Backstock takes place after the events of Portal 2, as you are one of the test subjects found in the human vault at the end of Portal 2 co-op.
You are not being tested my GLaDOS directly, she has divided up the thousands of test subjects, and assigned them to other personality constructs for testing.
You will go through the newly finished Aperture Science's Testing chambers, face new test solving techniques, and see new testing elements. Aperture has truly reached its prime.
Throughout this mod you will encounter new game-changing mechanics, and chamber solving styles. Since you are a new test participant you will relearn the basics, and many basics that Portal 1 & 2 taught. when you complete Backstock you will naturally think in ways you never would have before, and you will think with portals. More importantly than discovering this new aperture, is remembering who you are.

The last year and a half since our mulligan has been full of ups and downs, lulls and rapid development. Today I'm writing an update here, because I know I said we'd keep you all up to date, but I certainly haven't done that.
Acts 1,2,3 have their puzzles all mapped out, and only now have small adjustments to be made. Act 4 is under development. Act 5 is in a Flexible position, and might be moved to a secondary release. It will depend if we want to shorten the story to fit it into one act, or do a wrap up at the end of act 4 leading into a secondary title.
I'm hopeful that this whole experience will be wrapped up and available for play in the Spring of 2017.

After three years of development, and over 50 levels mapped, we realized that there was a problem. Unclear/unset goals which lead to disorganization...

dead mod
Glados pointed out that all the vault test subjects died in a week, sill the mod end with the protagonist dying?
That was probably just another lie.

Why do dead mods always simply go silent without any sort of cancellation notice?
