first part of that map is tricky but good! I really enjoy the logic on this one, you need to think carefully about the order in which to use the cubes. I did not find the "air-conveying process" to be frustrating, it took me several tries but at least that was amusing to do!

I also appreciate the fact that the two other parts of the chamber aren't as brain-melting as the first. It's the best way to finish a map with easier (but still very good) puzzles.

I did not use the blue funnel in the second part, though? You can reach the middle platform by using your portals, I believe this was not the intended way to solve it!

Thank you for this test chamber! I'll sure be checking your other maps! :)
