D2 Level 1 Portal 2 Version (IMG Heavy)
« on: May 16, 2012, 08:38:31 AM »
I know we have some Portal junkies in here, so I thought those people would find this interesting.  :)

Recently I was challenged by NUMBERZero to make Descent 2 Level 1 in Portal 2.

I thought "If the early descent levels were made with cubes, then I can make it in Portal 2!" so I took the challenge.

For the most part, I have all the level designed, but probably since I tried to make it in 1:1 scale, I cannot fit the whole level. (The Portal 2 Level editor has a size restriction.)

Really all that's left is to make it a puzzle.

I might have it released sometime today, or tommorow, because there's not much left to do.

Here are some screenshots to tie you over for now (May not be Final):










Hopefully you can recognize stuff a little, I'm not the best map maker out there, but I think it's close enough. :P

I would've normally put all those in a spoiler, but I don't believe we have those here.. Oh well.

No. It's all work I did on my own, constructed entirely from memory.

Might be done tommorow. Was testing the test earlier and all was well until near the end, I died randomly. I have to figure out why. Lol (Seemed like an engine issue, I pulled a turret through a portal and it dissapeared, and shortly after I died.)

But the good news is, that it's turning out to be a generally challenging puzzle. You'll need to keep all of your cubes throughout the whole puzzle. If you lose any.. Well. Too bad, start over. :P

A truly good designer would make sure you couldn't loose any of those cubes for good.

Darcshadow?  Mr Fancy Floof?  You know him right.

When I changed my name during the hackers thing it was with a good reason, and I just decided I liked it better than Alter-Fox.  But I only changed it once.  In-game, that's a completely separate topic.  But the Fearrets are great.

A truly good player wold make sure you wouldn't loose any of those cubes for good. :3

But if I really must, I'll add dispensers or something. It might be a good idea so people don't get angry at me.

Aw man, the one time I have to forgo visiting PD for a few days so to focus on homework, THIS pops up.  ::)

Looks great, can't wait to play it.  8)

For that matter, can't wait to try the editor for myself yet (another thing I've had to put off because of homework).

If this works out, we'll have to see if there are any other Descent levels we can recreate(ish) in Portal 2. Personally, I'd love to see D1, level 1, in Portal 2 next. :D
