Nihilus

Yet another puzzle focused on Schrödinger's cubes, somehow even easier than the previous ones. It's a very small map, but one that I hope is fun to play. The name is a reference to a (somewhat) old videogame I've played recently. Due to other repairs taking priority, most test chambers have been left in a state of disarray, littered with debris and fallen-off metal tiles, with minimal lighting and barely enough power to keep vital functions running. In spite of the somewhat alarming state of things, the Aperture facility feels oddly peaceful and calmer than ever.

Very strongly inspired by sp_a1_laser_intro from Portal: Revolution.

Music: No Cake For You from Portal.

Unintended:

• Any sorts of glitches, speedrunning tricks, cube throwing, etc.

• Tight timing and/or tricky cube placements.
