This single-player mod for Portal has been released! Download it now.

Overview

This Mod is about time travel (or chronoportation). While traveling in time, one can create different kinds of anachronysms, paradoxes, etc. It was implemented in CHRONOPORT a mathematical model which describes some of anachronism phenomenas caused by travel in time. The action happens in Portal-like settings in some very isolated place, so that the time-line variations would not influence much the rest of the world. In this Mod I would like to demonstrate the potential of the idea of time-travel for the first-person shooter/adventure/puzzle games. Travel in time should create the feeling of more dimensions and of existence of multiple variations for the same Universe.

EPISODE 1 - THE HYPOTHESIS

In this short episode the player will face a puzzle involving a weighted cube and buttons. This puzzle can be solved only by changing the time-line. As a fathefull researcher, the player's task will be to prove experimentally the existence of time-line variation and to establish the basic time-line variation rules.

EPISODE 2

TBA
