I think I was able to complete the Challenge level with all the sentry guns with only the steps to get off the elevator and back on. But motion-sickness prone people need not apply for least-steps challenges.

I'm wondering how you are doing this, Not using teleporters right? Because going through the portal counts as a step.

It's a cube dude. If it talks to you then you'll need help beyond what AT can offer.

For the challenge maps, do you have to do all of the parts at once? Like use fewer than 4 portals AND take fewer than 30 steps? If not then just use a ton of portals and take like, 0 steps.

The enrichment center promises to always provide a safe testing environment. In dangerous testing environments,
the enrichment center promises to always provide useful advice. For example, the ground will kill you, avoid it.

Test protocol requires me to inform you that you must absoutely not touch the liquid
substance below you. Doing so will leave an unsatisfactory mark on your personnel file, and kill you instantly.

What Level was that in???

Time spent "beating" portal: 3.5 hrs.
Total time spent playing portal: 14.5 hrs.

This game was really well done and funny as hell. Hopefully they'll be able to add new levels, but not sure how you can make a sequal to this game.
