I'm not sure. Portal and Team Fortress both have really interesting back stories that I think have a bit to do with Valve acquisitions
Interesting. I've never played TF but Portal is one of my all-time favorites (I'm not much of a gamer lol). Will try to look into that when I have time because it's definitely interesting if true (and can be my token good example lol).
You might be interested in Portal on the N64 while you're at it.
I'd check out Narbacular Drop. Pretty sure that's the game that I'm talking about that became Portal, in a way, later.
There was a good YouTube video about it a while ago but I think it had a clickbait title that makes it hard to find.
I've followed that for a while :) Saw it on Hack a Day early in its development and thought it was one of the coolest ports I've ever seen. Sadly, I think he got D&D'd. Best I recall, I think it was unlicensed use of the N64 SDK or something like that.
