The portals have had several changes in design before the final release of ''Portal'' in October 10, 2007, as evident in some trailers and screenshots.<ref>[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TluRVBhmf8w portal orientation video 1] on YouTube.com</ref> Even Earlier development screenshots from ''Portal'' revealed that the original colors for the portals were light blue (primary-fire) and purple (secondary-fire), with the portals more resembling like rifts ripped into a dimension than the simpler oval designs in the current series. Later, the purple color was replaced with red, akin to [[P-Body]]'s secondary-fire in ''Portal 2''. At some point, the developers decided to maintain the blue and orange color schemes previously used as portals in ''[[Narbacular Drop]]''.

* '''Reportalling''': With precise movements, the player is able to boost their momentum when traveling through two portals placed on the floor by using their primary or secondary fire key as they exit the primary or secondary portal, respectively. This is caused by the portals pushing the player away from a portal if the portal is re-placed somewhere else (or in this case, in the same place).
