I have a idea for a new category called cake%

You play the game until test chamber 19 were you see the cake symbol

what do you guys think about it?

i like it, but it seems kind of pointless, cause the goal is the beat the game as fast as possible

Or it would be a normal run, but timer ends when you get "baked" in 19's fire pit.

that would probably be way too close to the normal runs already to be a cat extension

First of all, it definitelly does not meet the requirements to be a category, since it is literally the oob route until 19 and then a portal bump, so I can safely assure that, unfortunately, this idea is never going to make it to the Category Extensions, let alone the Main Game.

Second of all, for any cateogry request, they are probably going to be ignored on the Main Game, there is however a threat on the Category Extensions forums that allow players to request any creative categories that come to their mind.
The thread I am talking about is this one: https://www.speedrun.com/portal_category_extensions/thread/3tiqf
And the rules for the request can be found here: https://www.speedrun.com/portal_category_extensions/thread/zzd25

For anyone reading this, feel free to express your ideas for categories in that thread so that they can be discussed.

speaking of new category ideas, i thought id be fun to do a commentary%. Basically, you playthrough the whole game of portal but you have to hit all the developer commentators that pop out throughout the levels.

i wouldnt think that's necessary. just hit each one and then move on. Like, you might need to reroute some levels to pick them all up
