Apart from being nerdy, the above video is incredibly, supremely awesome and I can't imagine the mind that constructed it.
While folks have done lo-fi versions of "Portal" before, this is pretty much unbeatable...until someone manages to recreate the game using only clockworks. The video is quaint and the beginning, but once he reveals that you can actually look through the portals and it shows up on screen, the mind begins to boggle.
The developer's handle is Cymon, and this isn't the first ASCII gem he's produced. Check out his Games section for nearly 20 different titles created using the simplest of graphics.
