ASCIIpOrtal

Joe Larson has released ASCIIpOrtal, his ASCII demake of… Portal. I’ll be honest, I know that there are other demakes of Portal out there (at least two from our Demakes Competition), but I’m not very familiar with them. This one is well-made, however – seeing “through” the portals is a nifty visual effect and the puzzles are nice and challenging. The game comes with a level editor as an added bonus.

Just One More Game conducted an interview with Joe for the launch of the game.

Cymon’s ASCIIpOrtal looks like more than just a straight demake! The new feature is neat in 2d. (Source: Erin Robinson, via her Twitter)
