Valve announced today on Steam that the "Portal 2 Perpetual Testing Initiative starts now."
This means that players can create custom Portal 2 levels in a simplified editor without leaving the game. It also allows players to upload them to the Steam Workshop which will allow other players to find/rate/download puzzles to their hearts content.
Mind you, custom content has been around for a long time for both Portal and Portal 2, but you had to know where to get it, and sometimes jump through hoops to get them working in your game. I still want to send a shout out to sites like thinkingwithportals.com, portal2maps.net and MyApertureLabs for providing custom content until now. They've all worked hard to make extending our Portal experience awesome; and have done a great job.
This new effort should make it much easier for all to create, find and enjoy new custom Portal 2 content, and I'm really excited to see how it works out.
So go check it out, and remember, the cake is still a lie... and potatoes are good for us all.
