Portal: Alive & Kicking fan remake release

Overview

The fan-made remake ‘Portal: Alive & Kicking’, developed by Rhubarb & Rhubarb, has launched on Steam. The project utilizes the Portal 2 engine to provide a visual overhaul of the original Portal game, featuring improved textures, lighting, and environmental details.

Key features of the remake include enhanced puzzle-solving guidance and a new dynamic soundtrack that reacts to in-game conditions. While the narrative follows the original characters Chell and GLaDOS, the developers have integrated elements from the sequel to create a more cohesive experience.

Development was marked by delays caused by legal and technical hurdles regarding Valve’s source code and licensing requirements. Although the remake is free to download, players must own a copy of Portal 2 on Steam to run it. Some users have reported difficulties locating the game directly in the Steam store, necessitating workarounds via SteamDB.
