sometime I might be fixing it, but I bet most people will only use it for Photo programs (like PhotoShop) :3 If this is an ARG and not an April Fools prank, there’s still a lot of work to be done, so get to it.UPDATE: I just tested it on Word and it seems to cut off from above and below. One theory states that Valve is trying to lead-in to the April 19 release of Portal 2 with the idea that GlaDOS is somehow invading the digital world (and these games). Outside of Cogs, other titles now feature weird glyphs and and other aspects that don’t seem like part of a potato joke.Īll of the discoveries are being chronicled on this wiki. If you play again, I sincerely doubt you can do any better.”Īs Cogs runs, the score given for gets lower and lower, until eventually it becomes 0 and the message is replaced by odd text and symbols. Your score is “x.” I bet you didn’t even know I was keeping score. Everyone gets lucky if they play long enough. After beating the level, the game writes: “Well, look at that. The best example so far is in Cogs, where entering “potato” on the main screen unlocks a new level called “” and some very GlaDOS-like messages. Other updates are just plain mysterious, but potentially related to Portal, leading to the idea that there’s an ARG here. The ball in The Ball‘s title screen has been changed into a potato, Super Potato Boy was patched into the world of Super Meat Boy, and potatoes are now scattered around Killing Floor‘s levels. Some of these updates are potato references that don’t appear to extend beyond the tuberous crop. Secretly, it may have also introduced a new Portal-related ARG, with players discovering strange new updates in each of the 13 titles.
The bundle features 13 games such as Super Meat Boy, Killing Floor, and Amnesia: The Dark Descent. On April 1, Valve innocently unleashed a game bundle on Steam called the Potato Sack. Steam’s Potato Sack bundle features 13 games, each with mysterious new updates that reference Portal.
