The Puzzle Creator (also known as Puzzle Maker or Editor) is a part of the Perpetual Testing Initiative in Portal 2, a DLC released on May 8th, 2012[1] allowing the creation of single-player test chambers within an in-game map editor.[1] The Puzzle Creator was first mentioned within The Final Hours of Portal 2, "[An in-game level browser won't be of much use unless] Valve figures out how to make designing Portal 2 maps an easier process. It has a plan there too, it comes in the form of a simplified level editor [...] a Photoshop for test chambers".[2]
The "Puzzle Creator" does not have a single official name; Valve published a blog post on the October 27, 2011 referring to the editor as the "Puzzle Creator"[3], later referred to it on the blog post of April 27, 2012 as "Puzzle Maker"[4] and simply calling it "Editor" in-game.
