I don’t know what can really be said about Aperture Science that doesn’t involve me swearing violently and breaking something of value, so I’ll say this: If you want to see a dedicated game player lose his nerve and cheat his way through most of the last puzzle through frustration, this is the video for you. Also, if you want to make a map and want an example of what not to do; this is the video for you.
Just watch it.
Of course it’s also excessively long, another 38 minute wonder. Hope you enjoy it.
About Us
“…” was my reaction to this map.
It does not look like a good map at all tbh.
well on the whole, I’d have to agree with you. technologically, the whole map was atrocious, if you ignore glados, some of the ambience is bearable. I actually think that one or two of the later chambers (NOT the turret one) might have been passable, but “stick a button on a box” gameplay is horrible. If I were to review this on MAL, I think I’d give it:
Tech: 2/5
Environment: 3/5
Puzzles: 3/5
or about a 2.5/5 total.

Anyhoo, you also missed the floor texture change in betweeen the level loads. I barely did any of the last parts ’cause of how annoying it was. Great review, And I’m glad you made the effort to produce it.
game looks more like black mesa .-.
Holy crap, I thought I was the only one who used the term ‘go home’ like that.
ugh, it just reset the video that took 30 minutes to buffer just because I posted a comment. ._.
I’m really sorry, I’ll try to get the site to reload comments in-line through AJAX to save that from happening. Thanks for watching and commenting.
Concerning the room where you were supposedly trapped and in which you needed a cube to break the glass… the wall to the right was made of individual squares and behind it was a cube; At least this is what I think from the half second glimpse of it I saw at the end when you were noclipping.
Really? Wow.
The worst ‘puzzle’ used twice.
Yeah, I noticed that too. There was some kind of black dot on one of the squares, so I guess it had to be done like that.
OR – It was not the whole wall made from squares, but only one square you pick up, break the door, the button have I/O only for that metal cube so you activate the super duper heavy mega button and than you can go there….
God, most of those challenges aren’t even origional. The wall made of blocks was done in the Portal Flash Version map-pack.
worst….map….ever…. my jaw dropped when I saw the turret room.
