![]() A chocolate bar ( anything here works really, I used Baker’s semi-sweet baking chocolate and half a bar was plenty.3 cups sifted cake flour ( I have no idea what the difference is between cake flour and regular flour so in my personal opinion use whatever the heck the you have in the pantry). ![]() ¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder, plus a little extra for pans.1 ½ cups (3 sticks) unsalted butter, plus a little extra for greasing pans.As some of these were hard to get our hands on we went with just a chocolate cake. Note: We decided to make a simplified version of the actual recipe from the video game because the cake from the game includes: fish-shaped candies, alpha resins, fiberglass surface resins and volatile malted milk, 12 medium geosynthetic membranes, 1 cross borehole electromagnetic imaging rhubarb and more. Here’s how to (sort of) make the cake from Portal that you would only feed to your close friends and never to your co-workers or anyone else that you don’t want to kill. So, I purchased all of the ingredients, pulled my best friend away from the definitive edition of Tales of Vesperia and we started working in my tiny kitchen. For some reason, I thought it wouldn’t be a total disaster. You know, the one that’s a lie? That one. And that got me thinking it could be fun to do that – but with food from video games rather than movies. They also have this cookbook that has recipes on how to make things from movies. I can’t tell you how many pies, muffins, brownies and cookies I’ve eaten from living with someone who depression bakes.Īnyway, my friend has some experience in the kitchen where I don’t. And we’re millennials so, as you’d expect, we’re depressed a lot. That is, they bake when they’re feeling depressed. My best friend does this thing called “depression baking”. Now that all of that is out in the open, I decided I’d try my hand at something. I like to cook, but usually I’ll screw something up along the way or I’ll skip four or five ingredients I feel are ‘suggestions’ because I’m not made of money and who the hell actually needs all those spices? Plain is the new spice. And if I’ve really gone postal I’ll skip all that and use marinara from the jar. If I’m feeling crazy, I’ll even put some pepper in there. ![]() Sometimes I’ll put butter and Parmesan cheese in my pasta. It's highly recommended that fans of the series check out Kyd's work, especially the work he did for Freedom Fighters, a third-person shooter from last generation.The most complicated thing I cook on a regular basis is pasta. One composer that's worth mentioning is Jesper Kyd, who did work on the Assassin's Creed games. Along with graphics and gameplay, music is essential to setting the mood of a game just like in movies and televsion. Though the main protagonists of the game don't seem to speak English – or any normal language for the matter – so the possibility for a duet is slim.Ĭoulton's success with 'Still Alive' goes to show how important music is to gaming. Portal 2 is also clearly designed with co-op in mind, so it's possible this new song could be a duet. Will his new song take its rightful spot in the credits of Portal 2 and lead us into Portal 3? Let's hope so. The song played during the credits of the original Portaland set us up for the sequel. It makes you wonder what Jonathan Coulton has in store for Valve's Portal 2. 'Still Alive' was simple, catchy and a blast to sing with friends. Speaking of PAX, those who wish to attend might want to order their passes for the March convention, before they're sold out. It's an experience that warms the heart and one that this gamer hopes to relive at PAX East. It is in my pocket."Īnyone who attended a gaming convention after the original Portal release, have undoubtedly sung Coulton's previous hit 'Still Alive' in unison with their fellow gamers. If this plane goes down, the Portal 2 song goes with it.
