Portal: System Failure is a story-focused mod for Portal 2 made on the Source Engine. It takes place roughly 15 years after the events of Portal 2 and is intended on expanding the world building of the Aperture Science Enrichment Center. You play as an unknown test subject who suddenly wakes up to find themself in one of the many testing tracks built around the facility. As you run through the course, a rogue AI suddenly hacks into the facility and takes control of the track. Now, you and your new personality core companion are tasked with stopping this new threat before they tear apart the facility.
The project takes inspiration from other Portal mods such as Portal Stories: Mel and is currently planned to be told cinematically - almost as if it were an interactive movie made in the Source Engine.
The mod features an original story with a completely new cast of characters, as well as original music written specifically for the mod.

As of this week, we have a wiki page for System Failure and other Portal/Half-Life based projects made by Spekktrum Studio.
There isn't much to see yet, as it was just created, but those who are interested can feel free to check it out as it might have some information not available elsewhere. Anyone is also freely available to edit and create pages for the wiki, just keep in mind that any inaccurate information or vandalizing will be reversed.

Is the mod still alive?
Yes! In fact, our steam store page just launched (which we will talk about soon.)
I would love to make some test chambers, I've made some in the past with the built-in editor in portal 2, but I've never heard of/made them in P2 Editor or Hammer, do you think I could still help with level making? Or is it a requirement to make the said level in the said software(s)?
We are actually looking for people to design puzzles using the built in editor for Portal 2. So, if you are interested in applying, you just need to join the Discord server and send a response to the forms link.

If there's voice acting roles I'll be there. Composer I could be, although I have minimal music software and hardware to cometh with, although I'm very optimistic.
Unfortunately, we aren't looking for anymore voice actors or music composers at this time. I wish you luck on finding a project to work on in the future, though!

i can be a puzzle designer but i suck tbh
Well, right now we can take all the help we can get right now, so even if you think you aren't very good we'll take it over 'no help at all'!
If you are still interested in volunteering for the team, you can go ahead and join the Discord server and we'll be in touch.
