Latest News: Stop, Think, and Refresh!

It's been a while since we last updated the mod with anything. Since the release of Blue Portals almost a year ago, we wanted to keep building on it. Adding new elements, ideas, and creativity. However, the life of Blue Portals wasn't going to be a long one because of many factors. Namely Portal 2.
After the release, we took feedback from the community and spent the next two months fixing the campaign's major problems. We shipped the major campaign update ahead of schedule and shipped Extended Play afterwards in March. Later in April, we shipped Conversion Cubed, a small one-map project testing out a new element. After that, Portal 2 took over our focuses, spawning Portal 2 projects such as A Little Higher and Alive & Kicking.
It's now been almost an entire year since we shipped the original Blue Portals, and over three years since the project actually started. From a simple trial-and-error map pack to a full mod, we just HAD to do something for the mod's anniversary. It's time to stop, think, and Refresh.
Blue Portals: Refresh is the official closure on the development of Blue Portals, and the conclusion to the campaign mode. "But what about UP?" you may be asking. Refresh is replacing UP, as UP had a lot of problems that couldn't be fixed and generally wasn't as pleasing as we had thought it was. Unlike other Blue Portals installments and content, more people from rHetorical (we're no longer the Blue Portals Development Crew) will also be working on the project, increasing the development cycle.
For November, we'll be actively updating this page with screenshots, music, samples, videos, and news posts. You know, like the good ol' days. Let's start... With these screenshots!
That's it for today! With any luck, we hope to get this addon shipped by the 30th. If not, at least before the new year.
Stay tuned!

What made Portal great was while it was certainly challenging it was easy once you figured out what to do. The main problem with basically any Portal mod i've played is that you know what to do but no matter what you do you can't do it. Any Portal mod that requires crouch jumping, having two portals next to each other and forming a circle that makes you go higher is just frustrating to play in my honest opinion. Sadly this mod falls in the same category as Portal Prelude and Gamma Energy, really…

I only give it that few points because it's mainly about jumping!
You have to jump here an hour and there! You have to think for half a minute to get the solution but half an hour to xecute it, because its only about difficult jumping that has to do with a big load of luck! not more. Many ideas are awesome but that jumping sucks and ruins everything

There won't be a Blue Portals 2.
Read Reep's blog and check YouTube for videos, screenshots, etc. of what we DID do.
I didn't get that; are you trying to say that "blue portals: refresh" is canceled?
That is still going, its just going more at a slower pace because of more people, and they were having issues with some configurations at first. But now, the issue has been taken cared of.
What is he saying is that there will not be a Blue Portals for Portal 2.
Are you still going to add some of the new features seen in Blue Portals 2 for the Blue Portals Refresh?
Ever since we decided to drop Blue Portals 2, our decision on what to do with the series is kinda cloudy. We want the series to continue, but we want the whole modding experience to be fun and attractive like it was developing the campaign and Extended Play.
We are tossing ideas back and forth, and just thinking about things at this point.
Oh, thanks for your help! :)
I like this game concept.
pretty nice.
will try out as soon i can.
I am so excited to play Blue Portals: Refresh! :)
good job
Oh, thanks for answering.
