[SP] Red Carpet at the Aperture Science Awards

Page 1 of 2Next

Glamour. Fashion. Science.

Stroll through the long-since abandoned entrance to the Aperture Science Auditorium. Many a great scientist and Test Subject have walked down this red carpet. Though they are now long gone, the paparazzi remain for some reason...

Hope you have fun with it.

Certainly well worth playing! Nice job with making a puzzle like that.

There's some pretty cool aesthetics in here. It's a nice change of scenery but the puzzles were all broken and it seems as if there was no beta testing involved before releasing this map. There's also an autosave that lets you continue dying over and over if you made the first jump without using the blue goo. I really think you should go back and fix up the puzzles and maybe add some more depth to the first room. The feel is awesome and it's got a lot of potential.

The visuals are STUNNING. The puzzles don't deliver as well for me, with a lot of walking, and some rather overt clues to key portal placements. My framerates got cut down considerably by the number of chairs in that last room, but overall, I must say this is some impressive work.

Thank you for all the feedback thus far, folks. I'm sorry you got stuck with the autosave repeatedly dropping you. I thought I had fixed that particular issue. I wonder if fixing it would disqualify the entry into the contest. I do think I will take the feedback given so far and make some future updates to the map.

Thanks again for taking the time to play it, let alone posting your experiences.

Features two big enviroments which look interesting in the stills, but do not translate as well in the game: you end up with a variation of a playground, with blocky structures, and another mostly empty (yet ironic) locale.

Too bad, sometimes you can lose a completely legitimate bet.

the hills are alive... with the sound of music

Well just played it, and I think it was really good. Not perfect, but definatly you have some style. It was more like a story than a chamber.

I think you have created a very unique map. I really liked

The first room is a bit big, I took my time running around exploring.

Very atmospheric. There wasn't much for puzzles, but the setting made what was there quite enjoyable.

I'm playing custom maps and record my first time of playing them. So the run is not perfect and may not use only intended ways, but maybe it can let you see how other people may understand the map or you could just enjoy someone playing this map for entertainment.
Anyways, here is the recording:
