There is a demo around, yeh.
But a demo of the "new" PortalPrelude by Buttsfredkin or the demo of PortalX by Builderboy ?
I own: 83+ ; 84+SE ; 76.fr ; CX CAS ; Prizm ; 84+CSE
Sorry if I answer with something that seems unrelated, English is not my primary language and I might not have understood well. Sorry if I make English mistakes too.

The Portal X demo. But Portal Prelude is also by builderboy ;)
(Q: Portal Prelude is just a name for the demo I hope?)

No, Portal Prelude is the official name of the game now.  PortalX was always just a working title XD And there was a closed beta release to a few select people for testing purposes, the next demo should be as soon as we get the level editor finish, along with a few more levels and features.

Sorry, I do not like the name.
(I do not know, but did you name this the same as the mod on purpose? )
By the way, when do you think the level editor gets finished? (Can't wait to create mah levels)
Also, (maybe this is a bit late-ish) feature request: Can you implement those timed buttons (ie, the effect lasts for x seconds). That would add a lot more puzzling.

The name goes along with the story ^^, and the level editor is going to be finished when it gets done, no sooner or later :P And probably will not implement timed buttons.

Are you planning on releasing the source code ever, or do you wish to keep it closed-sourced?

I will probably release the source code for Portal Edit (the level editor) but it's a little bit of a mess anyways :P so I'm not sure quite who would benefit, but hey, maybe the compression/decompression stuff will be useful or some other technique.

UPDATE on the level editor side: Level editor is complete! I will PM you, BuilderBoy, today or tommorrow with the exec, source, and a readme. I'm not sure exactly what else needs to be done, but I really think that levelpacks should always be in archive. Can you add functionality that lets Portal load level packs from archive?

Correction: Builderboy has done excellent work ;) He did like 90% of the work, it the level editor counts as 10%
