An excellent remake for an already exceptional level, "Aperture 1p9" creatively transposes "Aperture" back into 1.9, managing to replicate the magic and jaw-dropping effects of the original "Aperture" while still abiding by period-accurate restrictions. It's a transposition which I greatly appreciate for its faithfulness to the original. Trying to imitate a part as technically complex and visually impressive as the 3D part within "Aperture" seems almost inconceivable, especially to try and copy it in an older update, but "Aperture 1p9" miraculously pulls it off. Every single part has a striking resemblance to the original in spite of the imposed limitations. Some parts might not be as hypnotically stunning as the original without the help of shaders, camera movements or move triggers (such as the famous film reel part), but I have to respect "Aperture 1p9" for how far it does push boundaries.

Obviously, as a very faithful remake, it's not going to conceivably compare with the original (as any of its novelty has already been used up by the original "Aperture"), but it's an excellent showcase of how limitations really do breed creativity.
