Author Topic: [Just an Idea] Blockland Portal  (Read 2344 times)

So okay, for some random reason this time in Blockland, and I really was thinking of making a Portal remake, not really following the story line / chambers. But more of a Challenge just including Portals / Cubes and of course Buttons to complete levels. If you've been to servers like Mold's Challenge then you know what I mean. Just not possible without a gun.

Each level would get harder and harder I.E here are some examples of what could be done.


Level 1. Place cube on button to open door (from portal 1 chamber 1)

Level 2. Place portal on the higher platform and one underneath you to get up there

Level 3. Use portals to retrieve both Cubes and place them on both buttons

Level 4. Use portals to cross a pit of Acid

Level 5. Use momentum to get across a pit of Acid

Level 6. Use Cubes to block bullets, and use portals to destroy to move across acid

level 7.  Open a door to get a cube by pressing a button, then use portals to get to the other side to retrieve the cube.

Level 8. Dodge rockets by bodily dodging or redirecting them with portals, and get up on the high platform

Level 9. ??????

Level 10. ????????

level 11. ????????

Level 12. ???????

level 13. ?????????
Level 14. ??????????????//
Level15. ???????????????????????????????????????????


ETC. ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????

If atleast 10 people support this, then I'll upload the Portal add - ons, and I'll gather some people to help build :D

Thanks

Suggestions would be nice too..

P.S. And yes, I'll use Glados sounds for finishing levels and stuff.

PP.S. You'll be playing as P - Body / Atlas, Playing as Chell would look weird.

PPP.S. I own Portal 1 and 2, so I know what Portal is like.

PPPP.S. I would want someone to loop the Portal 1 song and have it play 24/7 :D

Why was this moved to General Discussion? This is a server.

Ostinyo already got something like this into a pretty complete state IIRC. I'm not sure how active he is but you could try pming his forum account Wesley Willaims

Okay, that'd be cool.

He's well enough active currently in-game and on steam, I talk to him often. He actually passed that project of his down to me, gave me the proper add-ons for it etc...but I never had the time to mess with it. I had a lot of plans to spiff it up a little, and I even started making an actual scale model of the Portal2 Coop Tutorial, never finished that either. Maybe some day we'll work on it again.

Well Racer, I might still be helping out with it so long as you host. Me and Core are working on an updated portal gun which centers to brick faces.
Cookiez, I can't give out the save unless nobody else is planning on using it. Ignore my PM.

Very.

Okay, so I'll probably ditch this idea.

Feel free to make your own.

I think I'll try something else, if I don't see a Portal game out by possibly this fall, then I'll work on one.

Leaving topic open for discussion.

When the portal gun first came out there were tons of these servers and remaking portal has been attempted many times (including by myself for the first 4 chambers)

I think it's a bad idea, to be honest.  It's so unoriginal and overdone, everyones already tried it, theres no point in doing it again.

To be honest, the portal gun mod isnt' even that good, it's very hacky feeling and the proportions of Portal are totally different to the proportions of the huge portal in Blockland's version.  Everything has to be scaled up and it just isn't as nice.

While that is true Jirue, it is still fun to solve complex puzzles in Blockland, and if we finish our remake of the portal gun it should make everything run a lot more smoothly. I also like how Portal 3 makes only white walls portalable, making it extremely easy to make challenging levels. We had planned to expand to areas outside of Aperture, but never got around to developing the final chapters. Heck, I even made a plot and song for the mod. Good times ;)

I was working on one a while ago but after reinstalling blockland, i accidentally didn't save my builds.  :panda:
