The Trap by gufftan
You play a guy who makes a miserable mistake an traps himself. Now he must escape this "trap".
The File is quite big, so it might take a few seconds to load.
You walk with the arrow keys and jump with the space key.

Overall fun, would have liked to see a bit more variation in the kind of puzzles (More use of "push button, die, respawn" mechanic perhaps to encourage experimentation more?) but the level design was overall solid and entertaining. Ending was a bit anti-climactic though :P
Good job on the audio, and I had fun running through the rooms. There were a few deaths I felt were undeserved and were more of a fault on the platforming mechanics, but no big deal.
What pulls it down, however, is the sometimes pixel-perfect jumping needed, the fact you NEED to die at several points (not good) and the text-messages stopping the game.
The whole portal vibe isn't really there for me. I was expecting voice overs instead of signs.
The game has OK mechanics and nothing is really special aside from comparisons to popular games.
