The kid is 7, almost 8 yr old. They asked for Roblox. I said I would install it if they finished the original Portal from Orange Box. Challenge accepted.

I will keep a thread about it.

@caffeine Great idea! But isnt this machanically challenging? I remember scenes, where i had to replace portals while being in a long jump.

@beejay I'm going to play with them all the time and help with the tricky shots if needed.

Besides, the kid loves tricky platform games like Celeste and Geometry Dash.

@caffeine Thats very cool! They learn this stuff so fast. Not comparable with our first gaming steps back in the days. Okay, there just weren’t that many simple games...

@caffeine Oh, wow. I'd have played that too, i guess, but a) it wasnt released yet and b) i didnt have access to that many games. Took me AGES to get DOOM, when it was released.
