PortalMod
by Snowy Shack
PortalMod brings the Portal franchise to Minecraft through a Portal Gun, portal-linked test chambers and matching decorative blocks, all built for Forge 1.16.5.
What it does
The Portal Gun is the mod's central item, and it places linked portals on surfaces so a player can walk between two points. The project is aimed at reimagining the Portal experience inside Minecraft, and besides the gun it adds a range of features taken from the franchise. Chamber Lights can flicker, Chamber Signs and Platforms are configurable, and Beams add more structural options.
Snowy Shack built the mod so that survival play and shared worlds are both supported, which makes building and solving test chambers workable in a survival world or with friends on a server. It also includes a cake and a set of decorative blocks: white and black panels in many variants, several kinds of stairs, and Iron Frames for structural builds. Four other catalog mods require PortalMod, among them PortalMod Mod, Portalmod: Glacier, Portal Tech+ and Paint Gun Mod.
Snowy Shack publishes the mod for Forge only, with 1.16.5 as the single supported game version. Servers that run it need every player to install it too. The source code and issue tracker are public, while the code itself is licensed under All rights reserved and is not open source.
