In the [[Portal developer commentary|developer commentary]] of ''Portal'', players learn that originally, a [[Heavy Duty Super-Colliding Super Button|weighted button]] was used to open the far door of [[Portal Test Chamber 11|Test Chamber 11]], but playtesters found that they would get stuck searching hopelessly for a [[cubes|cube]] to place on it. The floor button was then changed to the pedestal button, thus removing the cube association, but since the ticking timer sound while the door was open had not been added at the time, playtesters continued to struggle realising a portal had to be placed through the door while open. | |||
