Portal Cubed
February, 2024
Project Overview
Portal Cubed is a short campaign mod created for Portal 2.
The mod consists of 2 chambers - INTRODUCTIONS & UNDERGROUND.
These chambers were created for my 'Experimental Games Design' module in university.
The project consisted of:
• Creating chambers focused on a specific mechanic
• Creating a design document on the chambers
• Hosting playtests to gain feedback and iterate on the designs
The mechanics these chambers are based around are cubes and lasers.
INTRODUCTIONS is a tutorial chamber, introducing the player to these mechanics and some relationships between the two.
UNDERGROUND is a puzzle chamber, implementing the mechanics taught in INTRODUCTIONS in a slightly more challenging puzzle.
Both chambers were created using Portal 2's Perpetual Testing Initiative, then modified and decorated using BEEMOD.
