Post Mortem Episode two is up! You can check it out here. Additionally, you can read the full changelog for the latest version of this map here.

The series

Post Mortem is (might be) a series of maps in which I explore some of my favorite test elements, gameplay mechanics and visuals from the Portal series.

The map

In this map I'll focus on my favorite mobility gel: Conversion Gel, combined with momentum, a function of mass and velocity that is conserved between portals. All this in an open Enrichment Sphere in some of the test shafts underground. The sphere was built in 1982 shortly before Cave Johnson's death.

Thanks for playing!

You can play some of my other maps below.

I (also) blame Gaben for all this

Also, you really should make the series a collection, even if it's just a 2-parter. Some people could see this as only a single map.

Considering that, it wasn't bad. The rooms themselves were very well designed, and I don't think I exactly hated doing the conversion gel puzzle. It's as good as a pure conversion gel puzzle can get (honestly I don't know much else of what you can do with a pure conversion gel puzzle). It was actually a puzzle too, I don't think there was much a puzzle involved on the spray white goo everywhere section of portal 2.

(I'll also be lying if I said I didn't enjoy that final section and the final moments of the first section)

Anyway, big thumbs up! Amazing hammer work, I like the new aperture transition and the vibe of the series!

Hey, I give you props... the intro text actually works on my 21:9 monitor.

Let me say... I hate conversion gel. I think it's one of the most boring elements of the whole game. I had my fill on the portal 2 campaign, and this seems a reharsh of that chamber where you spray your white goo everywhere. It's something super fun, if you only do it once. But I haven't touched this element in a while, so I didn't exactly mind it here. I think you do that on the portal 2 coop too (ugh). I'll say that I have way more tolerance for conversion gel on hammer maps. If I see a "spray your white goo around!" peti map I instantly leave.

Nice! I really like good conversion gel levels and this one is a great example of one.

It doesn't feel too original though. It takes more than a little bit from the original Portal 2 campaign -not only the environments and voice lines but even the puzzle progression seems like an alternate, slightly different version of sp_a3_portal_intro. It's a bit too similar. Anyway, I'm giving it a thumbs up.
