It's now unlocked on Steam! Go go go! (I'm also suddenly remembering forum accounts all over the place. Wahey!)

I've always had the impression that you really can't have any kind of ego to work at Valve - what they're doing is teamwork of the highest order. So if anyone's expecting me to be building maps entirely on my own, or something along those lines - you'll be disappointed. It's a fantastic...

I'd come up with some devastating retort, but to tell you the truth - Samon's summarised it perfectly. Oh, if only things were different. Alas...

ModMatic - digging out single-player maps and mods for Half-Life 2 (and others) so you don't have to. Enjoy!

Joseph Toscano - he has a website. And a guestbook. Be sure to congratulate him! I test it on 'hard' - basically if it's still fun the millionth time I have to play the damned thing, I'm probably going in the right direction. Puzzles are, admittedly, a slightly weak point to test -...

Anyone else found this? Trust me!

Officially launched!

Together with HDR-ified versions of the first two maps. Hope that's okay... ;-)

It is indeed GlaDOS. And I didn't get that from the FGD - I got it from playing the whole of Portal. ;-)

Celebrity playtesters are guaranteed to pick holes in everything. So I'm going back, improving it all - and making sure that Mr. Laidlaw doesn't run the wrong way down corridors in future...

The in-game version looks almost identical - except it's animated. And also looks fantastic. ;-)
