In Greek mythology, Prometheus is a Titan, the son of Iapetus and Themis, and brother to Atlas, Epimetheus and Menoetius. He was a champion of mankind, known for his wily intelligence, who stole fire from Zeus and gave it to mortals. Zeus then punished him for his crime by having him bound to a rock while a great eagle ate his liver every day only to have it grow back to be eaten again the next day."The Rock of Prometheus" is a unique Co-op experience designed to tickle the frontal cortex and stimulate the user's imagination. None of the puzzle elements in "the Rock of Prometheus" are impossible or heavily reflex based. No lemons. We promise.

Here is a video of the map! (In V 1) Give suggestions as a comment!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=82s4MEALP1M ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ NOTE: I have not released any previous beta versions of this map (0.1, 0.2, 0.3, etc.) but I do have them. I do not plan on releasing them because that would be... well... pointless. Actual Description: When you come to start in my map, you must complete an easy Test Chamber. The Test Chamber is actually gravity/logic defying. (HINT: The Excursion Funnel does absolutly nothing!!) When the door opens you will be presented with a hallway leading to the playground. What this map contains: Excursion Funnels (Tractor Beams) Light Bridge Combine Ball Launcher (PUT THE .vpk FILE IN portal2/portal2/addons) Propulsion Gel Repulsion Gel Erasing Gel Literal Moon Room V 0.2 REAL WATER :0 (You can drown without a HEV Suit DUUUR) GLaDOS on the ceiling Many, many buttons Lots of cubes World Portals EASTER EGG!!! OMGWTFBBQ!!! Outside anomaly room V0.7 UPDATES ============================ -V1.6 Slightly moved the portal-able panel in the Outside Anomaly Room (Fell through ground) Cleaned up the entrance to the Outside Anomaly Room a little Added support to the scaffolding Added MUCH better lights! (I'm far too happy about that) Changed the hole holding GLaDOS' wires Moved the Light Bridge Removed the pool of water (Very unnecessary) Fixed the wall in the space room... Oops... Slightly lowered the wall in the Test Chamber Expanded the skybox Added outside scenery Added a secret "Portal 2" logo hidden out of Aperture Fixed the spasming wall textures by the Moon Room Made the outside walls taller Changed hallway textures to black The secret easter egg room (IF IT EXISTS!) is much better looking Fixed the splotchy lighting textures in the Test Chamber Bug fixes etc. -V1.5.2 (Small update) Added a starting room (Most likely will update soon) Small lighting updates -V1.5.1 (Small update) Little Bug fixes HUGE updates to the Outside Anomaly Room (Now at V 0.6!) -V1.5 Fixed more lighting issues Added Outside Anomaly Room V0.1 Added Scaffolding as an entrance to the Outside Anomaly Room Swapped the animation for the "GLaDOS Spasm Button" Spelled "spasm" correctly -.- -V1.4 Fixed some texture issues Edited some text Swapped gel buttons with toggle buttons (request) Gel dispenser lights up when activated Still waiting for the ability to have low-gravity props (Beta's fault) The Excursion Funnel in the test chamber still does nothing Deleted unused room (less lag) -V1.3 COOP COMPATIBLE!! Tried to make the Combine Ball Launcher look better when firing Added a camera to the Test Chamber and to the Playground Text now plays when you press the GLaDOS button Added a "hidden" Companion Cube Easter egg has some improvements (Added a magic button :0) New "Playground Locked" text when button is released Extra light in the Moon Room V 0.2 (Too dark) -V1.2 Moon room V 0.2! Added on-screen text -V1.1 Fixed the lighting problems in the test chamber Changed some problematic ceiling textures Added Moon Rover to the Moon Room -V1 Initial release ============================ Thanks for reading down this far. Please comment on the video, rate the map here, and give suggestions! Thx!

I'm fairly new to making maps, and this is one of my first. I'm sure it needs some work, so feedback is extremely welcome. Enjoy!

My first (and untitled) map. I dont have much of an artistic eye, so it's nothing stunning in the way of lighting, different textures, props, etc. Being my first map, I just focused on it being functional and here it is. The first large chamber is something of a free-form solution. I know of at least 3 different ways to solve it, so have fun with it and you may not need all available test elements. Also, in this room, the white ceiling panel is portalable, you just have to be at the proper angle for it. I shouldve added a portal placement helper on this surface but I didnt learn about them till after I uploaded this. Happy to hear feedback / exploits, etc. Thanks for taking the time to play it!

This is NOT a puzzle. (Update: I made a mistake on txt document. Don't type "map mp_coop_ctc" while in the coop hub, type "changelevel mp_coop_ctc" instead.) This is a Portal 2 themed Capture the Flag. If your are "strictly" a puzzle player, then don't download this map. If you like trying something different for a change then go head and download this. This is an experiment that I hope will be successful. Please give me feedback about this! I don't mind criticism, in fact I welcome it. However, I don't want to hear "this map sucks, this ideas sucks, etc." because it's not worth my time. If you have an issue with the map, be mature about it, be specific and tell me about it. There is a txt document that explains the rules and running the map so I'll just mention a few: Make sure your character is on their side of the map. Hide your cube, make turrets to defend your cube. Make sure your friend is finished hiding his cube. First one to throw their rival's cube in the Emancipation Grid wins. Stuff in the Map: Box Droppers to replace cubes when vaporized Button triggered Turret Maker Button triggered Turret Disposer (A Special Emancipation Grid) Notice about Buttons: Only operates with the correct character. The Robots can only activate stuff that is on their side of the map. Hate to repeat myself but really do look at the txt document Have Fun!

Bomb Launcher concept

Its a bomb launcher based off the one Wheatley uses but modified to be be compact and to be used in test chambers, maybe as a replacement for the rocket turret. Right now its just a concept, but if I ever get the chance I might try to model it. Changes will be made as time goes on. Watch the demo of it here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mqdoif7YCVM Other info: The prefab contains only the launcher and its relays, so you will need to add in things you want to add. For coop maps, though I haven't tested it yet; a target has been supplied so you will need to ungroup the prefab and change the lasers target to the the target, as the beam is glitchy in coop, so it will act like the rocket turrets.

FINAL VERSION OF OSTCSA! Changes: -added more decorations in the open area -changed the "malfunction" trigger in area 2 so it does more to show that you can't use those two cubes -added some explanatory text -added env_projectedtextures to enhance the mood -fixed cheat solutions -fixed the glass in area 3 so it will break more easily -made the turrets in the end of area 3 "super damage" so you can't just run past them anymore. This map has some "soft" acheivements (it displays game text rather than giving an actual acheivement) [] Ball Control: In area 1, get the sphere without losing one [] Turrets Syndrome : FIZZLE every single turret in OSTCSA. [] Shatterproof: Solve area 3 without breaking the glass [] The lizard lives: Find the hidden mapmaker's room (found somewhere after area 1)

Split Co_OP

This is my Second map that I have created and I figured I should post in the WIP forum before I post into the released forum. I would like comments on what I should change to make my map better. Play instructions: Unzip the map from the archive and place in your Steam/steamapps/common/portal 2/portal2/maps folder. Both players have to downloaded the map. Start a normal co-op game and whoever is hosting (the Blue Robot) type in "changelevel mp_coop_split" in the console (which is activated by the ` key under ESC. Updated some more textures and fixed an unintended way to solve the puzzle. Just figured out how to use moveable panels, and I added some. Added lots more movable panels. Added some sounds, fixed another unintended way to solve the puzzle, optimized it more, and changed more textures. *More looks changes. P.S. Please give input on what you like and dislike, so I can improve my map.
