Please, make note this is NOT an easy map. It WILL require some deep thinking. If you consider yourself "bad" at Portal, this map is not for you.

    Great map. 10/10. There's one bug in the map that I found. If you fall into the pit under the fan in the fan room, the game crashes.

    Doesn't look portal/aperture science-y at all. Mostly because of the poor lighting. Half the time, it looks fullbright, needs to be far better lit with white/cool blue tones. Also, there's too much metal, and it looks too gritty. Thoroughly examine valve maps to get the best result, as you can see they make the best of their space, instead of just, in most cases, massive wide open areas, and only use metal in certain situations I.E. only when it is completely necessary. I personally think that is what makes a good portal map.

    Although I have only played a few portal maps, this map was certainly the most difficult of all. This map comprises elements distinctive from other custom made maps such as single portal challenges, custom camera effects, the rocket launchers and rebounding along with the extensive use of flinging with portals.

    As stated it really did require some logical thinking and overall was a challenging enigma especially in some parts of the later puzzles.

    I really enjoyed this map although it could do with more save points, especially when doing something repetitive, dangerous or difficult. Another problem was guidance so perhaps you could make the route more obvious with lights or something, although this is more of a future note than criticism.

    I'm giving this map "snakepit" a 9.8 /10 for the quality but lack of save points.

    Great Map. I am however stuck at the point in the game after you incinerate your companion cube. I can't get across the gap to the higher door no matter what I do or try. Any hints!!!!

    This map is hard, required alot of thinking and Quicksave/Quickload to beat. I like and hate the surprise ending at the same time. :s

    Great map but have to agree with the gy under me the part in the fan room crashed my game also. Fix that and I will give you 11/10 but for now 10/10.
