Any suggestions on how to clear that last room??

you have to use both teleports as part of the solution.

@anon: There are 3 things that can "pass through" the portal blocks. The little man, the path blocks, and ...? If you need more of a hint, let me know.

Kiel B, What is the third item that can pass through the portal?

Anonymous said...

@chunk:

... the laser itself.


Very nice game btw!!

Great game!

Very nice and creative !

Lol love the "please don't do that" when you try to put the portals together

@chunk - Like someone else mentioned, the laser itself can travel through the portals. You can position the two portals in a way that it redirected the laser and the path blocks can reach the exit.

..."please don't do that"? Boring! OK, what would be the logical
result by the game mechanics when a portal stone is pushed through
the other portal? It would have to come out of itself...
my head hurts...wait, this could be a great puzzle:

*** *
< ^
*x* *
*d* *

You push ^ into <. Now the momentary location of ^ is <. As I
said, ^ comes out of itself downwards, i.e. at x, and we could push it
further in direction d, to whatever sinister means.

This was another nice one, about the right level of difficulty for me, and not too long. I liked the last level, and I also got the "please don't do that" message when I was casting about for things to try.

This was a fun game and I was able to complete it myself without looking up a walkthrough.
