Portal: Revolution (mod)

A fan made mod.
Not to take anything away from them but other than not being on an official YouTube channel I did think this was a brand new game given it says 'official'. A bit deceiving.
- It also uses the name "Portal" in a way that feels official, too. If it said "Revolution: A Portal mod" it'd be fine.
  
  How does it “feel official”? It’s just what a lot of mods do:
  Portal: Prelude
  Portal: The Flash Version (though this one is a standalone game)
  Half-Life: Echoes
  Half-Life: Caged
  These are just a few I can think of, you can find more on Steam and ModDB.
- Thanks for the heads up.
  @nanoUFO@sh.itjust.works please remove the word 'official' from the title. Even though the video uses it, that use is wrong.
  What about this is 'official' in any way? It makes me not want to play the mod for their manipulative use of the word in their advertising.
  Edit: thinking back on it, I doubt there was any intention of manipulation. Most likely just ignorance on the implications of using the word.
  Edit 2: The developer changed the video and removed the word 'official' from the title. The video also includes the text 'Portal: Revolution is an unofficial, fan-made modification for Portal 2 and is not with or endorsed by Valve Software.'
  
  It having official in the title has nothing to do with whether it's a Valve game or a mod, though. It just means that it's a trailer released by the developer themselves and not some random person, that's all that official means.

  You think they're trying to trick you into
  check notes
  playing a free mod?
  
  This is all you failing to understand something very simple.
  It's the official trailer for the mod, that's all it means.
  
  The fact that this thread has more up votes on the "remove the official from official trailer" posts baffles me. The first line of the description says it's a mod.
  
  I changed it, thanks
- I was surprised to see another Portal game being announced, but finding out it's a fan-made mod actually has me more interested.
  Fan-mods are where you can see some neat shit because they're not trying to maximize profits, they're just trying to make something cool.

This is not made by (or in association with) valve.
It's effectively a mod built on portal2

Just when I thought I was out, they pull me back in

I'm always amazed of what passionate people can achieve. It happens that i also love this game. Nice !
- Actually just started another playthrough of Portal still alive! I just hope the cake is real this time.
  mmmmmmmmm cake
- I really miss the times when mods actually were encouraged by the gamedevs. Yes there are games that still encourage modding but it's still not as widespread as it was so a couple of years after Half-life was released.
- from the video description;
  “Portal: Revolution is a free to play mod for Portal 2. This fully featured original campaign plays before Portal 2 in the dead and decaying Enrichment Center.”
