what if you put a Portal in a portal?

[QUOTE=DJWulf]what if you put a Portal in a portal?[/QUOTE] The top of the portal collides with the inside of the other one. This, however, isn't smart enough to do that yet. Maybe this guy should work with the guy who's making the nemesis engine.

[QUOTE=Audio-Surfer]The top of the portal collides with the inside of the other one. This, however, isn't smart enough to do that yet. Maybe this guy should work with the guy who's making the nemesis engine.[/QUOTE] He already did it, on like page 3 or 4. The first portal goes in, chaos ensues, and both portals explode backward like a thermonuclear bomb (like if you took two super magnets and stuck them together the wrong way, then let go.)

Any news? I can't wait! :holy:

[QUOTE=Maddin1313]Any news? I can't wait! :holy:[/QUOTE] How's the first gameplay build going? Estimated release date?:derp:

Okay guys here we go, site is up: [url]http://www.portalized.org/[/url] Null and me will release news, screens, videos and what else as they become available. Please, take the time to register yourself on the forums, introduce yourself, ask us a few questions or just give us some feedback. We'll be waiting :).

I wish I had a better computer so I could run this. Also, is this going to become a puzzle game?

[QUOTE=Audio-Surfer]I wish I had a better computer so I could run this. Also, is this going to become a puzzle game?[/QUOTE] Yup, we'll use many interesting elements to create pretty much the next-gen (horribly abused word) puzzle game. We haven't done too much work on the game play side of things yet but of course we have an idea of the overall concept. We'll release media as it becomes available. Don't forget to register on the forums :D.

[QUOTE=Audio-Surfer]I wish I had a better computer so I could run this. Also, is this going to become a puzzle game?[/QUOTE] Actually, we're aiming for an FX5600 being able to "run" this. Reason I'm putting "run" in quotes is because you'd need a GeForce 7 series card or higher (which is actually extremely common now that the 8 and 9 series is out) to run the high-spec renderer with lighting through portals, SSAO, and so on.

As Null said, the game will kind of run on fairly old machines but the game would be a lot less exciting that way :). Consider that the game will still take some time till it's ready, remember we're only two persons. By the time the game is done (which will not be THAT late) we estimate that even your grandma's computer will pack enough in order to play Portalized at the high-spec renderer so you shouldn't worry. And if still haven't upgraded till then, well, you probably won't have a lot of fun with any other games of that time anyway. So to be more concrete: A computer that is currently able to fluently play Portalized at fairly good settings costs around 500USD. For really good settings you would need a 800USD machine, but that's about it. Once more: In about a year everybody will own a computer that packs more than enough to play Portalized without having to worry. So don't worry :P.

If you like, please feel free to register on the forums, give us feedback, introduce yourself, whatever you wish but please keep to the rules.

Hey, I'm new to the forums and stumbled right over this. This looks really promising and I am looking forward to the release.

This is AWESOME well done its so good

[QUOTE=snazzydragon]This is AWESOME well done its so good[/QUOTE] :v:? It's barely "done" :raise:

Are you still working on this?

Need that tech demo download link!! Can someone re-upload it at Filefront or something? :(

[QUOTE=luishi5000]Are you still working on this?[/QUOTE] Yeah, considering we just posted about [url]www.portalized.org[/url] ;) [QUOTE=Mikk]Need that tech demo download link!! Can someone re-upload it at Filefront or something? :([/QUOTE] No.

I signed up on your forums. :)

Please make it so lower-end computers can somehow run this. :(

Samuel, we said that people who are active on the forums and who seem competent to us will be asked by US if they want to be testers. People begging for tester positions is quite the opposite of what we want. Besides, currently Null is re-doing the engine so there is not that much to see just yet. So you could say its the perfect opportunity to register on our forums and get familiar with everyone. Maybe we'll ask you if you want to be a tester ;) Agoat, it would help immensely if you people who want "their old computers to be able to run the game" actually posted what kind of specs your "old computers" actually had. Also we need old hardware testers, especially ATI. Read above about how to become a tester. Head right to [url]http://www.portalized.org/forum[/url] and register and post some useful ideas, as well as your computer's specs (in your signature).

[QUOTE=Audio-Surfer][media]http://www.portalized.org/images/portalized-logo.swf[/media] Is that a teapot on tracks?[/QUOTE] Yup, I call it a tea-pot-tank or just tea-tank. It's a fearsome creation of some mad scientist. What does it do though? I comes from nowhere, goes through a portal and vanishes. Such a strange creation.

[QUOTE=Svenstaro]Yup, I call it a tea-pot-tank or just tea-tank. It's a fearsome creation of some mad scientist. What does it do though? I comes from nowhere, goes through a portal and vanishes. Such a strange creation.[/QUOTE] That needs to be in the game.

[QUOTE=Audio-Surfer]That needs to be in the game.[/QUOTE] Haha, maybe as a secret room easter-egg, a teapot robot with two mini-portals on the floor :v:

Holy shit, this looks awesome! [b]Edit[/b] Will this be free? Were you can just download it?

I still haven't been able to play :/ I hope you release another build soon :D

Seriously guys, please read the info page on: [url]http://www.portalized.org/index.php?id=info[/url] It DOES answer these questions.

Can I get the portalized logo in .gif form? I'm not sure but I think most programs that make flash can export gifs.

[QUOTE=Audio-Surfer]Can I get the portalized logo in .gif form? I'm not sure but I think most programs that make flash can export gifs.[/QUOTE] You can't. Gifs won't look decent with 24bit colors even if they are hundreds of MBs in size. If really want the logo in another format I can send you the .flv. What would you use it for though?

I just wanted a .gif of the teatank moving.
