Portal 2 Sticky Paint/Gel Test

[sirinterweb]

spider chel spider chell

[Jam35Var1ety]

DID YOU KNOW:

Aperture once sold this as a dieter's aid. It was a slightly toxic pudding. It was, however, removed from the shelves because it would, due to it's sticky nature, stick to the dieters stomach lining and cause clotting.

[sdennis98]

ah! so disoriented!

[Skilledman4]

no wonder this was removed for disorienting,

[skmojoed]

The cube should really stick to the walls, since it's coated in the Gel.

[Gerftern600]

Is this a custom map?

[bleachVSinuyasha]

the looks so epic i hate the pussy testers that could not handle the epicness

[ninjaheartt]

Okay I can see why it was removed. Im getting sick just watching this short part.

[TheRantingCabbie]

So here's a good question. Are the physics for how this gel works included in the SDK or did someone develop it so you can add it to the SDK.

[omnicoder]

@TheRantingCabbie I had to code the physics myself.

[sharpnova2]

@omnicoder how did you do that? just direct gravity towards the gel when you're touching it or something?

[omnicoder]

@TheRantingCabbie I had to code the physics myself.

[TheFancy009]

@omnicoder excuse me,but i may be of asictance.look,i dont know ANYTHING about the source engine,but that dosent mean that im usless.ok,imagine this,this stiky gel stuff gets on a cube,right?havin trouble makin it stick to the wall?no problem!you see,insted of makin it try to stick by throwing it,make it so that when it goes through a portal (ex:portals on floor and wall) when it goes through the one on the floor,it goes through the one on the wall without falling down,insted going strait :)

[IAmThaMastar312]

This was actually supposed to be in the game... Attraction gel I think it was called.

[TheExtremeElite]

Ehm... Tutorial?

[haloplayer576]

Mind fuck gel.

[nintendofan9797]

@shellderegg but we all know valve can't count to 3...

[shellderegg]

I truly beleive this has a good possibility of appearing in Portal 3.

[coolpiman]

Portal would have been so fucking longer if they added this into the classic times

[UpaOpainc]

they should have put this in the portal 2 playground

[ubuntupokemoninc]

Do you still have the code for the adheson gel?

[JoeqMafia22]

If you've ever played Tag, which is a free game, it has all of the gels.

[iceboy1671]

so disorientated O.o

[mszegedy]

nice slideshow

[Kornhead01231]

i can tell why they got rid of this, making puzzles and implications of this are nigh...

[johncena123687]

They were supposed to have it in the game but the game testers had motion sickness

( like me ) so they had to remove it

[oblivionclan5]

that is actually a kickass idea

[Dannydabawse]

pffft, screw gravity

[VideosWacky]

@Dannydabawse Asdf movie reference? I like train gel.

[PortalMan64]

Which way is up?!

[joshuaerridge]

@omnicoder

Is there a code in developpers console for this gel?

[Pilottyengi]

I would've liked to have seen what Cave Johnson tests would be cooked up for this.

[Legoguy9875]

That would've been an awesome gel to have in-game, can you tell me if there is a download link anywhere, I'd love to try it :D

[123halofreak]

OH FUCK.

My mind D:

[DathCoco]

pls do community maps :D ^^

[339justdoit]

@TheAssasindylae Reeeeeeeeaaaaaalllll

[IrishLebaneseBeast]

I... I feel like I'm going to vomit o_O

I am so glad they didn't include this xD

[xAidenMalakx]

@IrishLebaneseBeast That's why they cut it. Apparently it had the same effect on playtesters.

[IrishLebaneseBeast]

@xAidenMalakx so I've heard! haha

[Rapider10]

WHERE IS UP!!!!

[ZoroarkSKA]

Pfft. Screw Gravity!

[NightAsasinFUA11]

I love how compared to the other gells, this would actually fit the gameplay of portal...



[TheAssasindylae]

Faaaaaaaakeeeeee

[nexuszx911]

@TheAssasindylae it was actually supposed to be in the game. He modded it to show what it would be like.

[11kyzak11]

why did valve not use this?

[aylon18]

@11kyzak11 because makes some weak people dizzy and full of nausea

[GeoJJx]

I can think of all the testing possibilities and it is insane.

[virginiarules510]

I can tell how the test players got disoriented with this.

[RobotUnicornMadness]

I liked thi video just so I could come back quickly whenever I wanted and read the top comment. Roflmao

[thenewnoob123]

Congratulations, you've broken the laws of physics.

[xKopGx]

you ppl comfuse me

[punchoutdelay]

valve got rid of it couse of ppl getting nautious (sorry if its spelled wrong)

[gorgolyt]

This was in the original game that Valve got the paint idea from.

It literally made be feel sick.

[BLANKNOTING]

@phazonicpokeblade New!! *"Glupulsion Gel"-Yellow or Purple (Gravity)

[phazonicpokeblade]

If it is created Portal 3 should have that in it. Think of all the testing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[YourAverageJoey]

Comments are full of pansies who never played Prey.

[FireatWill35]

na na na na, na na na na, spiderman Spiderman!

[Zatorak360]

How'd you get this to happen?

[Catdemondarkness]

This is.. I can't... Sense of Direction... is just... [/implodes]

[simonthesuperhawk]

well this is awsome but im glad(os) it isn't in the game because it makes me dizzy

[error628]

how can we make the portals glow right before it opens?

[dinosaurzez]

omnicoder you are awesome

[BLANKNOTING]

[Jadyn1112]

SPIDERMAN GEL

[Capshot18]

Could you jump on this? And would you fall to the ground, or back to the gel?

[nypulley999]

@SamhainTheDark it made too many ppl blow chow all over their keyboards.

[SamhainTheDark]

Why did they exclude this gel?

[SuperSmashDolls]

Super Portal Galaxy?

[MrD1M1M1]

Man, this gel would be a ton of help on some levels!

[kminsel]

Thank you for this!

[jackaltyson01]

In the words of the announcer: "If the laws of physics no longer apply in the future, God help you."

Physics no longer apply. God help you.

[Redhawk453]

where and how did you find this?

[tehmooseshow1]

I was like come on walk on a wall or sumthin but then I noticed you are on a wall lol

[THECREATOR49Steam]

God that's trippy

[rufforator100]

what?? weres my rick roll

[TheVeryEvilToaster]

Y U NO IN GAME

[makindsmanahome]

I remember in the guide somewhere it said that this would be another gel but they didn't have any time to complete the chambers or something like that.

[Tnickyf]

Now..... How does physics work again????

[PastryPredator]

Tripping Balls 101

---

1. Watch this video

2. You are now tripping balls.

[Alagremm]

@PastryPredator That is exactly the reason why it was removed from the game

[flowersofdoom3]

How did i get here from minecraft?

[purerhodium]

This is really cool and all but, as this video shows, playing any level with this gel for any more than 30 seconds will cause you to rapidly evacuate your stomach contents and coat your mouse, keyboard and screen with a greenish-brown chunky gel, if you know what I mean.

[thefuzz1542]

This was going to be forth gel. But to many play testers got confused while using it so they took it out. Shame I would have loved playing with it.

[19KaPow91]

@thefuzz1542 i don't think it was because it was to easy not hard

[CallumRoyCarmicheal]

can i have an download link or tut where 2 find the jell and how 2 make an map

[theangel666100]

they nick named it sick gel because it wasent to good

get it sick gel and stick gel

[GalliadII]

up is down...

[Mujaki]

You have have heard how Portal 1 was adapted from a Digipen Institute student project, "Narbacular Drop" ?

The gels in Portal 2 are from another student project, "TAG: The Power of Paint." That game had three paint colors you could use to influence the environment. Green paint would let you jump and bounce. Red paint would let you run fast. And BLUE paint would let you stick to any surface, wall or ceiling.

The student projects are available as free downloads. Google them, they're fun.

[Yzacata]

ADHESION GEL!

[BLANKNOTING]

@Valve *"Repulsion Gel"-Blue (Bounce) *"Propulsion Gel"-Orange (Slipping) *"Conversion Gel"-White (Integrates) *"Watpulsion Gel"-Clear (Normal) New!! *"Glupulsion Gel"-Yellow or Purple (Gravity) New!! *"Droversion Gel"-Black (Hole)

[Eeldium]

What could have been!

[MintBIRDIE69]

fell sick :(

[ThePhoneUpdate]

That actually is very disorienting, would have really overcomplicated the game I think.

[dragonassasine]

awesome

[wliang69]

Nearly vomited @_@

[CaptJiggles]

download?

[daser245]

uhhh the cube is magical.

[TehRavenclaww]

The reason they removed it is because people got sick while testing the game.

[sedme1]

I can't wait to add this gel to the spot reserved on my keyboard reserved for "bind toggle b ent_create_paint_sticky" or whatever

[bamahacker01]

you run this on the previous version of the glados potato?

[LegendBabe1]

are you walking calmly on a fing wall?

[omglollookitsmeh]

WTF? How do you get that!



[killers4563]

ITS SPIDER-woman???

[PSPHaxxorPlayer863]

It took my until 0:30 to realize he was on the wall O.o

[FoxWolf87]

Anti-Physics gel.

You know those pesky laws of physics?

Well we here at Aperture have created a gel that throws all those "theories" right out the window!

Just don't swallow.

Your body needs physics.

Our good friend Quincy learned that the hard way. Yep, that's not ketchup on the floor. Incidentally, don't lick the ketchup on the floor.

[soren86x]

@FoxWolf87 The Johnson is strong in this one!

[Aarone2004]

this is not added to the game for 1 reason

this gel dont make none

[Megamatt215]

In small amounts, this would've been awesome. Climb up a wall and jump off to get extra momentum, and therefore make epic jumps.

[CrisTheHunter]

All they needed to do is not let it disappear hit the floor, and you would know where everything is, almost.

[Noey145]

i have lost me O.o

[felinoel]

@Noey145

Aren't you right there?

[Noey145]

@felinoel its because this wall-Walking after watching this for few seconds not knew if im on the wall or floor xd

[PoweredByFlow]

Valve wanted a gel like this in Portal 2, but it made some of the testers sick, thats why they removed it.

[rayonator500]

WICKED!!!

[ChickenWingses]

MY HEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAD

[luririciano08]

SPIDER CHELL! SPIDER CHELL!!! MMM... MAKE PORTALS!. SPIDER CHELL!

[YOUNGGUNNER360]

My head hurts now, but I could handle this gameplay, maybe not if it was 3D though.

[ferarry13]

DOWNLOAD LINK! PLHEEEZH!

[keavoncp]

It was removed due to the fact that many play testers felt nausea from playing with this mechanic. It would be nice if it was included in the Portal Authoring Tools (is it?), though no, they will likely never include it in official amps. They don't want to discourage players who are weak in the stomach (like my mom).

[Taruxas]

This is why portal 2 sucked as bad as it did: Valve was afraid of making it hard.

Just add a three dimensional compass to help with the orientation and it's a solid concept for a DLC.

[ajuicejemas]

You know, it's understandable why they didn't put this into the game. I'm getting disoriented even looking at this video.

[Ozimul]

It's cool but I can see why it didn't make it into the game. It's very disorienting and some puzzles, frankly, are too easy with it.

[emilons97]

@Ozimul but it wouldn't be used in all puzzles now would it?

[Ozimul]

@emilons97 True. But we all know people would find ways to put it where it didn't belong...

[emilons97]

@Ozimul that would be VERY hard to do unless you use cheats and/or mods... right?

[Ozimul]

@emilons97 Yeah. But people will do anything sometimes...

[TheDoomAlpha]

@Ozimul But this is Valve we're talking about.

They'd find the ways to make things fifty times harder with something like this.

The disorientation would only help.

[SilentGinja]

@Ozimul Valve would come up with an interesting and challenging way to implement it without making it too easy. It's Valve, for buddhas sake!

[Scavengingwolf]

@Ozimul thats why u make new puzzles that fit it and possibly make a entity (besides the cleaning gel) that gets rid of the sticky gel so u can balance the test out

[TheDarknezz73]

@Scavengingwolf It's not cleaning gel, it's water, just a little fyi

[Scavengingwolf]

@TheDarknezz73 theres actually a bunch of people calling it cleaning gel for the way it looks

[LiamsayWHAT]

@Ozimul Yes, but you can make a testing chamber in Co-op where you have to time the gel going flying and someone jumping with the cube in unison, so you can stick the cube to a button on the wall. OH DEAR GOD, I'M BEGINNING TO THINK WITH PORTALS

[kanokarob12]

@Ozimul Im sure if they tried they could make NEW puzzles with this Gel.

[superbowserjrchris]

My God.MY HEAD IS HURTIN!!!!!!!!

[BurningYj]

The reason it isen't set ingame is becouse people got dizzy from the gel

[omgWolfslayer801]

mind blown

[spidnok]

MY HEAD HURTS

[jollythefish54]

thats a gravity gel

[marccox08]

So a concept from Tag: The Power Of Paint scrapped for this game. :c

[VitorHunter12]

spider chell....spider chell

[Cambrie990]

@VitorHunter12 Does whatever a Spider Chell does.

Why can I imagine GLaDOS Saying that.

[FoxWolf87]

@Cambrie990 Because she's probably hard at work making a Spider Chell.

[Cambrie990]

@FoxWolf87 Ohyes. Indeed. We need that.

[absoluteblkade3]

I can see why they didnt put it in the game. Ive seen people play the game be stupid enough this would make the stupid people go crazy.

[spinvudu]

I didn't get motion-sickened.

[dotoro3]

i'll call it confusion gel. :)

[LanteanKnight]

This would have been awesome :D

[MikiEsco]

...I was getting so confused... so quickly.

[Alice4351]

If you cover yourself in Adhesion Gel, (Or whatever it is called) can someone ''walk'' on you?

[aurafox1]

Now I understand why it was cut from the game O_O

[black0pslongcat]

@aurafox1 From what I've heard, the game testers found it too disorienting to be flown across the room walking sideways with speed gel and jump gel flying around... >:o I want adhesion gel, testers!

[aurafox1]

@black0pslongcat Yes, I already knew that. I just never imagined how confusing it would seem. 

[VannahWilson]

That's so cool, I would love to see a DLC of this. IIRC Valve didn't include it because the disorientation made players feel ill. But if they included it in a DLC then people who could handle it could have loads of fun with it! Plus purple is pretty. :)

[DarstOmega]

If you could just make the transition between walls smooth I would absolutely love to see this in custom if not official DLC maps. The only problem I see is making sure that you can't place the purple gel where it wasn't intended to go or in a way that "shortcuts" the original path. For example the blue gel is only a problem if it is placed next to a small jumpable gap or a semi-short leg, and orange gel is only a problem if used to pass moving object or if combined with blue gel.

[pixelcraftables]

valve should make a mirror gel that reflects lasers :P

[ZetaVS]

I personally don't understand why people get nauseated. I played plenty of games that involved walking on walls in first person, and never felt the slightest bit sick.

[hopperhelp1]

Gravity gel?

[Toxicity662]

Nice job. That would've been fun to use

[Silvad0r]

Aw man. That totally blows. I would have had a ball with that gel! I love walking on walls and ceilings. XD Here's hoping Valve will change their mind and put it in Portal 3... if there is a Portal 3.

[rockbandmaster234]

@Silvad0r valve cant count to three

[Silvad0r]

@rockbandmaster234 So I've heard. One can dream, though.

[rockbandmaster234]

@Silvad0r we all can dream.

[VannahWilson]

@rockbandmaster234 Yeah, but not everyone is you. I don't get nauseated with those kinds of games either, but some people are quite prone to motion sickness, even if it's only simulated.

[rockbandmaster234]

@VannahWilson this comment has nothing to do with valve not being able to count to three.

[macihun93]

@Silvad0r It'd be enough if they put it back into Portal 2 in a DLC, don't you think? :)

[WhitedevilEE]

@macihun93 yes, this would be so damn AWSOME!!!

But I think the chamber design would be exrtemly hard if you have to watch out for wallrunning maniacs. ;)
