"In 2008, the largest particle accelerator ever created, the LHC at CERN's particle physics lab in Switzerland, was activated for the first time. The research obtained from this experiment has revolutionized the way we think about science. Un-answered questions that have puzzled man since the dawn of humanity are finally being answered. Are there extra dimensions? What is dark matter? Is time travel possible? Epsilon Experimental Sciences Research Facility aims to discover the potential of this whole new world of science, and you have been appointed as the primary test participant."

Going with what seems to be the current trend, I've made my version of a portal game. The challenges are based around solving tasks using various fictional technologies discovered as the result of the LHC experiment, primarily wormhole manipulation. Other methods include gravity shift, time reversal, and general cognitive dexterity.

I started this a while back and planned on coinciding it with the release of Valve's Portal, which coincidentally was around the same time CERN was planning to activate the particle accelerator. Unfortunately Epsilon still wasn't ready by the time Portal came out and the LHC still hasn't been switched on, so I decided to leave it until now.

Thanks to Geier Arnold for the original soundtrack, and for tirelessly helping out in the beta testing process.

NOTE: If you are experiencing problems with lag while freezing the ball, try turning off the ghost rooms by pressing G.

Very well done, the game play is great and the graphics are pretty cool too, I noticed you stole some audio from Abe's Oddysee but still, good job.

"Mindblowing"

date: August 15, 2008

This game has got to be one of the best flash games I've played in ages. There have been a lot of dumb little games blocking the path of good ones, but this? This is just pure awesomeness. Epic. 10 Stars isn't enough to say how great this game is. And if anybody disagrees, I'll rip your head off.

"The world blew up, is that a good thing?"

It was a fun little brain teaser, and I loved the end. But what did it mean with, starting phase 2? Hmmm? A clue to a sequel maybe?

"Wow"

date: August 4, 2008

this game is awesome. it's got great physics (except for one thing), great graphics, and awesome gameplay stuff. I had some trouble on the second to last level though. It kept getting stuck on corners and bouncing back and forth till the level ended. other than that, awesome game!
