After the release of Portal, fans discovered that the fictional company, Aperture Science, had a very real website in our world. Back then, Valve communicated with their fanbase and created ARG's to immerse them in their next big project.

While I remember the ARG, I never played around with either of these sites. Really cool that they are archived for posterity since so many ARG sites are lost in time when the company just pulls them offline.

I used to dig quite a lot that website. I managed to backup one of the first flash files from the site for the community. Man it's been YEARS. Even the most complete videos on YT still miss quite a few stuff.
KEEP DIGGING. IT'S NOT OVER.

3:31 Gnome Chompski is Officially part of the Portal

4:14 Gnome Chompski is acting like Gman. Always watching the player!! NEW THEORY!!! The "G" in "Gman" stands for "Gnome" man and gnome chompski is in the briefcase of the gman and in half life 3 gman will open the briefcase and reveal that gnome chompski was in it and gman disappears and chompski starts to talk and it will be the best scene in gaming history

8:44 The 58th cake is "Vanilla Crazy Cake" which may be a reference to a removed GLaDOS voiceline, which is basically an extended version of the intelligence core dialogue.
GLaDOS would repeat "Vanilla crazy cake" multiple times before moving on with a bizarre cake recipe.

Oh wow this brings me back, used to mess around on this site in highschool (literally half my life ago, god I'm old). Love the video, thanks for showing all this!

17:20 there's also text on the website, but it's black on a black background. If you select it, you can read: Content on this page requires a newer version of Adobe Flash Player.

Also some details i saw on the application form, it sometimes has flashing letters, which would make the sentece: cake is a lie
It also flashed a ASCII picture of a cake once for me

I mean recently the creators of Portal have talked about wanting to make a third game and even a movie, they just need to get a team together so there's still hope. Correct me if I'm wrong but most of Valve's games were made for mainly the purpose of trying out new technology. I mean Portal 2 was made for improved graphics, Half-Life: Alyx was made for VR and now we have the Steam Deck so possibly we could get a full-on Portal 3 for the console~

You are my favorite lore channel!
your content and lore breakdowns are amazing, and not jumbled up to confuse me at any point.
Your content Helped me overcome my Insomnia and getting through nights that I felt no hope.
Keep up the masterpieces!

Ted

Btw, there exists an extension called ruffle that emulates flash so you can probably view the website.

You are my favourite Valve (especially half-life) lore channel. Even the tone of your voice matchs the mostly sad nature of Valve games.
