Cave Johnson here, founder and CEO of Aperture Science: the best damn applied sciences company on Earth. How good is the science here? Get a load of this: I'm dead! Now, you're probably asking yourself, "Cave, how is that possible? Are you some manner of Dracula? Or a Frankenstein? Or, depending on your cultural heritage, a Blackula or Latin Frankenstein?" [chuckles] Nope! Just science. As of this morning, I have been resurrected inside of a computer. That aside, situation normal. So. Continue testing

I seriously admire the advanced brushwork and detailing that this person had done... Curves and everything, it's beautiful. Something I have yet to master... I eventually want to make curved hallways lol.

holy fuck this map is amazing, it managed to have like 5 different beautiful environments and they're all very unique, i also love that you have like a full ass adventure just to finish the test at the start lmao (i also love how glados just doesnt explain shit, she just expects you to think that everything in the map is 100% normal and needs no explanation)

yeah the fact that after all that huge journey you just end up back at the start was really nicely done, and totally explains the title of the map which admittedly i didn't even think to look up until after playing :D As always dude, thank you for watching!

I'm pretty sure Valve just didn't change the player mass, so Chell's as heavy as Gordon is with his full HEV suit. Talk about some immense girth

Took me forever to figure out how to get the bloody portal gun because on my first playthrough I only had the one cube down with me! Even after respawning the wall panel only gave me one. Once I restarted the map, all was fixed. 😅

about the 1 cube thing, weirdly when i was trying to get screenshots and restarting the map a few time i somehow ended up with 2 cubes from that panel hidden in the wall, i don't know how and i couldn't make it happen a second time either. 10:23 the scaling the bit of fence? yeah that was totally not intended, we where meant to just use the cube as a step again i think.
