Today's game is Portal 1. I didn't really have time to start the Hospital in Silent Hill 2's New Game+, but i wanted to play something. So i downloaded Portal 1 and played through a few of the challenge maps for the Gold Medals. I've been meaning to get the achievements out of the way at some point anyways. I got Gold in 5/6 of the Portal Count categories, but stopped at the last one. This screenshot comes from my 2 portal run of one of the chambers. It was difficult because i had to bounce the pellets of the cube at just the right angle to get it into the receiver.

This one i took right before a failed run where i had to portal peek. Luckily i saved right before dying, but it was harder than i thought, especially because i got turned around.

There was also the Test Chamber with the turrets. It was hard and i had to save scum it. I ended up using cubes to shove them over and the running back into cover before they could get me. I also built this fun staircase of Cubes to get over a wall. I ended the run with two portals just to get through a mesh fence.

Puzzle game hall of famer, this.

My sister made me a crocheted friendship cube. It always sits next to my wifi router.

Portal was one of the First game franchises i got really attached to. It and its sequel well deserves that spot in the Hall of Fame

Why is this the picture you chose? This is a long repressed memory

I had to live through it again, so everyone else does too

About that blood. Valve forgot to remove it before submitting the game for age ratings, and despite multiple updates over the years, they've never bothered to address this. Also, I wish Portal 2 had hard-mode remix chambers like 1 did.

[–] MyNameIsAtticus@lemmy.world 1 points 8 months ago

The blood is interesting, i guess they thought not too fix what isn't broken. Also, yeah, i'd kill for a hard mode remix of Portal 2. Definitely make the repeat playthroughs more interesting

That picture specifically reawakened my PTSD.

Finally one I recognize. Is the 2-portal run all glitchless, in-bounds only, or anything goes?

[–] MyNameIsAtticus@lemmy.world 1 points 8 months ago

All glitch-less. i sadly don't have the patience to try and pull of any fancy glitches. The most complicated i got with it was Portal Peeking
