Brilliant! The video the guy has done is brilliant. He's well pleased with himself

That is amazing, he has really developed that beyond what I would expect. It is frying my brain a bit when you can see through the portals...but I'm sure I could get used to it. GJ Joe!

"Come on, COME ON! Tell me that wasn't cool! That's what Portals are about!"

That guy is hilarious, he sounds like he has inch-thick Harry Potter glasses and a desk strewn with Mountain Dew cans and D&D rulebooks but that is a goddamn badass game. The way you can see through portals especially is impressive.

Exactly what I was thinking.

Seeing through ASCII portals is a bit mind boggling for me, but I'm sure I'll get used to it, because I already love this game. It looks amazing!

As long as his voice isn't going to be the ingame music, I'm content.

This is the first time I've seen this, and it's quite possibly the craziest shizzle i've ever seen.

Looking through portals then rotating the room to make it the right way up when you fling through is badass. Doing it in a 2D ASCII game is epic.

Mind = 'blown';
