The Great Escape (Part I)

Description
*WARNING: This is an advanced chamber. Newbies be afraid... be very afraid*

This chamber was to be featured in Timex, however, that mod has since died. Nevertheless, I reworked this test into the first of 7 chambers that contain a hidden riddle. The goal is simple. Find the predetermined sets of numbers in all 7 chambers, then decode them. You do NOT have to use noclip to find the numbers. Each number is on the testing track. A clue to decipher the numbers will be included in a later chamber.

A couple of notes. First, make sure you get up close and personal with each number for each number will reveal a color clue. Secondly, if you find a way up to the roof, don't. The roof is electrified and you won't last 2 seconds. Lastly, don't try to cheat and throw the cube onto the button. The button will throw the cube back at you or better yet, into the toxic water.

Each chamber is independent and you don't have to play them in order, nonetheless, I will release each test in order about 2 or 3 weeks apart from one another.

After the 7th chamber, you can proceed to the final room (No puzzles to solve) and enter the code if you think you solved the riddle. If you don't care about the riddle, then thanks for playing and I hope you enjoyed the chambers.

Please rate and comment as I always want to know what you think.

Fun fact: If you played one of my previous chambers, “Quick and Easy” the second room may look somewhat familiar, however, the solution is not as obvious.

This map is beaten in a very cheesy way without understanding that the cube would slide the way it does had it been with orange gel (for me), otherwise many parts are interesting and the idea of using two rooms and two cubes to progress slowly is a nice touch.

I finally got to playing these! I've had them in my queue for a long time, so I was pretty excited. This one was pretty fun, I hope the others are as well :)

Thank you so much. I'm very GLaD that you enjoyed it.

It's good to see you again.

Finally got around to this one, and it was great. Took me two separate days of playing to solve it. Beautiful construction, and a mental workout, too. Well done!

@froggy: There is a solution video up above if you really stuck.

@The Official Czex: In all of the times I tested this chamber, I never had a cube get stuck that way or a freeze. I'm GLaD you liked it though. Thanks for testing.

All that being said, the puzzle is good.

Also, the movement seems kind of steppy? I don't really know how to describe it; I haven't had this issue with other community maps. I've had this map freeze, too.

The portals that face each other vertically that are used to launch the cube.

With the portal placement helpers, I can be looking at the portalable surface at the bottom of the fall tower, and the portal will go up to the one near the entrance, instead.
