==Description==

This is a very large mod that I started a while ago after playing through the Half-Life Series and Portal. It takes place parallel to and after the original story of Portal. It extends a different perspective and shows a whole lot more about Aperture Science Laboratories.

== The Story: ==

You start out as a the manager of the Technology Development Team for the combine resistance. You are working at your office at the base when you receive a notice that Aperture Science Laboratories, one of your partners, has cut off communication. You are assigned to command a team to investigate the matter. You discover there has been an explosion at the facility very recently. The power to the facility has been shut off and the emergency backup systems have not yet been cleared for activation. You call in to the base and they instruct you to navigate the facility, if deemed safe, turn on the emergency power and activate the backup systems. After you turn the power on and activate the backup system, on your way out of the facility, you and your team are ambushed and captured. Like in the original Portal you wake up in a stasis chamber but you must escape the cell since the emergency protocol of the backup system is in effect and the facility is in lock-down. As you roam the facility you come across a new technology and acquire the ability to switch between this reality and an alternate one to aid you in finding all of your teammates and getting back to the base, ALIVE!

I was working on the game solo but as I began to expand upon it, it got to be too much work for just myself. I have a couple of people who just recently joined my team but so far there is very little done on it. I hope to get some done on it soon. My current goal is to have chapter one done by the end of the year.


''':December 6th, 2009:'''

My team hasn't been able to stay together due to other obligations for each of us, but I still may be able to finish the first chapter. I have no idea when anything else is going to happen though. I've also decided to include mini-games for both practice on my part and enjoyment on the player's part.


''':December 27th, 2009:'''

I'm glad to welcome Matt Willis to my development team. It looks like I will not finish chapter one on time but no worries, I will continue to work on it.


''':April 20th, 2010:'''

Great News! Since Portal 2 has officially been announced, I'm putting the project on hold in anticipation for the EP3 Engine. Keep your fingers crossed. If the Engine is all that it's rumored to be, then expect to have another step up in the experience.


''':July 18th, 2010:'''

Valvesoftware has officially announced that they have pushed back the release date. This now puts us in a position where we will continue to work on the game and then port it to the new engine when it's released.
