A walkthrough of my second Portal 2 Perpetual Testing Initiative map.

This is called "The Warp Engine".

It started out as just an experiment but then I decided to turn it into something playable - at least I hope it's playable. It took several hours over the course of two days. The time span was mainly due to hitting brick walls with the limitations of the PeTI, a few ideas had to be thrown out and I reached the entity limit - but that's bugged anyway because all you have to do is rebuild it again and it's fine.

I've playtested it in it's completed form a few times and it seems to work okay, which is surprising because I've used some complex switch mechanisms which didn't always work out during development.

As for exploits, I've tried to nip any in the bud but there may be some I missed so I'd appreciate your feedback.

You may have noticed a join in the video near the start. This was a very silly attempt at climbing the stairs, I thought It would be quicker to jump onto the stairs but they were too high - I did this about five times before I gave up and went round them from the front more. Had to chop that bit out because it looked pretty pathetic.
