Portal: The Second Slice is a mod that aims to recreate and improve upon concepts from the lost “core hub” era/version of Portal 2 in Portal 1 and extending on them.
This mod draws its art style inspiration from the Portal 2 animation tests. It prominently features the intense wakeup sequence of carcass GLaDOS, fully functional and set for further enhancements. This mod ambitiously recreates the entirety of the “pre-hub” chapter, accompanied by a revamped rendition of the “hub” chapter from the beta, which is also remade from scratch. Also, There are four distinct cores, each equipped with custom voice lines, there will be 6 maps for each testing track. Complete with a new, conclusive ending for the mod.

In short, Second slice isn't really a beta recreation It's more of a beta reimagining, like dark interval and raising the bar Redux

A Demo for this mod is coming soon…

Hello! Sorry being gone for so long, I've not stopped updating this project, don't worry.

In my absence I did learn more about the source engine, e.g. Hammer; sound design; soundtrack and music creation. And now I know make a mod properly, hopefully the second slice won't take a decade to complete.

I've been changing the style of the Pre-hub, as you can see from the new screenshots on this page, thanks to my new play tester “Rip Rip Rip” which helped me fix up the style in these locations. Basically, I've overhauled a bunch of old PTSS Pre-hub maps, making them more visually pleasing and trying to get that old portal 2 beta Liminal/dreamy feeling captured in these maps with the help of shovel's ambient tracks.

Anyway, I'd like to share a few screenshots of these new areas, which are fully artpassed.

last time i checked this page it said in the description something like this "demo release date (might change) january or february 2024" btw sorry if my english is bad beacuse im not english or american or anything like that.
edit:you can check on wayback machine and look i get that the team is working hard but there are some inpatient people like me who would really like to see core hub as just a playable demo or something so you could i dont know release what you have done so far or even less and release the full mod when you will finish it
