As time passes and the capabilities of video game consoles and PCs continue to improve, the gaming community often dreams of remakes of their favorite games that improve their quality, be it visual or gameplay. However, occasionally we come across Demakes who imagine games on past consoles, like this one from Portal for Nintendo 64.
The port of Portal for the Nintendo 64 is called Portal 64 and was made by James Lambert, who presented his project this weekend. In a video posted on his YouTube channel, we can see that Lambert managed to get the Portal Gun working on Nintendo 64 hardware, a big step for his project.

James Lambert’s video shows us the Portal Gun in action and it is possible to download the latest version of its demake on Github. Also, in the description of the video, Lambert said that he has also made great strides in the game engine behind the scenes, so his Portal demake looks very promising.
The first time we saw James Lambert test his Portal demake was two months ago, when he showed a graphics test of Portal on the Nintendo 64. The following month he showed a simple physics test, where he tested the operation of two portals. static.
