I also found getting the energy ball in more frustrating than puzzling. Still, a very good effort, and I did love the rotating room.

If you do play it, know that the first switch you press unlocks that door you can see. It took me a long time to figure that out, because in Portal there’s not normally a concept of ‘locked’ and ‘unlocked’, only closed and open – and the switch doesn’t open the door.

From Tom Francis’ blog, which is what, I presume, Jon is referring to.

Those Oblivion gates really look like vaginas, don’t they?

Nah, although that strategically placed flame makes them seem a little goatse-esque.
