and game mechanics offered by the original Portal 2 assets.

The Paintsketball pops out of center-court. Utilize paints and portals to carry it to your basket and score!

Thanks for downloading Coop Paintsketball! I hope you enjoy it.

Why do you use a cube as ball while there are spheres?

I assume because the ball doesn't bounce, so to get the bouncing action...a cube covered in bounce gel.

Some of my Portal 2 maps || Mini-Faith || Careful Cube || Vertical Reach ||

The ball bounces when governed in repulsion gel, I've seen it.

Because having a cube as a working basketball is awesome and more relevant to Portal humour/style.

Well, that's a point. Did not try the map yet, just saw it on a screenshot. I don't have a partner for coop-game-maps atm, gonna play it when my mate got internet back though.

btw I "like" how you put a readme in there for some smalltalk but not even telling how to install the map or why the heck you want the user to put custom non-map files into their portal dirs. I personally hate having custom files apart from the bsp or vpk

...alrighty then. I was only releasing it here, and as a WIP, so I didn't think to add instructions. However, I've updated the text file to include installation directions and file descriptions.
