Portal-esque puzzler; looks like there could be some decent puzzles in there.

(obvious alpha demo, but the premise is there)

That had me ing, so I take it I would enjoy the game

The portal bit giving a new perspective at the end I didn't quite get; maybe it's obvious if you've played Portal?

How does making one portal "as large as possible" give a "new perspective" for the other, smaller portal?

Cool concept. Artistically awful. Harsh lighting and uninspired level design. Here's hoping that they hire a few level designers and artists who can make things a little more interesting and they'll have an instant winner.

It's a tech demo.

Yeah saw it yesterday. Looks promising. Judging by the number of different ideas they put in the tech demo, they could actually make a full game out of it.

Many of these games turn into one trick ponies and get boring half-way through. Q.U.B.E. is a bit of an example of this.

There was a game similar to this that was a FPS but the puzzle aspects of it were all done with 2-D platforms where you controlled a little guy to get across. Forgot the name though.
