If you've played the flash version a lot of these rooms are very very familiar, and I can't imagine solving them as quickly without that foreknowledge.

Hen7, if you're going to update/improve this I think you have a fairly large beta team right here and this is the kind of thing that deserves a dedicated sticky thread. It really surpasses all other efforts to date by a long shot.

lol although i could "see" how to solve most of those "HHTHDIEUUHOWGWI" areas... i do see what you mean. those "bounce flings" (for lack of a better word) are pretty damn cool

i only played the first couple of levels of the flash version. most everything in this seemed pretty intuitive, even if not (necessarily) easily initiated.

someone asked "how long did it take you, a year?"

think about it. portal hasnt even been out for a year, let alone the flash version.

Yea, so that was me, and I wasn't thinking coherently at the time. So in all seriousness, you long did it take you to make? Like others I noticed some of the 'finer' details, (like lights in the floors) were missing, but it is HUGE and I think people can guess why you left them out.

And corn, I cannot believe you picked up on my moment of idiocy. Nice Job!

i think "most" of us relized you said "like a YEAR" just didn't say anything cuz. A) we didn't care, or B) we thought you were being sarcastic/joking

Code: Select all

/e does the "OMG SIX FUCKING PAGES?" dance.

Community spotlight on a released mod isn't quite the same as a thread dedicated to a beta test of a work in progress of a new version of a mod.

But you keep on being that smilin' ray of sunshine.

Its ood but i thought it will be EXACTLY copy of the flash version...ITs good but i think it will be better.

the funny thing is, i didnt like the flash version very much. but i absolutly LOVED this mappack, not to hard, not to easy, just right.

some fun moments:

[spoiler]in the part where the platform is hanging from the ceiling and it falls, the first time i played it i happened to be standing right under it as i shot a portal on it, and then it fell, pwning me instantly [/spoiler]

also on the part with the [spoiler]ride past the turrets with the companion cube i didnt even think of jumping to the platforms, at first i tried throwing my cube at the turrets only to notice that it just bounced off and fell in the slime [/spoiler]

and the [spoiler]borealis and the mech fight[/spoiler] parts were awesome
