Here's the v1.1.0 Complete Installer for Portal: Prelude, an unofficial prequel for Portal. This new version is shipped with more than 80 bug fixes and additions, along with slightly easier/less frustrating first levels. Warning! Savegames are NOT compatible with the previous version. Your progress with chapters unlocking is saved, but not savegames.
The story revolves around the pre-GlaDOS epoch, even before she was plugged in. At this time, test subjects were monitored by real Aperture Science employees whose work was tedious, lengthy and repetitive. This is why they decided to build a great artificial intelligence that could both replace them in these difficult tasks, but also take responsibility for many other tasks within the complex and compete with Black Mesa's superiority. All employees of the Aperture Science complex are now eagerly awaiting GlaDOS. Maybe even a little too eagerly, as the upcoming events will tell...
Release Notes:
Of course, the goal was not to rework whole parts of the game after the release, but we tweaked a lot of chambers, all of them in fact. Especially, the first levels to avoid immediate frustration (that was our primary goal). Then, we used all the criticisms we received to build a better game. All the levels/challenges were slightly modified, that's why the patch is so huge.
