[WIP]Aperture Science!
Quote from dvlstx on July 14, 2008, 11:17 amThis project is still very much alive! I know that I haven't exactly been posting much at all, but trust me. This is moving along nicely.
Oh, and the website is up!An alternate testing sequence, begining with your regaining of consciousness, and continuing on with the testing... for a while.
----
Backstory: After regaining consciousness inside of an elevator, GLaDOS explains you passed out during the testing, and she sent someone to revive you. You continue on with your forced, labrat-esque testing, until an explosion rocks the facility.
Wait until release for the ending.----
Overview: The majority of my map pack, (at the time of my writing this, there are seven maps, one testchamber each,) is going to be test chambers. However, once things are literally shaken up, you'll find yourself behind the sterile, maintained walls of the test area. I've worked long and hard on this, albeit very much on and off work, and take pride in my quality and detail. While this may not be the hardest map pack, I never intended it to be extremely difficult. (This began as a map for mahalis' GMOD Portalgun mod, and I halted work on that and started where I left off in the real Portal.) I simply intend for it to be very good quality, and to tell a story as it goes along.----
Game Plan: ***As priorities are completed, they will be updated, and removed.***
New GLaDOS Sounds!
Old GLaDOS Sounds...
Priority one: Continue working on yet-uncompleted, (however planned out,) levels.
Priority two: Keep this damn thread alive...----
Screenshots***The SECOND TO LAST ONE is of a level STILL UNDER DEVELOPMENT***: Screenshots are not in level-order.
----
Praise and Other Nonesense!)Rated a 10/10 for visuals and gameplay by one of my beta testers
)Contains new mechanics, and my OCD-perfectionist detail work
)Entirely custom GLaDOS voices, no more "This test is impossible" crap
)It's got a story!
)It has companion cube in the biggest level of the pack (I had to split it in two!)
)Puzzles that are geared towards the casual gamer, but become progressively difficult
)Jesus would want you to download this (when it's released of course)
)So would Mary----
My Notes-Back to work, detailing current levels and beta testing them w/my invaluable testers! Expect new media very shortly...
-Always check the newest posts for more detailed news. Don't expect them to be posted here!!
