I'm bumping this because this was probably the best bounds map I've ever played, and I think everyone should play it. Find 2 friends and load it up. Don't read the pages of the thread if you don't want to be spoiled. Enjoy -HP |

Anyway, for the time being, it seems like theres a couple bugs with the third path, so save frequently in these rooms so you have a fallback point. Sorry! Okay, this is an important update so I'll clarify as much as I can here.
I have updated the first post with a newer version of the map. This has removed the bug that prevents you from re-entering certain rooms on the "third path" if certain conditions are met. (Hilariously enough, the condition is not beating the rooms in a reasonable amount of attempts. The specific rooms are the Overlord / Balloon room and the two after it.)
This does not mean that older versions are unbeatable, so don't feel obligated to restart from the beginning if you are playing v1.1 or v1.2. Just be sure to save your game whenever you enter a new room and you should be able to avoid this rare bug, should it come up. Ideally when you first see the room with the Overlord.
Sorry about that guys, but we can only test for so many hours before we're sure we can get whatever we can. The newest version (v1.3) does not have this bug so you'll have nothing to worry about.
Now go back to ripping your hair out and enjoying it.

You need to update room 3 because, as shown on our stream, no three humans can beat that.

This is how we did it: + Show Spoiler +You all stand adjacent to the 2nd crystal in a vertical line. At the exact moment the ling touches the start wall(to head for the end) you all run to the 4th crystal staying in your line of course. Then when the ling gets to the far wall(for the 2nd time) you all run back to the 2nd crystal. Keeping this pattern up keeps you in time with the ling just enough to win the level.

Yea I'm just joking, we were doing it so poorly haha. And yea, we streamed us playing it for like 4 hours yesterday.

I was playing on LAN which of course makes it much easier. Shouting down the corridor "GO"..... "GO"
How far did you get out of interest?

anyone have hints to the second clock room?! and has anyone made it past the kakaru? -.-

We've executed the kakarus perfectly and we still can't get past the second set <_<
Second clock room has a red herring in it.
Also, for the Zergling back and forth one, it's really easy if you anticipate motions and set waypoints just in front of where the ling stops. We did it after just a few tries.
EDIT: Anyone know how to do the charged battery/volatile explosive room? We were dicking around and somehow heard a buzzing noise and then an observer exploded. I'm sure you want the observer to explode on the explosives, but we have no clue how we got the buzzing noise :[

we talking about the clockroom that says 12:00? and has 88 on the floor? lol
red herring? -.-

Aww Chill, I wish Khaos and I had been able to catch you play it. The most enjoyable part of mapping this sort of thing is watching users struggle through it. Any idea if/when you'll be streaming again?
Edited to remove hints becuase Khaos is all butthurt

Yep looks like we're all stuck in the same places
+ Show Spoiler +Personally, we're stuck on clock room v2.0, particle accelerator (we were in the accelerator room and once we came back we're not able to go forward again; tried following the particle in so many times we had it perfect), and exploding kakarus (wtf, we're dancing on the empty squares perfectly, that HAS to be it, what else could it be)

Clock room 2.0 has nothing to do with the clock. There's a secret square to stand on, you just have to find it :D

stuck on accelerator, and volatile explosive room
edit: beat both rooms
accelerator room + Show Spoiler +use the particle from the previous room
volatile explosion room + Show Spoiler +

lol come on man, that was TOO nice of a hint =P

got the mirrored tower room, working on the vibrating crystal/multi-frequency cannon room
also have no clue what the burma-shave hints mean
edit: we have the vibrating crystal unlocked but there's a barrier on the side of the multi frequency cannon
there's a hint 2 rooms back
+ Show Spoiler +to help your drive, or to make a splendid drink, simply look in "threes"
and we have absolutely no clue what to do
