Portal: Survive! Explores The Final Moments Of Aperture Science
Half-Life and Portal have been frequently used as the backdrop for fan films. Portal: Survive! takes us to a moment not often seen, though: the moment of GLaDOS' awakening.
The film was created by Colin and Connor McGuire at YouTube Space LA. The pair state that the entire production budget was under $500, including the GLaDOS prop created by Angry Dog Studios' Jimmy Burns.
You might recognize the one crafty scientist from the Portal 2 tie-in comic called Lab Rat. You can read that here and watch Portal: Survive! below.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
