Valve identified the problem to be the space above the fizzler. The developers removed the second fizzler and simplified the layout of the room quite a bit but most of the playtesters were still getting stuck on it. This proved to be too complicated and almost none of the playtesters could solve the puzzle. Originally this room had two fizzlers in it and was divided up into three distinct areas. This map was consistently the one that most of the playtesters would get stuck on and the developers tried various things to make the puzzle easier to understand. When slowed down, the sentence reveals itself to be " and methodically knocking people’s hats off-then, I account it high time to get to sea as soon as I can.", an excerpt from Herman Melville's novel Moby-Dick.Īccording to Tejeev Kohli, Valve needed a puzzle that would demonstrate the different effects that the fizzler has on the game. To accomplish this, she needs to use the small hole in the glass to create portals on either side of the chamber so that she can move through them with the Weighted Storage Cube.Īt the start, the turbines of the Enrichment Center malfunction and GLaDOS has to temporarily leave, giving to Chell only the "fast" version of the test's explanation, which is an incomprehensible sped-up sentence. In this test, Chell has to find a way of getting a Weighted Pivot Cube past the Material Emancipation Grill, and then use it to reflect the Thermal Discouragement Beam into the receptacle to open the exit. Remember? I told you about them in the last test area, that did not have one." ― GLaDOS "This next test involves Emancipation Grills. Getting the Weighted Storage Cube onto the Super Button without touching will also unlock the "Drop Box" Achievement. Getting the radio to the Ratman den causes it to play a Portal-like hidden transmission, which unlocks the "Final Transmission" Achievement. Unlike previously encountered radios, the radio in this chamber plays " Still Alive", like the radios in Portal. The Aerial Faith Plates will only take Test Subject to a small ledge initially, so they need to create a Fling in order to continue on to the exit.īefore the Weighted Storage Cube can be received through the Vital Apparatus Vent, several items from the maintenance areas of Portal, from later areas of Portal 2 or from the co-op campaign drop out, including a chair, a Defective Turret, two Edgeless Safety Cubes, a working radio, and a CD.Ī Ratman den can be found near this Test Chamber, near the portalable surfaces requiring Flinging. The goal is to get a Weighted Storage Cube from the Vital Apparatus Vent above the first Aerial Faith Plate, over to the Super Button near the exit on the other side of the moat. This test involves more advanced use of Aerial Faith Plates. I have to go to the wing that was made entirely of glass and pick up fifteen acres of broken glass. Have fun soaring through the air without a care in the world.
