Intro Zone

Description
Intro Zone is a small introduction to a structure I want to formalize. On principle, I won't exactly describe it here, since I am gauging exactly how "intuitive" its presentation is, but players in-the-know will likely quickly recognize it as regions of player triggers under a few extra design constraints. Some similar formalization has probably been constructed before somewhere, but at most I've only seen gravity-changing affects and such, which I am not interested in here.

Estimated Difficulty: Order of Magnitude 2-3 with experience (Though adjusting to the setup may take some time)

Important Note: The Life Preserver signage (black and white striped ring) indicates an escape path; it is never necessary to use one of these routes in the solution.



It's worth emphasizing that this is not a one-off "proof of concept;" I have a few more puzzles of much higher difficulty that use Zones, which can be found in this collection. Again, the other puzzles are noticeably harder than this one; they are intended to be played by players who already have some experience with tougher workshop puzzles and were not made with a difficulty curve in mind! In any case, I thought it would be important to finalize how I want this structure to be presented first. I also wanted to have some fun trying to design a tutorial!

Let me know if you encounter any issues.

Very good job on introducing the mechanic, especially the last room. The design is also cool. I had Tenet vibes while playing)
